Naisy?

Lol.

I know he played for Rangers, Dave, but he had an eye for goal and a good football brain. Just had no pace whatsoever and technically lacked a bit compared to the others around him like Osman etc

Starting to think Moyes is just the auld cardie wearing dinosaur we all thought he was.

He did an amazing job when he first came in but he’s being found out now.

Plenty of decent young managers about who could do a job… glasner from palace. Ariola from Bournemouth

Glad we rested all those players on Tuesday for that point.

Naismith was a clever, underrated player with a far, far better football brain than Alcaraz, but nothing like the physical tools

You obviously never saw “Big Stevie” in his birthday suit!

Yeah, all good traits for a successful false one.

Ild start Alcaraz in a false 9 role over Beto or Barry any day.

Imagine Moyes the dinosaur doing that though?

No chance.

Well, well, well...

I should have guessed it

Itls not just me and Elton Welsby mate.

I think you'll find a lot of people would like to see Alcaraz start in place of the two wasters at CF.

Yep. Great call wasn't it?.
Backfired big time.
We are not good enough to rest players at any game.

You are Welsby, Dave, we see you

Dibling and Alcaraz next game please.

Beto and Barry take up a shirt better utilised elsewhere.

Certainly a week where his critics were given plenty of ammunition. The derby no-show, cup capitulation, and now this anaemic performance have laid bare the realities of this squad under this manager. To keep the momentum, we needed to get off the bus at Anfield and contest that match. We didn't. The game was gone when we did. The Wolves game showed the disconnect between the manager's priorities and the fans' aspirations. Tonight was merely the usual failure to push on when holding the upper hand.

We sit ninth tonight. The very definition of "stability". I would never have brought him back, but I don't see him going anywhere until the summer if he has us ninth for much of the season. It's going to be joyless, however. His problem now is he's facing two of the best sides in the league next. Lose those and things could get hairy.
