David Moyes

wish we'd broken the bank to land him 4 weeks ago......NOT

I think he's run his course at Everton tbh.

Still would like him as the next manager after GH, whenever that is.

There's a malaise surrounding Everton at the moment, but I'll reserve my piss-taking for when our own season has definitely started improving. A bad result tomorrow and our own garden won't look so rosy.

[KRS]

Always thought Moyes is just a younger version of MON.

[The Situation]

If they lose to small heath next week I think he might be fired. A lot of Everton fans are pissed off with Moyes at the moment.

Bit harsh i reckon,

Bit harsh i reckon,

Me too. As much as I'm uninterested in other clubs' managers, David Moyes strikes me as one of the better/more honourable ones. Unfortunately those characteristics appear to be somewhat redundant. That's the times we live in.

Everton would be crazy to get rid of him and I'm sure they won't.

My mate who supports Everton has wanted him out for the last couple of seasons.  A lot of it is to do with the rubbish players he has bought like Saha and how dreadful the football is that they play. Moyes was part of the reason why he gave up his season ticket he has had for over 20 years.  It's funny how people see a club from the outside to the supporters of a club.

I said the other day that I think it's all becoming a bit too much for him up there. His finances are now completely dried up, and while he has one or two very good players that would fetch a price, nothing of the calibre of a Rooney or Lescott to help fund reinforcements. That coupled with a grow propensity to just lose his head at officials/media/other players/other fans to me shows a man who has taken the club as far as it can go. Loyalty is one thing, but it needs to be reciprocated by the owners. They haven't found a buyer to push the club on, and he's now stuck with all the jobs at major clubs locked up. He's stuck there.

Everton are the sort of side that will probably go on a winning run of 7 or 8 games and everybody would be going on about what a great manager he is. I'm not convinced by him at all and don't like their style of play, plus he's got a track record of signing crocks.

[The Situation]

Everton would be crazy to get rid of him and I'm sure they won't.

Why not? Played 6, won 0, bottom of the league, no injury excuses (only team in PL not to have won) things might get even worse for them looking at their next 3 fixtures. small heath away, Liverpool at home and Spuds away... if they still haven't won after those 3 games I'll find it hard to see how he WON'T be fired.

i think he's a good manager. just didnt want him at Villa as he is very similar to MON without the personality

at least with Houllier we have the unpredictable in the sense that we dont know what sort of players he'l buy, what style of football we will get,
with Moyes it would have been more of the same

i wouldnt swap, even though Moyes was one of the  favourites on here for the job

[TimTheVillain]

I think Moyes has done a great job with limited resourses at Everton.

I'd much rather he'd been recruitd as opposed to MON in hindsight - but hindsight is a wonderful thing !

An Arteta at VP would make all the difference.

A very good manager if you consisder where he has kept his team on the resources available.it will be interesting to see what he can do if Everton ever get someone to invest better than average money in his squad.
