I cant believe that reading up the board some seem gutted we didn't drop a place in the table today.

Really? Is this what it's come to?

In your own time fella

....does it matter, 5th, 15th...whatev's.

Depends what you're looking for. Stoke, West Brom results pretty good for us. Chelsea not so good.

That is relative to when you're asking 'what I'm looking for' if it was today then as things stand with Everton I just don't want any injuries before the FA Cup semi, if you asked me at the start of the season then I'd be at least hoping for us to be in EL race, despite not liking comp.

I just think if you are going to make a statistical argument as you did you should be telling the whole story. Like that season we shipped 57 goals with a keeper who is viewed by most our best keeper since Southall.

Yes it could be that at both Wigan and Everton the goals leaked were down to things outside RMs control most of the time.....

Having to sell his best players at Wigan certainly didn't help him.

Selling Victor Moses impacted the defence massively.

...no, not at all. This'll be why he was so surprised they got relegated eh...

 

[MikeH72]

Because Moyes first four season were all negative goal difference!

Can't believe we weren't battling for the title with Gary Naysmith and Marcus Bent in our starting XI. Moyes should have been canned after a season

Meant were you paying more attention to how teams above us or below us were doing

 

[TheHumbleEgg]

...they were never the same after that. And TITUS was a shoe-in for ENGLAND at one point, the impact on him was huge...the poor love.

Who exactly. Victor moses, Antonio Valencia and....maybe one more

That's a weak argument

Truth be told I'm not arsed. The league campaign is dead. Just let's build up some momentum going in to SF

That was solved with the greatest defender never to play for England...step forward Titus, you deserve this fella

Won't help us at Everton either if they leave down to frustration at not winning games (because we leak goals.....). As I said if there are redeeming qualities then interested to hear

Tell you what, Wigan fans are feeling the heat on here tonight
