2025/26 David Moyes

[matty1878]

It was criminal he didn’t get fresh legs into that midfield v Liverpool. But this Moyes and it’s what he does and he’s not changing

and he’s not going

The club needs to start winning big games to change the narrative around it, and eventually win trophies (which is dependent on winning big games)

We’ve got a manager who can’t do either. We need a manager who is going to break the wheel of the last 30 years, not just perpetuate it for another few years.

We’re back to getting our heads patted on TV by kopite pundits because we’re right back in their comfort zone where they want us. Zero threat of winning a derby against them, zero threat of denying them a space in Europe, zero threat of winning a trophy any time soon. No wonder they all talk up Moyes so much.

The day we have a manager all the kopite media and pundits despise you’ll know we have the right one.

100% correct. We also need a fan base that doesn't excuse every single loss away and that starts to demand success.

No one probably is when you have the Billionaire's of everyone else. Rarely anyone else wins anything bar the usual lot

Yep as long as we remain a PL club then everyone certain people are happy. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Stability and progression aren't mutually exclusive

But hold on....you also said 'stagnation'.

Lol.

Are stagnation and progression mutually exclusive? I think you'll find they are.

Did anyone else notice how EFC lost the midfield battle against LFC in the last twenty minutes? Or the fact that once Tim came on against WHU there was more energy and finally game control.

Well DM fails to notice it week after week.

Correct.

He's like a rabbit caught in headlights.

Still struggling with the reading comprehension, I see.

"Equally, I can recognise small signs of progress without being blinded by large amounts of stagnation."

You’re right but since we last won one there is a fairly decent list of teams who’ve managed to get a trophy or even two and a couple of them had won nothing in my lifetime until the more recent success

Newcastle, Palace and Spurs all won a pot last year.

Hes got us exactly where I expected us to be..free from relegation scrap, mid-high up table with outside shot of Europe. No more, no less..
And, I have enjoyed it for one season, to be able to breath and not spend time looking in 2000 page relegation thread.
However, the future beckons and I'm not confident of where he can take us. I dont trust his recruitment after last summer, and I think he lacks the tactics needed for forward play.
Im also well aware of what can happen when you get what you wish for and see west ham skirting with relegation after several failed flavour of the month managers.
