Big fan of the Moyesiah and will always look back on his time as EFC boss fondly but.....
Flirted with relegation sometimes and there was plenty of calls for him to be got rid of during his time at Everton. Plenty of West Ham fans didn't rate his football and would be hard pressed to describe it as anything approaching attacking. They were happy when results were going well but were also more than happy to see him leave....twice.
The same man who came into Sunderland and talked about the likelihood of relegation from the start of the season due to lack funds for investment.
I completely understand the desire to get shut of Dyche but pretending Moyes and his 'knife to a gunfight' mentality is anything approaching a rejection of Dyche-esque footballing values is wide of the mark.
Given time he can build a decent side and his peak Everton were at times a very good side to watch but in the short term, and with what this squad currently has to offer, he'd definitely be a safety first nick a goal type of pragmatist.
Plus he's already gone public about considering himself to be above a relegation scrap.
