2025/26 David Moyes

[ValBlue]

Before all the in house fighting starts, let me just remind everyone of this.

It’s OK if you think he deserves another season.

It’s also OK if you think we can do better & want him replaced.

For me, I can recognise the good job he’s done stabilising us.

But I think it’s time we showed more ambition. Owners and fans.

Would also be nice to watch better football too if I’m being greedy.

The two aren’t mutually exclusive, both can be true.

You can be happy that we’re not in turmoil and also be furious that a glorious opportunity to actually kick on has been pitifully squandered.

Some are too enamoured with the idea of what ‘a good rebuild’ is, that they reject the one that’s happening in real time because it doesn’t look like the timeline they had in their head.

Overall he's done well since he came back.

We were in trouble last season and mid table obscurity is ok after the trauma of last few years.

But if there was a blueprint of a Moyes season, it's this.

Joyless, cautious football. Knocked out of both cups. Bottled every chance to get a European place.

Yeah, I agree. He did do a good job - that job was to rescue us and stabilise us. It's done now.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Either of them but I'd 100% be going for Glasner, over performed with every team he's managed, got Wolfsburg into champions League, won the Europa and the FA cup.

Personally speaking I’d rather we didn’t take the lazy route of hiring yet another manager within the PL circle

 

[maccavennie]

A team fighting relegation Macca, they would have been cacking it,games running out for them and instead of getting at them from the off, putting them under the cosh, Moyes plays to keep it tight and hope to nick one.

100% Lou. He knows no different. Let a disorientated rs side grow into the Derby so only one side was going to win.

Its his stubbornness relying on the same players regardless if their form dips that absolutely kills us.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Not if we spend 150 million to end up back we were last May

That’s the other thing mate, they may give him a little bit of cash to spend, not a huge sum but enough to keep that stability.

 

[Clarky cat]

Who do we replace him with ?

Billy Mckinlay

 

[Eggs]

You will never ever outright blame him for a loss though, that's exceedingly obvious

….i’ve said he maybe should’ve freshened things up but up until the last minute of the Derby we were on a good run. We hammered Chelsea a few weeks ago and all was well, such is the fickle nature of football.

I’d be amazed if anybody in authority in the club is thinking about replacing Moyes as he’s done a terrific job.

 

[little elfin]

Over a hundred million quid blown in a single season and we’ve got absolutely nothing to show for it.

No improvement in the league, the football is dire, and not one single player has come on. It’s the same old story—all that money and we’re still just spinning our wheels.

 

[matty1878]

Late goals, like against Arsenal & Liverpool. A bit of a pattern.

and that’s moyes fault

 

[blueblood]

If we leave Moyes in charge we’re giving ourselves a real challenge to recruit in the summer. Now we won’t get Europe there’s every chance we’ll face a battle to keep Ndiaye. Any prospective new signings are going to look at the treatment of Dibling, Aznou, Rohl and George and have serious doubts about playing for that manager. Meanwhile you can all but guarantee that Brighton, Bournemouth and Brentford will make shrewd signings that make an instant impact.

I’m bored of us being rubbish and dull to watch.

 

[MondayHater]

Either of them but I'd 100% be going for Glasner, over performed with every team he's managed, got Wolfsburg into champions League, won the Europa and the FA cup.

He’s not coming to Everton.

 

[Ring master]

Losing 3 games late is a killer. But doing it in last 5 has killed us totally. Moyes just cannot help himself with this Barry experiment that has not worked, and never works. Yet he will still somehow try and back him in a backward way without actually saying it

 

[MondayHater]

and that’s moyes fault

He’s always been a rubbish goalkeeper.

 

[Super Kevin sheedy]

….maybe should’ve freshened things up in CM but beyond that, wouldn’t blame him for that. Last minute goal last week, 2-1 defeat today, maybe could’ve had a penalty. Running out of gas, Rohl/Iroegbunam energy might help.

Plenty to play for, done a terrific job.

I’d think a contract extension is still most likely.

Terrific job, Moyes ? Nah, not having that

I'd take the Southampton coach if he was gettable
