2024/25 David Moyes

7 in which positions?

I make it 5-6

2 wingers
2 CM’s (potentially 3 if Armstrong is loaned)
1 RB

I would say 6 think we are crying out for a number 10 but rather we got two CM's and two wingers and make number 10 the priority next summer.

Was Desperate Dave a little less Desperate last night, or has he been told to tone down the negativity?

Or we could just not play with a number 10? I know that seems like a totally alien concept to this football club.

No that's fair enough not many of the best teams do anymore.

A functioning midfield without a 10 puts pressure on the wide players, a position that need addressing massively.

Dibling is a talent but we are going to need someone to come in that will add assists and goals from the off, will he do that, is it unfair of us to expect him to do that?

That the hope Matty lad, would like to think we are on a number of players.

I’m grateful to have him this season keeping the players we have accountable and focused on the task at hand, with seemingly chaos and dysfunction going on behind the scenes above him.

I’ve got a feeling the Friedkins might be paying Kinnear and Hammond a visit at the end of this window.

“If we didn’t, I’d have to be confident I can make something with what we’ve got and find a way around it and get results”

He also said this regarding if he wasn’t to get players in which would terrify me.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Moyes is going to be fuming about the Dibling situation

He has said this is the number 1 position all summer and they still haven't got him a player

Club have killed off any excitement and enthusiasm for the new season in typical Everton fashion. How can they be so stupid not getting the manager a fully functioning squad with just under 2 weeks to go!?

 

[John from Bootle]

"We need plenty...well maybe not plenty....we need several in." "I'm hopeful we can add a couple of new faces...but I've been hopeful before weeks ago".

Typical of him in transfer windows. Full of big statements early on then caves in to owners and CEOs who dont make it happen.

We need 7 more in here to have an adequate squad for the coming season. Not "several", not "a few more".

7.

Hmm, I stand to be corrected here Dave, but I don't think that's what he said. What's your source for those words? I've just googled the words you attributed to him and the only relevant search result is your post. Like i say though; happy to be corrected.

Having read bits of the interview myself just now he say's "confident we'll get quite a few in"

“I’m confident we will have quite a few new players in. The bedding in period that we alluded to last week is worrying me because time is shortening down, but I’m really positive that we’ll get quite a few new players in before the window shuts.”

You are dealing with the jedi master that taught boris johnson how to chat crud. Good luck.

As for Moyes, are they back in the UK yet? When are Roma due to fly in?
