2025/26 David Moyes

He always has. Can you imagine SAF, Wenger, Mourinho, Klopp saying this.
They kick up a huge fuss so they get decisions in the next game. It's not rocket science.
Those managers had the platform in the media to kick up a fuss in a way that would actually make a difference though. Managers of other clubs would be portrayed as constant moaners complaining about an imagined sleight. I know all fans want to hear their managers get worked up about the same things they're annoyed about, but I'm not sure there's anything anyone can do about it. That's the main problem with refs and VAR.
 
Is that why the most progressive clubs - Bournemouth, Brighton and Brentford all have young managers?

Don’t think it really matters what age the manager is, it’s whether they play to win or not. Moyes plays games against the sky six to protect the draw he starts the game with. Ancelotti is an older manager but plays to win. Ferguson played to win as an older manager.
 
Another week at Everton with another load of words. That’s all it is just talk. Years and years of talk about how we’re in the way up, how we’re building, how next season will be different, exciting times for Everton fans who deserve better etc.

I wish for once everyone at the club would just shut up and actually take some actions which result in progression rather than the same managers and same players doing the same things over and over again getting the same results.

We’ll talk about an unprecedented summer (again) and I’d wager a fair bit that next season the bulk of the team will still be the exact same as this season. Keane Gueye McNeil Tarkwoski Mykolenko will still be getting a load of game time.

We’ll go out the cups to the first decent prem opposition. We won’t win a derby, we won’t win any big away games.

Then we’ll say all the same stuff again next summer.

Nothing but talk.

Villa are in a European final, Palace are in one after winning a trophy last season. Newcastle have won a trophy and played CL football. Bournemouth and Brighton are probably going to be in Europe. Even West Ham won a trophy.

What’s Everton’s excuse? An unprecedented summer apparently of a new rebuild and we’ll probably end it with absolutely nothing yet again behind one team that sold half its first team in the summer and another that lost its manager and all its best players.
 
Moyes PR machine cranking up.

He did really well last year and seemed different - more progressive on the pitch, more honest off it.

He's defaulted into Moyes 1.0 for a lot of this season.

There has been progress this season, being safe in Jan/Feb has felt good after the trauma of last few years.

But just a bit more positivity at home we'd have had Europe/maybe even CL sewn up.

I can live with another year but letting him spend on players who's best days are behind them will be a big mistake imo.

A lot of our fans are only interested in having a season(s) without 'fear'

Look at them lot across the park fuming because of this season and want rid of the manager, whilst still presently are reigning PL champions and are in a CL position.

Meanwhile we are happy to have 'stability' the levels in mentality and ambition is night and day and this has to end, not just with the manager but the club as a whole.
 
All these cringey words that keep getting thrown out don't help things.

….says something negative, gets criticised. Says something positive, gets criticised.

Saying that, I do tend to agree that actions speak louder than words but at least he’s saying what the vast majority on here say about mid-table not being good enough.

Best say nothing, just do the business next season ;)

It's not just what he says, it's just the never-ending stuff that keeps getting thrown out around the players aswell. Less is more in certain cases.
