2025/26 David Moyes

For what?

For this to be a successful season

Lads .
The big oil sees us a computer game
He has no emotional attachment to the club . Wins like the other night mean nothing to him unless the aesthetics and process looks good on a pie chart .
He is not really a football supporter.
He is a football enthusiast.

I think if the league stays as turbulent as it has so far there’s a good chance we could get Top 8 (with better injury records etc.) but it shouldn’t just be an immediate given because we have new owners. A lot of the squad is still relegation fodder.

it’s like some have no patience

10th isn’t enough sadly

your mental

Ambitious target, certainly.

Trying to create a narrative that it we don't get top ten or Europe that Moyes has somehow failed after having to replace half his squad that was relegation level last year? Come off it.

We haven’t finished 10th or higher since our Carlo and James Rodriguez season 5 years ago you tit.

Again this is kinda my point though. We should be trying to build up the quality in the team and if we were doing that finishing basically anywhere is fine. But we’re playing loanee Jack Grealish, James Tarkowski and Idrissa Gueye every week. The tactical progression doesn’t really exist either. This is not indistinguishable from a cerca 2009 Moyes team. The only way to make progress is to win a lot. 10th isn’t enough.

Hopefully we pick up some good prospects in the draft . USA

It’s just so weird to me how the fan base both wants the team to improve enough compete to win things again and also laughs at the idea that there may actually need to be a real plan for how that might happen.

Buy another striker though right? That’ll fix it?

Absolutely ridiculous the manager is playing players that win us matches.

I can see why you're upset Ig.

He’s not good enough but the principle behind it would be right
