Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
The fact that I had to ask what the connection was makes it tenuous. Now had he said up there with Graham or Waddell …. Believe it or not, Tim Howard actually believes Moyes is a better manager than Ferguson. "(Best manager?) David Moyes. I spent nearly a decade with him. He bought me to the f...

You should have told Sir Alex and Alan Irvine. I'm sure they would take your opinion on board.

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
To be fair, its pretty obvious how much Alan Irvine loathes David Moyes: "I couldn’t get out to Prague so I watched it from home and I was kicking every ball. I was desperate for the team and David to do well. I’m thrilled. “I’ve had a whole load of messages from loads of people asking me to pa...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
I don’t think he’s trying to be either critical or complimentary - he’s just stating what we could all see with our own eyes. He wasn’t especially comfortable playing David Moyes style of football. Not a great revelation is it? But that's not what the actual quotation was about though. It sounded l...

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/apr/06/thilo-kehrer-history-west-ham-club-monaco-ligue-1-psg Kehrer summing up things up quite succinctly. Weird signing.

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
It’ll be interesting to see where he ends up. If I was him I’d take a break for a while. He was sounded out about replacing Rodger, but Celtic seem in better form now. Everton seems an option, though I’d be surprised if he went there given the state they are in. Some suggest the fans there wouldn’t ...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
Some people are still in denial. Forget David Moyes. Sullivan is slowly but surely is leaving as well . I was told by someone who was the 1st one to break the kretinsky news . Despite whetstones denial . That kretinsky has a deal in place for the stadium. And he brokered it . As the LLDC will not e...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
In terms of replacements.... Andoni Iraola was my choice last season. Glasner was the one I liked most this season. Both gone elsewhere now. Looking elsewhere... what's the story with Eric Roy at Brest? He has spent the majority of his career so far as a technical director, including a spell at Wat...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
Tim will have about as much power as the more highly rated Marcel Brands had at Everton under a similarly dictatorial owner - sod all.
I think Moyes has already made up his mind to walk in the summer, so its more a case of who will the club get in to replace him?

Re: Postecoglou: are the cracks beginning to show? [non WHU]
You can get away with 'gung ho' in Scotland with Celtic and inferior opposition (Rangers apart). Not so clever in the Premier league. Admirable approach but quite frankly naive at times (that Chelsea game a prime example). That's the thing. Also, Celtic's squad was relatively deep so taking such a ...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
Go backwards to go forwards I suspect. Steidten (based on Leverkusen) is about a different system. Young, cheap, undervalued players sometimes discarded by others. Shifting to that takes time and patience and it doesn't include 90% of our squad. I don't really follow German stuff, was it working wh...

Re: ✍️ Welcome Lucas Paquetá - Our Brazilian Magnifico
I wonder if his lack of discipline and recent displays of petulance will deter Pep from actually going for him. He won't get the same leeway at City that he does here. He's out of form though, that's for sure and is making mistakes. Unfortunate timing, but too early to say he isn't playing for the ...

Re: ✍️ Welcome Lucas Paquetá - Our Brazilian Magnifico
I’d like to see him get back to playing at his pre injury level. He’s had moments since coming back, but he’s well off his levels from 2023. I also think he’s looked a little jaded. He needs to pull his head out and finish the season strong, especially if he wants to leave. He’s not currently entic...

Maybe not the best attitude if it means missing out on players like McGinn, Tierney, Hickey and Van Dijk.Metal Hammer wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2024 10:13 pm With all due respect, most of us don't care about Scotland and their rubbish league!

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
What amazes me is the idea that Moyes isn't aware of statistics. He was one of the trailblazers in that regard along with Big Sam. And we know he has not fallen behind either, as he is on committees at UEFA. The club that is not allowed to be named were ahead of the game in that respect at Moyes' re...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
People moan about missing out on Frimpong yet any time a player is mentioned from the Scottish leagues there are howls of derision! People moan about being linked to experienced players, untried players, etc, etc. Maybe if Tim likes a player from north of the border everyone will suddenly get behind...
