2025/26 David Moyes

And don't let him anywhere the list of transfer targets.

KDH mate.

If it was up to me he'd have full control.

My preference was to move him on at the end of the season, but if that wasn’t on the cards then they had to offer him a new deal which it seems like they’re doing, so fair play to TFG for not sitting on their hands.

My concern is that we’re torpedoing our chances of building an exciting, younger squad to take us forward, but with the results we’ve had this season I am not gonna die on the “Moyes Out” hill.

Very noble of you

He might have some work to do here now raising the morale of Ndiaye and Gueye.

What a carry on!

Gana has looked better to me in recent games, fair play to the old boy. Ndiaye's finish against Chelsea should've cheered him up, too No-one getting near that.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

I am? Sorry for not wanting him here for eternity how bad of me to think ahead.

In the long run we're all dead as Keynes said. The only important season is the current season.

Also Grealish!

Also Barry, Dibling.

It's the job of recruitment to give Moyes players like Ndiaye, KDH, Garner, Grealish and we'll progress fine. It's not like he doesn't get the best out of technical players, they've just got to be of a certain age to play regularly. I think Moyes would've loved a midfielder like Onana for example, someone dyche could not utilise at all.

The bottom 2 weren't top targets.

The bottom 2 weren't top targets.

But still targets we spent a huge amount on.

I wouldn't fully trust Moyes with this as for every KDH/Grealish/Soucek you have two or three flops that cost a bunch of money but amount to nothing. We also no doubt pay quite a bit for scouting (I assume, as we haven't seen them do anything lately).

If we do, it’ll be the biggest mistake TFG could make. I get that some people still think it’s 2009, but judging by his record in the transfer market since leaving Everton, any Blue, whatever they think of Moyes, should want him kept as far away from transfer decisions as possible.

Last summer was grim. Full backs a joke. Little room for Rohl, and Dibling not the player we needed. Barry raw. I wasnt in favour of the gamble on Jack, either.

Fast forward 8 months
- were competing for Europe
- team is working hard
- KDH , Garner, Ndiaye absolutely great. Harrison a prospect.

Someone posted a week or two back our AVG PPG with Jack was 1.7 and 1.2 without... In that respect we/ Moyes might've been a bit unlucky.

I'm still baffled by the summer business, and some of the performances in Jan/ Feb...but if we make the conference or higher it's probably his detractors that have to eat humble pie ( inc. me )


Europe would be amazing.

But I don't have a season ticket and it's easy to say, "focus on Europe" when you're not forking out to be at HD week in...

Also Barry, Dibling.

Is Barry on the bad list? He's played in every game, you'd have to admit that's probably a lot more than what they would have expected from him at the start of the season, and he's scored a few on the way. He might not play like it yet but that amount of action has to be a positive for him to build on. Hopefully the recent shenanigans can be swept under the carpet so he can progress.

 

[COYBL25]

If Moyes has his way we'll be watching Ben White, Soucek, Ward Prowse and Delap next season.

I’m pretty sure at least one of those four will be here next season.

My money would be on Delap and White.

I'd put my house on one of them not being here.

Ward Prowse would be the least likely ( imo )

He also scored a winning goal with his arse, but he's a bit of a donkey. Maybe he'll come good at some point but currently he's not suited to the Prem at all and I have no idea how we scouted him etc., as that was obvious from his highlight reel Not touching the off-the-field crap he's still poo more often than not.

If there's any truth in the article, something has to give. Have the club brought him in line with progressing the club's young players with high ceilings, or are we going to start signing the likes of oven ready Soucek's. We can't carry on buying highly rated prospects and having them rot on the bench.
