Eddie Howe. No, I’d rather stick with Moyes please.

Considering he’s been paid massive wages, a total lack of respect for his team mates and the club, if we do keep him, let him prove his point off the bench, why would we drop George who put the club first

If he’s got a point to prove, which he should after what’s happened, then hopefully we’ll get a bit more from him.Think we’ll see him come off the bench at some point if George is fit to start .

Moyes going nowhere, love to see Eddie Howe here . The sale of the club is going to make giving moyes a new contract easier for TFG.Moyes is probably going to now be in a better bargaining position, as Horne says, it’s hard to appoint a new manager when they don’t know who will buy the club, so moyes knows the clubs stuck with him. That’s unless a buyer was found who communicated to TFG to appoint the manager they want while the sale was ongoing, therfore not having to pay out to sack moyes when they took over .

Erudite points made….well reasoned. UTFT

From the start? Nobody. I’d have Grealish on in place of KDH at some point, as opposed to George.

John Collins? I didnt realise he did.

Who you thinking of dropping Danny?

With our huge, multi million pound squad, you think we would be top.

Absolutely Dave .Think Garner has improved last couple of games also. If we have a couple off the boil as important as them 2, it’s bound to show. Think KDH on form wins you games, makes our forward play alot better.Garners different, probably helps you not lose games, so if they are both on song can only be a plus.

He doesn`t do horses for courses.He prefers the ones who can get the trip over 4 miles plus.Plodders instead of thorough breds

Coventry at home would be the ideal opportunity to try Grealish in a central role. Other than that, why make any changes? We had a lot of possession on Monday, so, in terms of how we set up, it shouldn’t be too different on Friday.

Mr Editor.He is posting nasty things about me,take them down please sir.Khasi

Dewesbury Hall is the level of player we should be looking to sign around the pitch if we had ambitious owners.If we had full backs and strikers of his ilk, performances and wins would elevate us in a congested league.

TFG dont care about the club. We can all speculate why, but the only fact that matters is that they want out making a tidy sum in the process.Moyes is ideal for them.They know he will keep it afloat in the prem league without much outlay anywhere.So who would come ?Well Moyes has to go first and that ain’t happening any time soon. So this is a non subject really.

Hear hear! PLUS I think TFG owes it to supporters to actually say something to us!

Whoever owns Everton or whoever becomes manager if Moyes is ousted has one very clear obstacle. They won’t be able to spend. Regs restrict spending inline with income and it will be some years before Everton can command the ability to spend like Utd,city, Liverpool and arsenal etc. Moyes has at least proved he can deal with a tough budget and a lack of squad numbers. Any manager coming in will have to deal with those same issues. My guess would be,, most will fail dismally. How many managers will it take to find another Moyes ? As for TFG giving Moyes another contract it’s probably the most important step they could take right now. It will give players and Moyes confidence. It will also let Moyes know that at the end of the day he will have been rewarded whether it results in a compensation payoff by new owners or a sense of belonging, either way it’s a positive step. COYB

He has a few options. Rohl or obrien at right back, hackney or armstrong centre mid, rohl or dibling right wing. Id be happy with those choices.Hopefully everyone is fit. Branthwaite went off with cramp apparently, and george was holding his leg.Coventry I think will prefer a more open, chaotic game.

I think he lack confidence and out of his depth. Shame as he has not been able to replicate his Spurs best playing days but it looks like Moyes will use him perhaps in the hope he can capture his form. Not a good idea when you have better players and playing in the Premier.

Would hate to see TFG give Moyes another season just to show stability for any potential incoming owners. Moyes has had his time at Everton. He walked away for greener pastures and despite him doing okay since returning I find him predictable and far too stubborn, far to set in his dreary way of playing football. I would love to see Eddie Howe take over

Haha, there is more to defending than just tackling Darren. As a student of the game, perhaps you bunked off that lesson.

