That's because he is and that says it all when it comes to our recent recruitment.

Indeed.

FM is our best defender by default it must be said....but it is ironic that the best CB on the books was signed by someone much maligned for fis defensive nous.

In fact, I would go so far as to say I would play Holgate before any of the three on show yesterday and he is also a Bobby signing.
 
How do you figure?

The defence is full of Moyes and Koeman men. The attack and midfield is almost entirely Koeman's players.
Because the Martinez signings needed to be replaced because they weren’t good enough. And the players Moyes left behind were fine at the time but they’re all ancient now!
 
It was one game when the team downed tools and the fans and players wanted him gone. The team/squad he left then trounced Norwich.

We are now getting hit for 5 on a regular basis even at home.
It was far more than one game.

I can’t believe i’m having this conversation!
 
Yep things have worked out great for him.

I don't know if he did. We were one game away from the end of the season. We finished badly the previous year and then were fine at the start of the new year. I have no reason to think it wouldn't be the same the following year.

Ultimately he would have had a summer window to fix the problems and at the end of the day results are the only thing that matters to fans. Had we started well the fans would be back singing the school of science.

I'm not saying anyone was to blame. I also felt it couldn't continue but in hindsight I think we were either premature or late (it should have been done after the derby if at all).
Let's put it this way, he'd have spent £200M more wisely than that clown who just left. Moyes too.

Interestingly the players backed by the fans back then as myself and @davek repeated on a daily basis...are still there after downing tools for Martinez.

I don't think they will do that with Allardyce.
They’re not the same players though. The vast majority of our squad has changed since then.
 
Unhappy with Martinez and Everton then. Unhappy with Everton and the propect of Allardyce now. Being happier or less unhappy doesn't come into it. Either way not happy!
