2024/25 David Moyes

No, its on topic mate. You're now a big fan of Moyes but the vaults says this is what you said about him when he left us when you were posting as By God I'm Blue:



You are entitled to change your opinion though...
Unlike you, I eventually realised that getting so bent out of shape and holding 12 year grudges isn’t worth it.

When he came to try and take Baines and accused Everton of holding his career back I felt it was pretty disgraceful.

However It was 12 years ago and I seriously cba carrying on those same feelings at the age of 56 as It’s not that important any more.

Shall we go digging the vaults for your thoughts on Benitez when he was Liverpool manager?

Nah, because I seriously cba 😂
 
There is no doubt that he has brought in a breath of fresh air, some want all out attack but the 3 games so far have all shown positives.

We should have at least drew against Villa, with the late chance and the penalty decision. Yes, it was not a great performance but there was an attacking intent was there.

That was highlighted, and then some, in the Spurs game. Players with a bit more confidence to go forward, get it into the box and get shots away.

Didn't watch the Brighton game but all in all sounded like a extremely good defensive performance.

For me that shows a bit of flexibility and tweaking the tactics/mentality dependent on who we play.

Under Dyche, all 3 games would have been the same stale, easy to play against, tactics.

A lot of work to do, whether we bring anybody in or not but there are no doubts to the signs that we have a little bit of impetuous and the players are already enjoying the game again.
 
I do wonder what are new profit and loss Yank overlords promised in terms of funds…

We were in agreement you and I 12 years ago on Moyes, as you can see from those posts from the vault.

I've remained consistent.

It's good that you've been able to do what you've done though...

Ok

So how come you don’t allow Moyes the same allowances as you did with ex kopite manager Benitez who called us a small club and tried to belittle Everton?

You backed him to the hilt. No calling him ridiculous names and insulting him like you have Moyes.

I’m sure we’d all love to hear your explanation.
 
Ha Ha Ha.

Did you even watch the way we sat back around our own 18 yard box against Brighton?

It was 'Dyche full strength'. In fact, not even he would have had them that deep.

The Brighton players and fans were rightly appalled with the anti-football on display.

Dont get me wrong, I was glad of the three points, but dont tell me we've turned a corner toward silky football.

Lol.

….i said in a few immediate posts it was a ‘Dyche-like’ performance, in many ways similar to last season down there. I was glad Moyes acknowledged that post-match, giving Dyche credit for the work ethic and defensive structure.
Christ, the Dyche love in goes on, he really did a number on some of you didn’t he?

The performances since Moyes have taken over have been night and day different to what the miracle worker spewed up.

Theres nothing dyche-like about our team scoring goals or holding onto leads effectively, with a different shape, system and personnel involved that wouldn’t have been near the team had Moyes not been here.

Give it a rest lads, he’s gone and good riddance, you can’t talk him into being a good manager, he’s was toilet.

Hope the gasdyching wears off for you soon.

You're either having a laugh or kidding yourself.

The football so far has been more of the same for the most part...and understandably so given the Dyche team was largely drilled to keep it safe. It'd take a pre-season of coaching turn around the mindset and add the players to play another way.

I'm surprised at you mate. I didn't have you down as one who'd drunk the Kool Aid.

@davek

Stop dodging the question.

Can you explain the above please?

Yet we`ve had four players ( so far ) come out and say, that they`re enjoying playing in a more attacking system and higher up the pitch ( or words to that effect )

Which is a swipe at Dyche and a compliment to Moyes at the same time.

Ps - I think you could be heading for a thread ban in this thread anytime soon, as you`re just clogging up and destroying the thread with your bile towards Moyes.
 
Makes me laugh on here, Moyes gets 6 points out of 9 and gets abuse, no doubt anything short of top 10 and a chunk of our fan base will call him a failure.
Gets called a ditherer even though we employ someone else to buy players, DCL and Beto were always off at the end of the season yet Thelwell had no plan to replace them, and Moyes still takes the flak for it.
When our fans take a dislike to certain managers or players they never ever let it go.

It’s only a handful to be fair.

Two of the usual bell ends in particular who just never know when to STFU.

Imagine not being able to forget something from that long ago.

All that does it show the measure of Moyes compared to Dyche, who did nothing but slander and disrespect his predecessor and say how much of a shambles we were before he got here, even two years on (as we sat in basically the same position as we were in when he took over).

Moyes could easily echo the sentiment of all of the players, who are one by one coming out and effectively saying they hated playing under Dyche and he barely coached them, but clearly he’s a better and more respectful man than our former manager.
