Dejection level thread

This is the dry run to prepare us for the Summer transfer failures when we go into the end of August having still bought no one.
Or, we go really BIG during the Summer transfer window and sign up several 'galacticos' in preparation for our new beginnings at BMD
Or...oh, sod it! I'm off to bed!

Our players have heart and determination, and under Moyes' stewardship they are at least well organised.
Goodison will be rocking in our next two home games, as it was against Leicester. I can see us avoiding defeat in both of those games, maybe even sneaking a win.

It's time to give the DOF a little bit of benefit of the doubt. We've not had a truly horrendous, setting money on fire signing since he took over. If all he did in January was get Alcaraz done I trust that there wasn't much else to do.

I've no reason to be dejected.
My hope at the start of the season was to be comfortable going into enjoying the last game at Goodison and have nothing riding on it.
Ask me again when the summer transfer window shuts and if we again don't have a penny to spend, then I'll be dejected.
If we win our next league game, we are 13th above Spurs & Man Utd. We will climb above West Ham who have spent hundreds of millions.
Whilst I'm not a huge fan of the current manager, it does appear he's given the squad a new lease of life and there's huge reasons to feel positive, and very few panic buys to cause me stress.

We need to reopen this thread when Beto gets mullered by Van Disney next Wednesday and we're drip fed DCL's 'complicated injury' updates over the next couple of months. Along with Moyes's snippets of Michael Keane trying his very best in the unfamiliar striker roll !!!

Great post earlier in the thread about Moyes being the best signing of the window. Three out of four and even Beto's scoring.
I wasn't overjoyed by Moyes2.0 but so far so good. Only our striker situation bothers me as Beto seems quite capable of injuring himself well before getting anyway near a football pitch.
But in fairness to Moyes first spell he was always happy for goals to be a shared responsibility. I'm not surprised to see us using corners and Tarks, Jarrod etc pressing up. Garner (who whipped in a couple of beauties vs Leicester) can add from deadballs, Doucs, Ndiaye have goals in them obviously. It's our wide players who disappoint me most, Lindstrom and Harrison are Championship players and I think Myko was lucky to see us not press harder for Chilwell whom I thought was ideal for us. In lieu of that I was sort of keen to see if a cheeky little end of season deal for Willian could be done whilst Dwight recovers. Not to be.
In our narrow and gritty Moyes midfield we must trust.

Alcaraz done. A transfer window 'knife' to Davey's relegation gun fight.

Now that the dust has settled, getting the injured players back is the number one priority.
It will be interesting to see whether the media up their game and ask for proper injury updates in press conferences going forward.
Crucial to get DCL, Broja, Chermiti and McNeil back playing so I’d like to see more clarity from the club - at present the injury updates are disconcertingly vague.

I'd settle for that as the gun fight is somewhere in the Midlands and we're miles up the M6, minding our own business.
