2024/25 David Moyes

[Eggs]

….seemed the obvious choice but all appointments carry risk.

For all our sakes I wish him the very best,

I feel much better than I did with Dyche in charge.

Maybe it’s the right appointment for where we are currently. We need a lift and I do believe he has a passion for Everton.

His ambition was always to manage Manchester United so when offered the chance he was never going to pass that opportunity by.

His next 2 appointments after Man U not working out do raise question marks about him.

He comes back wiser and having done a very good job at West Ham.

I feel that the Friedkins have acted swiftly which they had to do.

I'm so underwhelmed with this appointment. I have nothing against Moyes, I'm not even bothered about how he left last time and what happened after that, he is just an average manager to me who doesnt excite me in the slightest. A short term contract would have been fine but 2.5 year contract is ridiculous. Going into this new stadium was the opportunity for optimism and changing our approach yet it feels like nothing has changed. I'm hoping I'm proved wrong but I can see us being here again next season and the season after, fighting relegation with slightly less dire football. When we should have been looking for a manager with a game plan and a philosophy which could excite us and transform our great club back to where it should be. Not buying this he is the best we could expect, he is a safe pair of hands etc etc. Just look at the likes of Brighton, Brentford, Bournemouth and Villa with their recent struggles or not even being in the league and where they are now after clever appointments. Lots were fighting relegation with us and now completely left us behind. Yet we do the same thing, rinse and repeat and expect some sort of different outcome. We look at managers, just like the players we sign - only within a certain select pool which isn't very good. We act like a small club, run so poorly with no fresh ideas and deserve what we then get in my opinion. The club bores me when it should be exciting going into our amazing new stadium. What's there to be excited about on the pitch with this appointment. Can't help feeling utterly deflated. Like I said, hope I'm massively wrong.

Needs to say he's delighted to be back and in hindsight he realises this is the biggest and best club he'll ever manage. Sorry for being a bish when I left. Break ups are hard. u Everton.

 

[Delargeinho]

It's not the dream appointment of everyone of us, there have been very questionable statements. I understand the wish of a more progressive approach.

But now let's all get behind him, because in the end we all have the same aim: To support this great club.

 

[Victus]

I am even less worried about relegation than I was and I wasn't worried at all.

 

[Eggs]

Thanks. Weird to not put that on the club article.

……on the Sky Sports banner so I presume it’s an official 2 year deal (until 2027).

For People stressing about the length of the contract remember they aren't worth the paper they're on.

It should have been a 7 year contract.

 

[john jako]

Why is he not bothering taking training today?

 

[wainy]

Wish him all the best. Just have us a solid mid table team over the next two years and he's done his job.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

I'm not excited at all about this especially the length of the contract but it's what we need at the moment.
Now we need some players desperately.

Fully agree

 

[wainy]

Why is he not bothering taking training today?

Cant be arsed

 

[Blue Willy]

We go again!

Engage!

“The first person I spoke to when I returned to Finch Farm was Bill Kenwright. I’m not sure how, but he was there”

“Bill gave me a massive hug when I got in, I was expecting some kind of spectre but he was all man. He gave me a nice Seiko watch and showed me my old office, exactly how I left it not a cobweb in sight. It was strange, like someone had been living in it. Anyway it’s great to be back and I look forward to working with Kevin who’s going to be making my tea”