Patric, not sure what game you were watching but on Monday O’Brien didn’t give Harvey Barnes a look in, yet when Rohl played full back on Thursday Barnes was finding loads of time and space to run at Rohl and had a few shots and crosses yet had none on Monday when O’Brien played full back. I dont think there will be many changes only those forced by injuries. I would like to see Hackney play a bigger part as he is always looking to get forward and make runs into the box which Armstrong and Garner seem reluctant to do. With the International break coming after this game then there is no need to rest any players this early in the season.

Darren — 55 minutes ago Yes Darren I’m a Blue like you and if Grealish is allowed to play for us again I hope he will do what you say in so many words — Ram the opinions of fans like me right back down my throat. Seeing is believing!

I’m at the Coventry game. Surely Grealish shouldn’t be starting. Breaking up a winning team is a head fuck. Is he even match fit after another alleged bender? But we know Moyes has history. Keep the team as it is. Even O’Brien at RB, ffs! Who’d have thought. Armstong has to take the chances he gets in front of goal, too. The miss on Monday was pretty bad like, and not the first glaring miss of his. Though, I want to see more of Hackney. He looks class. COYB.

Dewsbury-Hall is looking back to his best in the last 2 games after a patchy club.I would like him in the No.8 role playing box to box with Hackney ahead of hom, and Garner or Armstrong sitting in. As for Jack Grealish, he is the most talented player in the squad. Regardless of any off-the-field issues (and none of us know what they are or why he missed training), we need to re-integrate him as soon as he is fit.He will be on the bench, but writing him off is not premature.

Dale, I am loving my -2 as much as I am enjoying The Amb’s deep love for the sainted Moysey. Who knew Davie was such a charismatic, managerial genius?I realise now that I fundamentally misread our 13th finish last season. It was in fact a triumph.

David if KDH is our key player that might explain why we have only won three games in the last 15 league games because he has had as many poor or indifferent games in that period and for me the same ratio throughout last season —- Garner was player of the season last year and his poor games this season were due to just getting his stride back after an operation, the last two games like KDH’s were very good, maybe DH has missed the assistance of his midfield partner

Dont disagree with any of that Dave, but a point to prove is a point to prove, Age doesnt really come into it. I think we would all be happy to think Gealish comes back feeling like he has a point to prove

Jack has a big couple of weeks coming up. Dealing with the rejection of not being in the squad friday, and then the void that is the international break.I hope he comes through.

Think moyes will be reluctant to change that back 4 from Monday after they were so solid. I’d expect the same 11.

Exactly.

Before the season started I said KDH was our key player. Without him doing what he does, between the lines, bursting foward, carrying the ball, knitting it all together, the likes of grealish, George, Dibbling & Barry won’t be as effective. 2 games won on the bounce without grealish, 1 without jarred . I don’t think we would have won them with grealish & jarred but no KDH.Would he be a good choice to take over captain when tarks finishes ?

Tony i’m saying no one will take his place he’s that good simple .Man city only have Harland no one mentions that .Im with Barry all the way he knows he’s good and he is doing everything he ca to be top class .Example .He has his own Physio . Dietician .Physical instructor and so on.He is paying for all this out of his own pocket .Ive worked with top sportsman for a long time and thats what these guys and women do to get to the top .

I think Johnson should be put into the reserves he dosent contribute any thing he is lasey if your not going to be in danger of losing then bring on Graham he’s been on the pench the last 5 games it’s time to give him minutes

Im not saying to go alone with him im saying no one will take his place he’s that good so maymbe a loan striker as cover .We’ve had enough of these makeshift Right Backs spend a big amount and do the job correctly.When we where the best team in Europe in the 80s we had Gary stevens . Kevin ratcliffe .Derek mountfield .Pat van den hawue.All about 24 playing in there correct positions plus BIG NEV.Now we probaly end up with Jake O’Brien .Jarred Branthwaite.Vitaly Myolenko.JORDAN PICKFORD.All is missing is a top Right Back.

