cranky much?

Just don't like Florida. Strip malls, Dengue fever, MAGA and Disney do nothing for me.

it was a pun, based on 'florida man'.

also couldn't get the players he wanted, lionheart Baines couldn't be swayed by an extra few quid.

This has followed Wor Davey around for a long time as well. Maybe, just maybe the players he wanted didn’t want to play out of position for a season and a half of their career?

Like anything else, the reality is not as exaggerated. I went to Clearwater last year and it was very pleasant. That said, I preferred Savannah in Georgia.

It's irrelevant anyway, with my social media history nobody is letting me into the US for at least two and a half years.

Back on topic, Moyes sucks, doesn't he?

They were all pretty terrible for us. I agree with the Silva comment, he came to us too early and with us in a weird place, he's shown himself to be a capable manager.

Now, back to Moyes.......

Pretty much any manager is hamstrung by the players and organisation around them. I think the main thing we should be concentrating on is building up the broader operational side of the football structure.

was a genius when he played Cahill as hybrid, late runner striker in possession, primary presser when chasing the ball.

small world.

Let's do that AND change manager.

Or watch some lad playing out of position in their position every week

You don’t want too much change all at once. The potential downsides are massive. Look what happened to West Ham.

Was great
Everything from 20 yrs ago has been studied over and over again by up and coming managers. Im sure moyes picked up a few new tricks himself but not many

And he’s been banging those square pegs into Steve round’s holes ever since, with not so genius results.
