2025/26 David Moyes

[RD2910]

Ward Prowse would be the least likely ( imo )

Yeah, no chance, that would be insane.

If there's any truth in the article, something has to give. Have the club brought him in line with progressing the club's young players with high ceilings, or are we going to start signing the likes of oven ready Soucek's. We can't carry on buying highly rated prospects and having them rot on the bench.

Mate we're Everton, you know the answer surely?

KDH mate.

If it was up to me he'd have full control.

He'll spent a fortune on Grealish and all his mates from West Ham.

 

[BluePaul86]

I’m pretty sure at least one of those four will be here next season.

My money would be on Delap and White.

50million on Grealish too.

I would have White Delap is a fraud though

Was an advocate of the youth movement thing 10 months ago but if your big takeaway from this season is let's keep signing 19 year olds then idk what to tell you. Id much rather have a manager that finishes in Europe not playing them than finish 12th with a few kids in the hope of selling them for profit like Bournemouth and Brighton

One swallow does not a summer make. Rohl has not been good enough to force his way into the team based on the sum of his appearances.

Tim isn’t anywhere near as good as Gana. Alcaraz is also not good enough to be starting. The people who claimed he should start at 10 ahead of KDH have been proven wrong.

What you've written above basically underlines how its not a meritocracy.

Rohl had a good game and so shouldnt have been banished immediately after.

Iroegbunam may not be as good as Gana but his performances during AFCON should have made the shirt his to lose and sure enough Gana was poor after returning.

KDH is nowhere close to being a 10 and his best performances have come as a CM this season. He was motm for every game at CM while he isnt at ACM is he?

He should be CM and then who are the 10s? Alcaraz or Dibling.

I wouldn't mind that

It's a shame it seems like it has to be one or the other and there's literally no middle ground anywhere to be had. Imagine if we'd done the same as we have but had a younger player play a half when we're chasing a result/winning already, unfathomable.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Why, for real? What's the fascination with Delap for?

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

I am? Sorry for not wanting him here for eternity how bad of me to think ahead.

It was a joke!

Europe this year
Sign players 27-30
Europe next year
Sign players 27-30
Europe 3rd year
Sign players 27-30

Can you see a problem emerging?
No Europe 4th year then what do we have to show for it apart from an ageing squad with limited resale.


Europe this year
Sign players 18-23 & a top 25+ year old starter

We can expect ups/downs with the young lads but over time we'd be building for european finishes every season mid-long term.

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

KDH mate.

If it was up to me he'd have full control.

If West Ham had just let Moyes do his job without interference they’d have Maguire and McTominay and be nowhere near the relegation spots.

People don’t appreciate how dysfunctional WHU is due to the bizarre behaviour of David Sullivan. The only reason Moyes was there at all was because of David Gold.

We have 3 years of Europe to show for it

Moyes has done an excellent job, but yes, his complete mistrust of young players is a very real concern, especially when he leaves and we will have a very ageing squad
