Neil Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Is there anything more uninspiring than Moyes/Pulis to Nufc? Yeah, i know the idea of Pardew staying is worse. But fuck me, both cunts i mentioned is two negative dinosaurs and the personification of everything that is wrong with English football. I know you pretty much want anyone except Pardew, but come on. That statement in relation to Moyes couldn't be more wrong. He has a naturally cautious outlook, that's true. What you've glossed over (or probably haven't even considered) is the fact he developed our football year on year and got us playing consistently good stuff, even if it wasn't always thrilling. That statement in bold, man. Absolute corker. To describe him as an infinite improvement on Pardew isn't doing the situation justice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But fuck me, both cunts i mentioned is two negative dinosaurs and the personification of everything that is wrong with English football. I know you pretty much want anyone except Pardew, but come on. Absolutely incredible. Judging Moyes on one season makes you no better than the arseholes who bring up Pardew finishing 5th. Not many people are judging Moyes on one season, he was at Everton a long time. They played pretty dogged football for most of that time, although to be fair, they looked good last season. His failure at Man U though has shown his limitations. Football has moved on, and so have Everton. That's what we need to do as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Moyes is lightyears ahead of Pardew imo. Don't think he would ever take the job but I'd be delighted if he did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Everton team was not exactly easy on the eye. A better Pardew, but the same negative outlook on football. That anyone looks at Moyes and think its the way forward is mental if you ask me.

Its bold but i hate the likes of him. sorry like, but its my opinion. I do not think Moyes will ever top what he did at Everton, even with a new club with more funds. PL has moved on, him, Alladyce, Pulis etc are the remains of a different time. IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His failure at Man U though has shown his limitations. Football has moved on, and so have Everton. That's what we need to do as well. We played pretty dogged football at the start of his tenure because of the incredible amount of shite we had on our books. He took a team which regularly included Big Dunc, Marcus Bent, Carsley, Kilbane, Pistone, Weir and Stubbs (to name just a few) to 4th. Did we play pretty football? Occasionally, not regularly. And it was exactly the right thing to do given we didn't have a pot to piss in and were stuck with generally poor players. He then recognised that if we were to progress - or even maintain our standards in the face of several teams with infinitely superior spending power - we need to buy better footballers but smartly, with Pienaar and Arteta being the 2 prime examples. This pattern continued as the years went by, albeit we were again limited due to a distinct lack of funds. It's not just last season we started playing better, we've been improving aesthetically for the past 6 or 7 years. His problem, as was the case throughout his time here, was his mentality. His actual acquisitions improved in terms of footballing quality and we more regularly played better football, but in the crunch moments he was let down by a lack of bottle and having to settle for 1 point when we should have got 3. This is what Martinez has changed. I think Moyes would be a good appointment for you, if that does transpire. He's obviously a million times better than Pardew and I'm pretty confident he'd get you challenging for the European positions. While I wouldn't expect people to be lining the streets in celebration upon his hypothetical appointment, the question you have to ask yourself is who better would you realistically get in this summer? Your assertion that football has moved on is a bit OTT but I can see what you're getting at; but that's all well and good in an idealist world. I think Moyes would represent a very good move, if he were interested. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people appear to be expecting them to be some cavalier you score 4 we score 5 team after an absolutely awful summer of recruitment and a squad of players who are mostly past it/past caring or very average.

I think that's a very good and loyal defence of Moyes, but I think we don't need to aim to become last season's Everton, we have been fighting on the same turf for the last 10 years. We need to show some balls and go for a Martinez, like Kenwright did to step up to the level we should be at. You have more or less said the same thing from an Everton supporter's POV really.

Andymc1 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Truth is that Moyes would probably be a success here.
