If Moyes takes us down have we still avoided a bullet?

It's a fair question and a possibility.
The point being TFG are not 777 nor Textor and his so called interest.

If we go down regardless, of owner it'll be a disaster.

With this squad, most managers will struggle but let's not focus on Moyes. He is not a problem, nor are TFG.
 
So a Ponzi scheme that have just gone bust and a dodgy John Textor lead Eagle group are preferable to company that turns over 13 billion year?

Even if we did go down its been due to gross mismanagement over the past 20 years and not due to a 7 months TFG reign, regardless of what some melon head on here says.

A relegation battle was always on the cards this season,and relegation under those 2 entities would be certain death.

Even if the worst was to happen TFG have ultimately got the clout to deal if it.

So no it's not a fair question and all your doing is throwing out mad shouts because your head is choca due to the precarious position we find ourselves in.
If we go down a lot of it comes down to who the new owners chose to replace Dyche.

If we get relegated they chose poorly
 

Signings are desperately required. At least one winger with some pace and a creative midfielder to actually pull us up the pitch.
You know Jake, ask me what we need and I cant tell you, ask me what we dont need and its much easier.

GK, CB, we dont need.

Thats it for me, thats the reality, sure our CMs are "good" and an acceptable level, but tell me we dont need a proper ball player in there?

And thats it for me, look at the squad, tell me who you dont think we can improve on.

Its very bad.

And im judging DCL on the version we have now, can he get his mojo back, dunno, seems unlikely he will at Everton.

I wouldn't even call the CMs good. They're cloggers who service at this end of the league but they're a massive factor in our inability to progress up the pitch.

Ndiaye in his day is the only other one I'd add to the CBs and GK who can keep their position.

Yeah the boy Ndiaye is the only 1 and McNeil when hes on it.

Just have to hope Moyes can pluck us a new Arteta, Cahill, Baines, Bowen from somewhere.

Can't agree there mate, in the event of blame for a relegation, TFG would have some but very limited responsibility in my opinion. Our problems have been years in the making and the lions share of the blame for that lies elsewhere imho.

You can make an argument for how well or otherwise TFG can put out the fire between December and May, but the same fire has been raging unchecked years before they got here, and was getting worse.
 
I think our PL survival rests on what TFG, Moyes and KT can do in the next 3 weeks.

If they do nothing, we die.
At the moment it looks like they're waving the white flag. That could change very quickly, but home games against Villa and Spurs are winnable and we've completely forfeited them by not adding to the squad. That's just not good enough from these owners.

Ndiaye's ability to carry the ball is the reason he's wasted out on the wing in our system, given the other midfielders we have to work with. Now that Garner's coming back, I'd like to see a midfield of Garner, Gana, and Ndiaye, because it seems to me like their strengths all complement each other rather well, and they could be given distinct roles: Gana to win the ball back, Garner to make the connecting passes (not that he's DeBruyne or anything, but he's one of our few players that at least seems capable of consistently playing 10-20 yard passes to teammates with some accuracy), and Ndiaye as CAM ahead of the other two to carry the ball when necessary into the attacking third and connect with the forward. Think something like that would make everyone appear better than the way they've been shoehorned in under Dyche, especially.
