2025/26 David Moyes

[davek]

It's not well done Moyes for a job well done, no it's a BIG LIE.

BIG YAWN.

Mate, check out what Moyes had been telling the media for the last week and a half about expectation levels over Christmas given "we dont have the squad depth", "we're short of numbers".

I wasn't saying that, he was.

He did what he ALWAYS does with Everton: manages expectations - even after he had a huge investment in the squad in the summer.

Moyes acts for Moyes. Never forget that.

We all know what he did when he left here for United. He took the piss out ion this club. It's always him selling Moyes. And any player or club that gets in the way will be thrown under the bus.

Ilm counting the days until this Judas leaves the club. Again.

Needs backing from both the board and the fans.

If we get a result against Brentford with this squad, we're on for something substantive this season.

This is a great example of the beat down on expectation levels.

There's nothing wrong with the squad, as we saw last night, and we're playing at home to Brentford FFS - 2 points behind us in the table.

The dumbing down of Everton hasn't bottomed out yet.

That's a win all day long with what we have. I expect a win and no one should expect less.

Don’t know why I’m biting. But either you are blinded by hatred or just being ignorant.

If you can’t see we have a depleted squad and are struggling for numbers then it’s one of the two.

We had 2 senior players on the bench last night and one of them is a striker who can’t score. Patterson and McNeil are back to starting games.

We will have played 4 games in 10 days when we play wolves and have no option to rotate players or freshen the team up.

Whilst other teams can bring on 5 senior subs in a game etc.

He does, but to be fair - he did ref he wants us in Europe and he reaffirmed it last night by saying he wants us in and around where we are now come Feb/March. Or something like that.

He did caveat by saying if we lost we could be 15th mind.

My biggest gripe with Moyes will always be his knife to a gunfight - belief is massive in sport and it has to start with the manager.

Truly nobody else could possibly do any better.

Exactly, he always leaves himself with that wriggle room to point to if things go sideways.

The facts are that we are a vastly different proposition to when he was here last, but still we struggle to impose on Moyes his new task: to get us facing forward at all times and get us - with huge backing and the boost of a rejuvenated club with a world class stadium and stable ownership - right back up this very poor league.

It's ingrained in Moyes to operate with the handbrake on. He'll never change - and I can confidently predict that we'll never achieve under him because of it.

 

[ToffeeTim]

I would have hoped for 6 points from these 2 away games but 4 points from back to back away games is never a bad thing.

 

[snipellis11]

What a job he’s doing, unbelievable, from where we were before he came in. Sorted us right out.

We had still a game day squad of 15 outfit players that cost circa £250M to assemble.

We were and we are not 'short of numbers'.

A club is short of numbers when they struggle to get 11 out.

We have never been short of players this Christmas period.

 

[duncs pigeon]

Great result with a threadbare squad, certainly no strength in depth. 100% down to Moyes this, brilliant. 3000 fans chanting his name last night cant be wrong

And you know that how?

I sincerely hope you realise how ridiculous you sound. If not then that’s worrying.

Cry more, your gaffer has taken his second spanking in the space of a month to Sir Dave with even Patto being able to rub it in his face this time

I dont even consider you anything other than a low level Dyche hater at this point.

Why do you hate him so much...and what happens when Dyche isn't an issue anymore?

Last January (21st to be precise) you were having a go at the owners for not sorting out our threadbare squad. We beat spurs on the 19th Jan with that squad which you described as threadbare. Despite us fielding 11 players and having 5 senior players on the bench.
