2024/25 David Moyes

All true.

People are determined to welcome David Moyes back - and I get that. He did a good job the first time around. But too many forget his fatal flaws - which will eventually hole us under the bough when we are properly competitive again. At 3-0 today, Davey installed his patented glass ceiling. His instinct is not to gamble or to put the foot on the throat of the opposition - it's to go back into his shell, assume the position, and declare "what we have, we hold." Ironically, ceding the initiative is precisely what got us into a needless tight corner there at the end.

Still, I have no illusions with Davey. He is not the future for a truly upwardly-mobile progressive club. But he can do enough to keep us up. I'll take the win with my eyes wide open. It's those thinking it portends seriously better days ahead who will end us disillusioned...
But just to play devils advocate, we all complained about the lack of game management from Tory boy and Martinez.

Agree they were the extremes on that end and Moyes on the other, but I’ll take a little pragmatism over the 11-0-0 formation from minute one of Dyche any day of the week
 

I’ve said many many times this squad is more than good enough just get away from relegation.

Some simpletons couldn’t see past Dyche tactics and as to why they were under performing. He is an absolute disgrace to the beautiful game.

Anyway what a transformation in how you can perform when coached and given the correct instructions.

he’s here to keep us up

lets worry about the future later on
 
Still think Dyche is a better manager now @davek?:lol:

I knew that Spurs were no great shakes and i was confident enough about winning this game.

Has this actually happened, have i seen an Everton team actually score three goals?:lol:
10 Spurs players out injured...who fought back from 3-0 down to almost draw.

Let's not start patting each other on the back too soon, eh?
