It's a myth that Everton didn't play attractive football under Moyes. They most certainly did.

 

Oh they certainly did latterly, no disputing that. But as I said it took them a long time to get to that stage and his Myoo days were not good. Better squad should equate to better football, or is that too simplistic?

 

It took him 1 year to get them to 7th and 3 years to finish 4th.

 

You've done it again, twisted the meaning. I was talking about the attractiveness of the football. 7th was ground out, much like our 5th.

 

I'll repeat, I said I was NERVOUS. Not 'I don't want that twat near our club'. He's definitely a massive improvement.

Unfortunately it's also a myth that he had no money to spend there. They also kept hold of the core of their best team for ages.

 

That said, I'd still love to have him replace Pardew. Clear upgrade.

You said it took him '6 years to get Everton going' and that you weren't convinced he'd 'do any better'.

It'd be like upgrading a Nokia 3210 for an iPhone 5. I'm pretty sure Everton made a transfer profit with him there, too.

 

Anyway, waste of time discussing it. I think he's out of our league.

Yep can't see us paying the wages. More likely to be some championship manager given a lucky break and who will fail as well.

I hate Lennon at Celtic, but since listening at the world cup and some of the stuff he said on 5live last night on Pardew he made some interesting points, also absolutely slated the Cabaye excuse.

I'd like Moyes, but my preference for a  while have been for a foreign manager to come in.

 

Anyway, came across this garbage from a journalist (Rob Stewart):

@mattholland8 Agreed. Hope Ashley sticks with him + Pardew sticks at it to prove doubters wrong cos there's a fine coach + manager in there

Yeah that Rob Stewart guy wrote an article on FourFourTwo yesterday saying we shouldn't sack him. His defense was basically that Pardew has no say over the players coming in to the club and that this isn't "his team". Pretty much blames Ashley and Graham Carr for our predicament.

Such a bizarre argument. By that logic he can literally never be held accountable for results. If he's unable to work to a reasonable standard under a system that isn't going away, that's more reason to get rid rather than keep.

 

People in England really struggle with the idea of a Director of Football system despite it being the norm, even at some English clubs. Personally I prefer the manager to have a lot more say but not if he's Alan Pardew.

Nailed it. At no club does the manager have 100% control anyway- they all work to a budget.

It's a bloody good thing he doesn't control transfers too!

 

Sorry I'd much rather have Graham, "I brought Cabaye, Ben Arfa and all those players Pardew relied on to win matches" to the club rather than Alan, "Mullins is superb and Ameobi is as good as Tevez" Pardew.  Journalists completely useless.

Exactly - it works both ways. Not a chance that Pardew would have brought Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Cisse et al to the club if he had complete control over transfers.

:thup:

 

Thought the exact same thing when I read it. It's like, ok, when does it become acceptable to start criticizing him then? How many more bad results, how much worse does it have to get before we can say maybe he just isn't good enough? As you say, it absolves him of any blame and essentially gives him the best job in the world because he can never be held accountable.
