2025/26 David Moyes

Plenty did mate, hence the jokes about Dixon and Patterson. Our squad/bench was often so incredibly poor, we had nothing.

Coincidentally, watched Forest yesterday, they made 2 subs at half time. Dont think he ever did that at us.

Moyes has the same problem now compared to other teams - but nowhere near as bad as it was - because we spent a club record amount in the summer. Half of them are sat on the bench.
We also had JOB who wasn't even given a runout, but that's beside the point now as it's long gone.

I'm not surprised he had players to make 2 subs at HT, given they've spent half a billion on the squad and have/had a hilarious amount of players on the books. Still lost and relied on set pieces and "someboydy, do something!" - luckily he has a few of those so it'll likely work out at some point (and probably against us).

Moyes' problems with playing new (and especially younger) players is nothing new in itself though, we knew what we were getting with him on that front. Dibling is frustratingly nowhere to be found, but we get to marvel at the brilliance of McNeil for some reason - classic Moyes selections. We'll probably see him during the AFCON or in an injury crisis (and "he won't be ready" as he's not played), but to expect him to cement a place in the team would be completely out of character for our Davey.
