The return of David Moyes

[Brett Angell Delight]

wow. i’m not happy with moyes

but over dyche?

it’s a no brainer

This is a lot of people’s point, though, Matty.

Moyes over Dyche any day, of course, but there’s thousands of competent football managers in the world. After months and months of supposed planning, TFG couldn’t find ONE appointment more suitable/exciting/inspiring than a fella in his 60s that first managed us 20-odd years ago??

It stinks of desperation and a lack of ambition.

Might well turn out boss but I think there’ll be a lot, me being one, who took the takeover and Dyche’s sacking to be signs of a new era, and are just proper deflated by this same, old, safety first approach.

Dont you remember when Dyche chased Klopp down the tunnel at Anfield?

They've wanted his head on a plate since then. Joyce is delighted to deliver it.

Wake up FFS.

Klopp chased Dyche. Dyche wet the bed and walked away.

I hear you
I don't want us to be media darlings though, just want them to not shove managers down our throats and tell us were lucky to have them.
The relegation risks began really with Benitez in recent times and they were telling us he was the right man until he was hounded out. Most of them anyway

Tbh I'd try and ignore them. The standard of pundits these days is abysmal. Just go with how you feel. I'm not made up it's moyes, but it's not a horrible appointment like that fat Spanish waster. He'll do a decent job here and then we can move onwards and upwards. Imo.

Ill just leave this here

yearh i said this earlier

 

[ToffeeTim]

na i think he split - some be like “meh”

some “
wanted better “

“some just no”

Nothing wrong with wanting better. I'd much rather we get someone better than Moyes. But I'm not sure if we can get someone better right now and I also think there are much worse managers out there too.

Strangely O'Keefe Dominic king and Myers all going with moyes as a great appointment

mcnulty and his merry band of men

Behave you quilt.

They wanted him to stay in the job, not get sacked. All the established media bellwhiffs were telling us dyche was the best man for the job, because he wasn’t.

You need to stop buying what they are selling mate - they don’t want us becoming relevant under the new owners ffs, and dyche would have given them even more with relegation.

Klopp chased dyche
He won against a flailing Liverpool as Klopp was winding down his tenure. It was great but so what? He lost against most other teams

Not my remit.

Absolute cop out

Are there thousands of better managers than Dyche available right now? Because that’s the bigger question. We need someone right now.

Are there though? It’s only a handful who can mix it in the Premier League.

 

[blue to the bone]

Would be a bit of an inauspicious start, to employ a new manager for less time than you want him to be in charge for, triggering a year’s payoff for him and his staff. May as well have kept the last fella, he was boss at going that.

He didn't get an extra years pay off did he . He said himself that was utter nonsense.

 

[Papa Shango]

He found the likes of Cahill,Lescott......Tommy G etc. Give him 6 months to keep us up.Move him to DOF............Him and his team decide who the new manager is. Oh and Bring back Steve Tashjian from the States who was the best fitness coach we ever had.

Gravesen was a Walter Smith signing.

I agree, it could be far far worse than Moyes. He plays better football than Dyche and I'd be very confident we'd move away from the relegation zone. Just seems unimaginative but maybe that's for another time
