Pellers would have win that game today
You really think so, I beg to differ on that. He would have still probably played that clown Sanchez, and our players would have been strolling around with no direction. Bournemouth had 65% possession today. Given Pellegrini's tactics and mismanagement I think it could have been us on the end of a 4-0 drubbing.

Do you think Moyes would have been immune from blame by fans if we had lost 0-4? No fuc*ing way. As such, I think he deserves some credit for the win.

Well done Mr Moyes.

Well done Mr Moyes.
It does make me laugh how depending on a posters agenda whether they are willing to give Moyes any credit today.

We beat a poor Bournemouth team 4-0, was it a managerial masterclass? No, we beat a tram ravaged by injuries who are low on confidence.

Does Moyes deserve some credit? Without doubt yes. Our intensity was far better, to pretend that will be solely due to Pelligrini being sacked is rather strange logic. Clearly Moyes has got them motivated over the last couple of days. Finally Moyes tweaked the system to play 4-4-1-1 and it worked, so give him the credit he deserves.

The key will be making sure the teams we are capable of beating. Getting the results we should get so the others are free hits.

If we maintain the levels shown today we will win most of those and probably a few where we are underdogs.

And I think having a hungry, studious coach in charge is going to make a big, big difference. There is a lot of potential in this squad.

He’s walked in the door and we’ve had our biggest home win in the Premier League since 2005.

Can’t really complain.

Classy guy.

Made a few tweaks here and there, instilled a bit of belief, showed a bit of passion. Imagine what he can do after he has had them for a week!

Whatever one thinks of him, one game is obviously not enough to judge his second spell here, pressing has literally been his game since Everton.
A couple of videos of him talking pressing

From the Beeb:

"West Ham earned their biggest Premier League win since November 2007, when they beat Derby 5-0 at Pride Park. It's the Hammers' biggest home win in the competition since September 2005 (4-0 v Aston Villa)."

And...

"West Ham were 3-0 ahead after just 35 minutes in this match, the earliest they've established such a lead in a Premier League game since May 2007 against Bolton (29 minutes)."

Decent start to his 2nd stint at the club. Let's see how things pan out as we're stuck with GSB whether we like it or not. We've played plenty of 'poor' Premier League sides in that 13/15 year spell under more attacking manager's and not bettered today's result, so credit where credits due...well done DM.

Looking forward to the gillingham game. Think he’ll put out a reasonably strong side to keep momentum going.

Having a top class coach like Alan Irvine and a good motivator like Pearcie will help too. While the manager is important the team he assembled around him is just as important.

What I really hope is that he is able to put the structures in place we need to ensure we are setup for long term success - improved youth development, expand the sports science and analytics departments, a training facility worthy of a club our stature. Basically the things that ensure he leaves a legacy that we will be able to profit from and remember him for when he leaves the club.

Obviously this rests on him delivering on the field in the short term, and making is more successful and professional in our preparations

The thing I like is he achieved this against the much-feted Eddie Howe, who many were claiming is a superior coach.
