Relegation

[Marius57]

Do you reckon? I thought the consensus was that Richarlison was poor last season.

Think he tailed off (like the rest of the team) in the second half of the season. But when we were ticking in that first half, him and James and Digne looked great together.

Gordon not that far away in my opinion, u set Frank I can see him become world class. He’s got the pace and talent just needs more minutes and learn the game

I’ve not read the entire conversation, but… did you just say Anthony Gordon is “not that far away” from Wayne Rooney’s level?!

Guardiola, the Teutonic tit and Lampard are all of the opinion he's a top player even now.

If he was in a Man City team he'd be getting back page headlines.

I'll go with Tommy G. He'd terrify our team of pansies in to action. Somebody in the middle of the park who would get a reaction from this bunch of cowards.

Is this serious?Gravesen was a good ball player but where he gets this reputation of being a hard tackler from ill never know, he was the worst tackler i can ever remember, he wouldnt terrify anybody either because his teammates used to just be bemused by him.

I can see the headlines now.

"Why do you keep picking him Pep".

Instead he’s in our team and pundits are already trying to ruin him by labelling him a diver!

Stuff like that sticks too, unfair on the lad. That’ll be the stuff we get from refs now.

Was Scott Gemmill under Moyes or Walter?

Memory isn't what it was...

Both.

I'm assuming you are just using him as a basepoint to help your memory remember who else was playing at that time right?

He isn't the player you would pick? Right? Unless you are Scott himself?

Burnley and Leeds both getting beat would be a boss start to the weekend. Probably won't happen but we are due a bit of luck so fingers crossed.

Not so sure. Surely City will win. Watford can play reasonably sometimes so could get something. Burnley had a decent run but they are still poor

I didn’t mention tackling but he was far from the worst at it to wear the famous blue shirt. If you think that you clearly haven’t been to Goodison very often. Our current midfield is full of players who can’t tackle. Tommy worse than Gomez, don’t make me laugh. Tommy was a competitor and with Carsley formed a really good partnership. Better than anything we’ve seen in the last few seasons. Might not be up there with the greats pre Premiership but the question was about players from the Moyes era.

 

[Jokerdan]

We've pushed out luck for too long. Instead of progressing we've simply digressed. Grabbed at what we thought was the golden chalice in Moshiri only to find that he was more clueless about football than Mr Clueless. He should have put his money in along with our erstwhile former oligarch and employed proper football and business people instead of involving himself in recruitment. Sorry to say but BK really did pick the wrong horse but, of course, we '...have had good times!' so thanks for them.

But just remind me, again, what they were...there were that many!

Watford will consign us. Guaranteed, 100%. They will be down by then and will want to take us with. I'll be well pee'd off if we then go on to win our remaining game(s)

Look at our squad look really hard. No DM, one fit full back who can get up and down, no genuine DM beyond Delph, not much creativity, and a reliance on one striker to stay fit and he hasn't been all season. We have some decent wide forwards and a couple of other good players but that's it. When you factor in the injuries and Benitez's toxic influence it's not actually surprising where we are...

Not a Moyes player, but we need another super Kevin Campbell around now
