Moyes post match

The thing that pains me most is the fact we could have won.

I've walked away from derbies in the past thinking 'yeah that was expected' so not being too down, but we had a massive chance today to beat a side which we are better than and **** ourselves.

Funny thing is, in the first half it was the RS who seemed to sit back and invite us to break them down, while looking for counters with Suarez and pace. Daglish knew we were in form, and didn't want to give us any space in the final 3rd. He seemed to want to nick a 1-0 win. Yet, in the second half, when he knew he had to attack, we just let them. The RS played like they thought we were the better team, we had them down, and then we made it too easy for them

TX Bill, as a fellow Yank you will get this analogy. In baseball, you never let a hitter beat you on a curve ball when he can't catch up to your fastball. We should have stayed on top of this team for all 90. Instead we let them get on us. Protect a 1-0 lead for a whole half against Real Madrid - yes. Against that **** team - no.

True.

Make 'em beat you with your best.

If they do, they do. We didn't give 'em our best today. Not near close.
 
Was glad to see h/t myself, as they had been getting back into it. Thought we could regroup and come out with a tigerish attitude in the 2nd. Instead we were half asleep and standing off the opposition allowing them to get crosses into our box for donkeys to head wide.
 
We do the same thing constantly - get a goal and sit back. You have to wonder why, we rarely go on to take advantage of our lead!! And when we do, its when we have Pienaar in the team

Portsmouth, Middlesborough, Birmingham have won trophies whilst Moyes has been in charge.

I see a flaw in your arguement.

Interesting though that all three of those teams find themselves in the Championship now.

I'm not saying that you have to sell your soul to win a trophy.

I just find it interesting for interest's sake.

I knew someone would say that! :D

Selling your soul though? Well, look at Liverpool...

is he a great manager though ? that's what I've been asking myself today

he's worked wonders with us, as a good manager would, but he has won nothing

I love him for taking us from what we were, perrenial relegation strugglers, to an established top half team

that's what good managers do, it's what they are coached to do,
and if they are good at their job, they apply it, and keep their job

but great managers win things, and unfortunately, our cupboard is still bare

Portsmouth bought theirs. That's why they've been in administration twice in the last year or so.

The players they bought, would that make them a better team than ours? I doubt it highly. Our squad has world class ability in it.
 
I don't understand were this good first half has come from. they started off the better side, we looked nervous and couldn't keep the ball. Howard really dosn't help the team with his constant hoofs.

We then seem to settle down and have about 10 minutes were we pass the ball on the floor and we look like we are getting a grip of the game,then liverpool look the nervous team who can't keep hold of the ball.

Then it happens!! we score. liverpool are there for the taking, their fans are stunned and their players heads have dropped.

The match re starts and we (as usual) retreat about 20 yards, we suddenly turn into a non league side who couldn't make one pass never mind string a few together. i thought we have given them a life line. we manage to hang on to half time.

Second half and i am thinking if we keep the ball and start playing like we did in tat 10 minute spell we could get a second and breathe easier. No!! we get sent out to defend and when we have posession we give it straight back as the majority of our players looked terrified to cross the half way line. once again our super manager failed to see what and where it was going wrong and once again he failed to try and change it instead hoping for the gods to shine and we can hold on. the whole everton end could see what was going wrong.

Liverpool wasn't great but deserved to win, probably by more. We on the other hand have ourselves a group of sh1thouse players who are led by probably the biggest sh1thouse of a manager in all the leagues.

I have woke up this morning hating this manager and players more than ever (apart from a couple of players).

People making excuses really are blinded to what happened yesterday. This wasn't a one off, this has happened in every important game we have ever played in.
 
The moment I saw Hibbert taking his tracky top off at 1-1 I thought 'Moyes has been ace for us but this really does take the piss'

5mins later they get the 2nd and Moyes quickly chucks on Anchovy

No gameplan, no plan B

I do think he needs to go(hypothetically) but the real problem is who would replace him knowing that they won't have any money to spend?

Couldn't have put it better myself - I've lost faith in Moyes. He must of put the fear of god into them with his half-time team-talk. We were so negative 2nd half....we looked scared ****less
