• I've posted before on what Moyes M2 has ages ago said re recruitment being HIS final decision. That's his stated stance. So, if he now states it wasn't him, who actually decided to spend nigh on £100mill on Beto, Barry and Dibling? And if it was him, why? ...
  Don Alexander in Everton have only got themselves to blame, says David Moyes
• There was next to no entertainment across his miserable 38 games in charge, especially at home in front of an expectant crowd. Too often he seemed more focused on nullifying the opponents’ threats rather than focusing on his own side’s attacking strengths – and it wound supporters up no end. Regularly, there seemed a lack of idea over how to break teams down from open play. Tactical switches confused players But soon it became too much, too often… and frequently at the last minute, as well. How many times have we all read exactly the same on TW? But these comments are not about Moyes....

• Whoever scouted and recommended Beto and Barry should be removed and never have another job in football. We’ve now got to manage their departures as skilfully as possible by talking them up and limiting their playing time so they don’t keep showing just how bad they are! We have to cut our losses, they are terrible footballers, completely unfit for purpose in this league. Mykolenko is equally as bad too, so whichever clown is working on contracts had better not extend his contract nor give Coleman another charity contract. ...

• Rob # 198 - yes Rob I have to agree “the problem is much deeper” recruitment is another major issue. Before the Bournemouth game I posted as much @ 260 on the post Fulham thread:- Link So add the recruitment team to my list. Ian # 199 - Arsenal and Utd paid too much for them just like we did for Beto and Barry. Nevertheless I have to ask the question do they bring their team mates into the game because I don’t think our two do very often. Isaak has also failed at Mordor which really surprised me but comparing those three, and what was paid for them, with our two, only deflects from our problem. We need a goal scorer. I forget who it was said it and where on here but a fan of 60 years said our two were the worst strikers he had ever seen play for us. I don’t like bagging players and I have never booed one or the team but we have to face our reality. Playing either of those two handic...

• A couple of quotes from Frank at Spurs "he explained that the offensive flair should not necessarily come at the cost of defensive solidity, pointing out that it is important to defend well to win titles." "if you want to achieve something big and consistently over the years, you also need to be pretty good at defending. I haven’t seen one team achieve something fantastic without being good at defending." Comment on Spurs Newcastle game All of what we saw, including the abject performance, the inability to create chances, and the constant jeers from the crowd, have been regular occurrences at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this season. The Athletic headline Managers can't change their style Where have we heard all that before?...
