2025/26 David Moyes

Stabilising yes, same as Walter Smith did after we nearly got relegated under HK3. I wouldn't say we're progressing, playing slow football with slow players.

….improvement from the basic state he arrived with is called progression. I’d imagine his record in his 2nd spell favourably compares with others despite arriving with us in a mess. Progression ;)

Not sure who a ‘progressive’ alternative is, certainly be a major risk taking somebody else at this point.

2 new Fbs a replacement for McNeil/Gana a new striker different profile to barry. And that would drastically change the speed..
As much as you need speed, you also have to to have the players with the speed of mind, where pace isn't the be all and end all.. Or you can be stuck with a lot of headless chickens..
 
I have to ask, so unless Moyes puts on a player who has done nothing every time we’ve seen him and a 2nd player who has done marginally better you would class it as us not going for it???

I could understand if every time we’ve seen Dibling he has shown us something But he he hasn’t, and George is still very raw.

Seems strange to pin it on two kids who’ve done nothing. And before you say has Dibling been given a chance, he has and he hasn’t produced a single bit of good football in the times he’s come in the pitch. Moyes doesnt trust him yet or feels he need time to develop.

What fair chances have Dibling and Aznou had?

Fact is both have been given the same treatment but Dibling he's thrown in and dropped because he couldnt not use him due to the fee.

Armstrong is enioying the same treatment now.

Our youngest 3 in the squad.

in terms of McNeil, hes had good games and hes had shocking games...makes no difference to Moyes.

On merit you drop him and Barry and instead use a different 2 players.

i'd go with our 2 England internationals.


I struggle to see where “performances in games are based on merit” and “bringing George and Dibling in” can exist in the same sentence Zat? I agree 100% with you that he needs to change things up, but so far Dibling has delivered no performance in a blue shirt that merits inclusion (in my opinion at least). I would much rather he plays George on the left and goes with Illiman up front personally.

When McNeil (inevitable starter) is goosed, i.e. 25 minutes after kick off, I would prefer he brings on Rohl or Charlie, who will at least run directly at the opposition (as will George hopefully). George, Rohl and Alcaraz have all flattered to deceive in the little game time they have had, but Dibling hasn’t even done that. I fully wish he would, but he just hasn't mate, and can’t be showing it in training, or he would at least get some cameos surely?

He'll pick the 11 he wrote down at the start of the season and put Barry in for Beto.

It's a major risk keeping the status quo if we were to spend another £100 million without an aligned transfer policy.