My overall experience of David Moyes, is that he prefers to mostly use the same players for most games. This means that horses for courses – usually ends up being, flogging dead horses…. It’s never too late to learn, but I don’t think David, ever really has that thought. I could be wrong, I hope I’m wrong, even if I don’t like with the same hope as I once did

Tarkowski is absolutely right that KDH should get a call up, of the list competing for the same spot Eze rarely starts for Arsenal same can be said of Foden. Tutchel openly criticized Palmer for dropping out of the last squad and Gibbs White isn’t setting the World alight for a struggling Forest.So yes Bellingham and Rogers are ahead of KDH but why wouldn’t he get a call up.

Michael, how anybody couldnt have been pleased with our possession in this game which we dominated I dont know. You talk about last ditch tackles thats what makes good sides I take it you never watched how many last ditch tackles Arsenal made the other day against Liverpool. I am sure if we had a decent striker we could possibly be a few points better off than we are. We sit 7th at the moment, we may possibly have 4 players called into the England squad on Friday cant remember the last time that happened and you are still concentrating on the negatives. Nobody is for one minute suggesting this team can make a Champions league spot, but considering for the last decade we have spent more time worrying about relegation than Europe surely even you can see the improvement over the last few weeks. Also there are a lot of young players in this squad who will only get better, but its if we can keep hold of them that I worry about. So cheer up and look at the positives for a change.

What’s wrong with shore up ?

Fully deserves a England call up. But I can’t see it.

‘Sure’ things up? are you shore?

Any away win is a great win and we played very well, but how well you play has a lot to do with the opposition, we can’t pass it about so well against better teams. The stand out players for me were Dewbury-Hall, Rohl, George, Tarks and Myko.Branthwaite had his usual steady game, Pickford did what he had to, there were no poor performances from any of the team.On paper we should get a win on Friday night against Coventry but we usually make heavy weather of these type of games, then we have a difficult game at Brentford. I do think we will beat Coventry but my predictions lately have been rubbish. John Collins will tell us how the game will go he usually gets it right.

“ A bit of magic now and again” You’re very easily pleased Michael, we’ve been waiting a long time I think we deserve more magic than now and again and against better teams than that Newcastle one!

I didn’t know this game was being played— What a terrific goal from Finney from a great pass, like this kid could be the right back we’ve been longing for although he might have to fight Francis Boggan for that spot ——- like busses you wait ages then two come together at the same time!

Darren, I would hope that if Grealish comes back he can do something similar to what the great George Best did, but as Dave Abrahams said George was a lot younger than Jack when he went missing. There is no doubt Grealish is a talented player but nowhere near the class of Best and I think at 31 Jacks best days are behind him but I hope I am wrong and you are right.

Very true Josh and although I was made up with the win and the performance on Monday night I realised it was against a very poor Newcastle team.

Darren — George Best was still a young man when he did that — Grealish is on the way down and being the most gifted player, if he is, I think he will have to a lot more than he has done since he came here — it’s a ninety minute plus game now and Grealish never gives anything more than 30 minutes, if that, in any game.Moyes wants him, I think the majority of fans would like him to stay, I’m in a minority who wants him sent back to the club who couldn’t wait to get rid of him.

I posted the other day after the Newcastle game that you can see a side really growing in confidence, usually when we go away from home we tend to sit back for the first 10/15 minutes, but on Thursday they were at it from minute one dominating possession and territory and I cant remember doing that very often. Seems the workrate has gone through the roof and I also think we have some very good players in this squad, that are now beginning to show their potential, certainly KDH is definitely worth an England call up this Friday, could we have 4 players in the squad. Harrison and Hayden are both flourishing and bring youthful exuberance to the team. Defensively we look as good as any team. Just hope this positive play continues and we now believe we can play a more attacking style for the remainder of the season.

Can you show me where I posted George should play left back John?

He’s possibly the worst, good player that I’ve ever seen play for Everton. Surely you mean ‘he’s the best bad player’ Patric?
