Match Thread Everton 0-1 Manchester United - Monday 23rd February 20:00

[Simon Buttle]

Gutted for you with that team, though you never know.

A win with that team would be a top night out.

Its 310am for me and im struggling to stay awake. If he'd put out an exciting team i may also not have managed to stay awake.

I'll have to watch the 90mins tomorrow.

Hope it turns out to be a good trip for you



Theres literally none of us thinking that he's performing a tactical masterclass is there?

Is it simply that we think hes gone for negativity and 0-0 and hope to sneak a draw by putting in a defensive minded set of players compared with any others available?



Thats not the worst for me.

Hes gone with Keane.

Hes gone with Gana meaning KDH is 10.

Hes paired Gana with Irooegbunam.

George has been dropped so weve lost pace.

Theres nothing i can see which says hes trying to win a game of football.

Surely the last few games performances with daft selections should have led to him being sensible...but no.



It would appear that one, or more of the players or coaches have had enough with these team selections based on madness.



No one asks the questions though.

Hes had so many questions to answer all season and no one has called him out.

None of the local journo's will ever do it, I've said before there is a hangover from the Kenwright days and they are all still petrified if they call him out that their club access will be withdrawn.

I know Rohl was an obligation to buy but I'm starting to think that there must be a way out of the deal if he doesn't play enough games, can't think of any other reason why Moyes refuses to play him

 

[blueblood]

Is this another "Moyes doesn't know what he's doing, I know better" thread?

Give that we’ve only won 4 home games all season I think it’s absolutely reasonable for his team selections and tactics to be questioned.

 

[ClausThomsen]

Meh. I don't hate that line-up as much as some. If we had actual quality in the squad at LB & RB then I'd be miffed about it but I can see the logic behind it.

Would sooner have Rohl in there for either of the DMs though.

 

[brittcop1]

Hes a frikking tw$t...the full backs we have, he benches...got to have his three 6 footers at the back...then because we are playing at home and want to have a go, we at least start one of our young wingers...oh we dont? Play someone else out of position?? Of course. He better get something out of this game because the dour effin c$nt has set us up to play backs to the wall, at home, against a team who managed to get a point at West Ham last time out. If i was playing defense for Man Utd, Id bring a book to read. Horrible has been of a manager....

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Maybe his plan is to play 3-4-3? who the F knows!

 

[N0L1M1TK]

Can’t be arsed defending him anymore.

Why is our best centre back not playing centre back?

Why is our best centre midfielder not playing centre midfield?

[Poor language removed] off you stupid [Poor language removed] get him out

 

[pfim]

Moyes with toys. Maybe

 

[miami]

Utd will be looking at our lineup with relish. They know we’re setting out to nullify them rather than attack them. Expect us to be penned in our own half for most of the game.

 

[varnish]

I had a faint bit of optimism.

Then I saw that line up.


I really hope I’m getting vaulted at 10pm

 

[blue in oxford]

I think your right when we have the ball then drop into back 4 when under pressure

Maybe his plan is to play 3-4-3? who the F knows!

 

[Clarky cat]

1.1.
They score first . We equalise 2nd half after changing things up.

Beto for Barry?

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

He is going all in on set pieces. Branth, big tim, Keane and tarks - you just know that if Jake was available he would be shoe-horned in as well .

 

[Furey1878]

3 fullbacks on the bench (and one who has been exiled after a good cameo) and we don't start any of them. Armstrong on the wing again...

Moyes boils me blood.

P.S. the last few games I've come on here to moan about the team selection we've got a result.

 

[wearethefamousefc]

Away coaches not in the usual place when I walked past and the away section is currently a bit empty. Are they being escorted in?
