The return of David Moyes

[PhilM]

He's not the long term solution, but a stopgap.

Which is what Dyche was

It would be a stop-gap and not ideal, yet I think it has some positives: he knows the club; he can organise a solid defence; we will at least be more likely to score.

If the club are focusing on a target and it can't be finalised before the summer, it could be a sensible compromise.

 

[brooklyn blue]

We are a laughing stock...New owners same old story...

 

[IV(AC)]

No way please.
I can’t stand the patronising blert

 

[Drico]

He tried to sign Toni Kroos as well. Very few United managers since him have shown that sort of ambition

Bill Kenwright bid for Alan Shearer...

There's ambition and their's execution. Moyes is simply a comfortable pair of old Y-Fronts for many of our fans. And they wonder why we can no longer attract talent.

This club has shown an utter lack of imagination today. We're a laughing stock. So many of our fans are actually afraid of modern life. Every Everton manager seems to have to have been here before. An incestuous gene pool.

Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is...you know the rest.

 

[GT77]

I want us to start next season in the Premier League, at the moment that's the extent of it.

Moyes doesn't offer much ambition but the fear of appointing someone who's never managed in this league who'll come in with great technical plans only to see Doucoure trap the ball into Row C and see us go down scares me far more.

 

[DanB90]

Didn't have a massively better squad when he joined though it was a mess, it was him who built it from the bottom half up to a team who regularly finished in the top half.

It was Moyes who signed Bowen, Kudus, Paqueta ect.

Did West Ham not have a dof?
Genuine question btw.

He'll be here until 2030. They'll be calling for an extension by April. Mark my words. This is as good as it gets once he is back in situ regaling us all with his tales of "good times."

Bill Kenwright is smiling down tonight.

 

[Toffeepot]

I'm depressed at how predictable we are if it's moyes. New owners from texas and they immediately become predictable Everton

 

[Rita_Poon]

Wonder why West Ham legged him? Twice?

The same west ham that've wet their knickers just and ousted another manager and now got Potter in? A carousel of idiocy that place.

 

[AS Roma_fan]

Given the risk of relegation, they opted for someone who knows the club and the league like no other. A Ranieri-like appointment.

 

[Librarian]

If he keeps us up, he'll be kept on with some waffle about stability.

You've got to have some hope in football. We've been starved of it for years - dour Davey an his self serving down play expectation at every turn for his own benefit doesn't give us that hope.

I could tolerate Dyche, appreciating the wider context and hoped we had a few more months to tolerate. Moyes appointed for me just prolongs misery.

How this goes, someone underwhelming is the front runner, and everyone is unimpressed, then we are rumoured to be in talks with someone truly terrifying and everyone’s hair is on fire, next up pops someone way out of our league, this is the giddy spell before we inevitably settle on the 1st guy and everyone agrees to give it a begrudging chance

It’s the Everton way

 

[blue to the bone]

please no

Make peace matty. It's done

 

[Drico]

I'm depressed at how predictable we are if it's moyes. New owners from texas and they immediately become predictable Everton

Yeah, this is it for me. The moment the blinkers - such as they were - completely fell off.

"Good times" - are back.

 

[Blue Alert]

No. This is how you never improve and end up where we are now. This mindset right here. The same exact crap was said about Dyche. If he had been slightly better at balancing both sides of the ball- even slightly we would not be in this mess. We have dropped way too many easy points because of this mindset

No to your no. You can’t expect to just stride forward. Things don’t turn around on a sixpence. A young progressive coach will not work well with our lousy squad. We need someone to keep us up, not prematurely indulge the fans’ hopes for the future. Of course the same stuff was said about Dyche - because we were so badly run. Had been for manager after manager. Until the club is well run - and even with TFG that will take time - we have to stick with whatever keeps up.

The guy to bring us back to mid-table, and then maybe success, is not the next guy. Possibly not even the one after that.

 

[Toffeelover]

Not Moyes please.
