By us as fans, absolutely. I had mates in the away end last night who were over the moon, I watched it in a pub last night and stayed for like 4 more drinks after full time and have been watching endless replays and videos of the away end.

But, I just hope the people inside the club see the bigger picture.

I jumped up when the goal went in but I'll be honest the second half did little for me. Backs to the wall scraping a result to move us from 14th to 11th? I've done that enough. I get the circumstances were what they were, but I go back to what I said. What is the goal here? And then I guess following on from that, how are we going to achieve that? I don't see it right now even a little bit.

You're not an Everton fan. You can pretend you are but you're not. I watched it with my two daughters and their eyes were absolutely glued to the screen in the second half. It was an absolutely epic victory against the odds.

The fact we had a man sent off and players were ill-disciplined that early in a game underlined a team was sent out on the pitch without proper management of them.

Obviously that Keane v Gueye spat has been coming. How has Moyes not seen that and ended it in training?

As I said above: we could easily be here this morning if Cunha had started for them with a rabble of players and a loss.

There is no redeeming moment for Moyes in last night's result. He got it wrong from the off and the rest was just throwing all the chess pieces in the air to see where they landed.

Disagree entirely fella
 

Credit to Moyes last night, started aggressively on the front foot which is what we have wanted him to do for sooooo long.

Would be interesting to know why he changed tack after all these years.

Also interesting to see what he dos now that Gueye is out, some of his better teams arose from forced changes. Hope Alcarez gets a chance as a 10 but expect he will just opt for Tim. A real shame Rohl is out.

Also wonder why we chased Dibling for much of the summer. Thought Moyes was big on checking character before buying if attitude is an issue.

I just see this as a complete misunderstanding of how a club like ours needs to go about building a better squad. We don’t need to spend years “rebuilding our reputation.” We need to find players with the right profiles interested in playing in the best league in the world and making more money in the mean time while they position themselves to play for even more money and prestige after that. Once we have that pipeline established we can work on turning it into consistent European places and hopefully trophies.

Bournemouth were in the championship 3 seasons ago. Gary O’Neil kept them up. And they sacked him because he’s not good enough. They’ve bought a whole host of players and sold a bunch more. That’s how it works. You aren’t going to make 100% good signings. It’s a volume game to some extent. You can’t be afraid of failures. Target the profiles for what you want the team to be and hope you find enough successes to get it together. We have the advantage over a lot of clubs in that if we do get a talented team together we have the support to actually keep it together maybe. Palace did similar with Roy. They could’ve rode that until the end of time. But what’s the goal?

That great team Bournemouth who are 1 point ahead of us. Jesus. Football clubs aren't blank slates. Everton have a load of historic issues to undo which Bournemouth don't.

First side in PL history to beat Man U at OT after going a man down.

Handling of Dibling has been very frustrating so far, but I completely get why he didn't bring him on last night.
Lad is young, likes to take players on, and might not have the experience and guile to see the game out.

That said, Dibling should have had far more minutes before tonight.

Embarrassing take on what was one of our best performances for many, many years!
 

….this is THE prime example of a pre-match post expecting a defeat and then planning to use it post-match to say what a disastrous manager Moyes is. I just love it when one of @davek’s set-ups falls flat on its face :lol:

Everything about yesterday's win shows the nous and experience Moyes has to finally grind out a result away at one of the popular clubs. One can even dream that this can be a turnaround and we can start putting up a proper fight in similar games.

Moyes has managed to give us a strength and togetherness and it was on show last night. I am honestly not sure if it was because United were terrible but our attacking unit was very sharp in the first half.

Gotta say that about how the players seem to smile and enjoy themselves. KDH saying he would run through a brick wall for the Everton fans. That kinda stuff matters. And Moyes should be getting a lot of credit for it, too!
 
It took 18 attempts, but he finally picked up on the trick. He had to play with 10 men.

He'd still be the Man U manager if he took a player off the day fans told him he was getting sacked in the morning.
