2025/26 David Moyes

[LeeCarsley]

Palace now moving for Pierre Sage, who challenged PSG for the title with minnows Lens while playing dynamite football but Moyes is really the best we can do, how can we expect to compete with giants like Crystal Palace

Some of the Moyes haters conveniently forget that between the first week of November and late December Bournemouth went 11 games without a win. So if Moyes had been sacked before the January window how many would have been drooling over Iraola as his replacement then?

There's no such thing as Moyes haters, we're just fans of Everton and want what's best for us. You should try it.

You're just being silly. Our rivals who won the league title two seasons ago think he's good enough for them but he's somehow not good enough for us, a team that finished 13th twice? Iraola is also not some unknown name, what he did at Bournemouth he also did at Rayo Vallecano which was why Bournemouth chased him and hired him even when stable name Gary O'Neill (who arguably had more of an argument to stay than David Moyes does) kept them up. They got dogs abuse for it but now they're reaping the rewards of their forward planning and vision. It doesn't have to be Iraola. It just has to be a more compelling plan than sticking with a manager because you're terrified of a relegation battle from three years ago now and because he finished 4th over 22 years ago.

You lap up this propaganda from the club eggs. I bet you would have believed Stalin was improving the Russian economy every 5 years. Moyes is a disaster and is in danger, along with the CEO and owners, of passing up a great opportunity to drive the club forward

You needed 65 points for Europe in the 24/25 season which higlights:

A)What a great opportunity we just frittered away
B)How low your levels of expectation for Moyes are. Would your bar be this low for another manager?

Yeah, Dyche.

C- is way too generous.

Good name for the end of season DVD though!

...which is all well and good, but is anyone trying to tell me that our scouting network and data analysis went through everything last summer and then said "Tell you what we need - Tomáš Soucek"?

It's only because Soucek didn't want to leave West Ham that he isn't an Everton player right now.

Surely that will be titled "Happily Dissatisfied"

It's only because Soucek didn't want to leave West Ham that he isn't an Everton player right now.

Or… The only right back in world football who is a better option than playing a CB there all season is Kenny Tete.

My only hope is Slot looked like he was staying and lpool insiders had told the press he was staying, then boom sacked!

I get it, you think Moyes is doing a good job, but you probably need to back it up with more than "let's hope for the best" if you want to be taken seriously.

What are you going to do that isn't that?

 

[Blue peter]

I was referring to a specific time in the season. Not at the end. But the Moyes haters won't be bothered by that.

You don’t win anything based off a good run or a bad run mid season. Season’s end is where it counts.

 

[Blue peter]

Yet season before the run in form was one of the best in the division

That’s why people were more supportive of him. It’s not hard to understand is it? Moyes ppg salvaged a season where we were potentially going to fight relegation without buying anyone. He therefore gets the plaudits despite people’s reservations about him.

This season keeps our best players, adds two regular first team midfielders/attacking options and strengthens our options up front. Keeps £50m worth of new young talent on the bench (which he says he has final sign off on before we purchase them), significantly reduces his ppg average with us compared to last season, and then sh1ts the bed when presented with a very realistic opportunity for Europe.

Respectfully, I think you need to really analyse his performance because some of your arguments hold no substance at all.
