2025/26 David Moyes

I’m not Moyes out because we aren’t that far away from last seasons team and squad of players, so I was never expecting a massive revolution. Being nowhere near the relegation fight for the first time in years is a big bonus.

Moyes doesn’t help himself though. He should know by now that Barry isn’t up to it, and know his best team so not getting Beto etc on till after 80-odd mins is ridiculous.

His stance on refusing to play some players doesn’t help either. Dibling, George, Alcaraz etc they could all contribute but no.
 
David moyes this season

Pros

Likely met the seasons objective

Team was solid for the best part

At one point had a likely shot at europe

Cons

Threw away an excellent chance of european qualification

Lost connection and credit in the bank with some of the fanbase

Very rigid with team selection and substitutions

Didn't make much use of young players but perhaps with good reason

Summary.

Probably a par season in terms of expectations. Some good away results but some very poor home results. However really disappointing to not qualify for Europe when it looked so likely and in doing so lost a lot of the fan base. Made excuses during press conferences and blaming referee decisions to deflect the blame. Made poor use of young prospects and lack of use of backup players may have cost him with the end of season poor form.

Persisted with O Brien right back and poor centre back partnersips.

On balance by achieving the objective deserves another shot next season but if a younger hungrier manager is available it shouldn't be overlooked.
Don't give us that BS. Context is important.

If he insists on not playing young talent, then he lives or dies on the fact that those senior 'pros' he picks need to be performing, and achieve something like European qualification.

Spiralling into relegation form for over half a season is a sackable offence. If that was the first half of a season, you would expect the manager to be sacked.
