2025/26 David Moyes

[Drico]

He's balled up up season by not buying a decent CF and wasting loads of cash on players who are injury prone or not good enough in the end in his opinion when he he got them here.

That is abundantly clear.

A CF who can find the net on a regular basis has us about 5th now.

I've been saying for two or three seasons that the PL is dreadful. There's a couple of elite teams that can compete in the CL but the rest are easily surpassable. The fact is that we really are about 2/3 months behind schedule just about breaking into the top 10.

I don't disagree. I have never bought this idea that "stability" should be our aim. The instability we endured was primarily a function of financial disaster. That's, effectively, already been remedied. Moyes proved last season that last season's players were a good base on which to build. We built poorly in the summer, with one or two exceptions. The lack of a striker could be the difference between Europe and mid-table obscurity. It might also be the difference between Moyes staying or going. One thing I will say is: I am happy to see that we have a side that could win pretty much any game. We won't be consistent enough in the league to really make hay, but there is no reason why a cup win should not be targeted. The lack of a striker is less of an issue over six games than it is 38...
