2025/26 David Moyes

[windymiller]

We had a track record of success in Europe so not sure what your concern is.

Well, success is relative, as your "13th place would be an achievement" and us coming 4th was a greater achievement than Leicester winning the league arguments are a testament to.

He'd ditch us for Arsenal, Chelsea or Barca in a heart beat.

How about Man Utd?

How about Man Utd?

Been there, seen it , not done it

 

[Efcjake]

If that happened we'd be in a great place as he'd of done a wonderful job for us

People would think the same about Ancelotti leaving us for Madrid.

Yes and wind his contract down so he goes to the richest club in the world and we don’t get a penny

I'm not Moyes biggest fan but even I would have to admit that taking us from relegation candidates to qualification for Europe in one season is a staggering achievement.

In those circumstances I think it would be unbelievably difficult ( and unfair) to replace him unless a truly outstanding candidate long term admired by TFG wanted the job and they were prepared to back him with very substantial player investment.

Exactly it will be the new owners decision when we lose its DM out when we win it's what a great job he has done etc - he has done results wise a very good job - entertaining football?

Not really - plus it's better than fighting relegation- I admit that strongly the owners never backed him transfer wise in January - We can debate it all views fluctuating weekly the majority predicted
Mid table - which he more likely will .or even a European place who knows ?

Rather have a Prem trophy than coming 4th

Balancing the league and Europe. It has been a relegation threat for us and a lot of teams and Europe means very little unless you actually challenge and get to the end. Koeman struggled in the league and so did Bobby. Moyes struggled with West Ham. It is clearly a worry.

We went relatively far in 2007/08 and Moyes had us finishing 5th on 65 points. Provided he is backed in the transfer market we'll be fine.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

As you stated in an earlier post he'd have to alter his approach to rotation and implementing subs in how he operates this season to be successful on either fronts

He's done it before. Anichebe and Vaughan played a lot in Europe for us.

We wouldn't he'd leave us mid season and scrambling around.

I think after being in charge for so long he was entitled to move. Different story if you are part way through a project and leave after 18 months.

Not changing a winning side is fully understandable and accepted. Would have been fine with him tinkering with the midfield but he chose not to.
We actually looked controlled and confident, something that we've lacked at home against the poorer sides.
Subs were a little late but tbf he added more subs to the list as the ball never went out of play for about 8 minutes.
Still think Gana should have been pulled earlier. I know he's got a big break now but ffs he's 36 and currently fasting during the day. Mainly because Tim does such a good job and it gets him minutes heading into next season.
8.5/10
Clean sheet and win at home. One major scare. Couple of insane backpasses that he'll probably address in training.

It absolutely is given how much our squad is worth and our wage bill.

If Dyche got 12th ignoring points deductions & 13th is acceptable to you under Moyes after spending £100m & loaning Grealish & Rohl because of the squad worth & wage bill then by that logic Dyche must have outperformed Moyes by some considerable margin.

He is available I believe .

He was tapped up by Madrid...

Ignoring his performance in the following season?
