• It's absolutely impossible and a daydream for Tony A or anyone else to 'switch off' from Everton: With the window opening in a week from now.The widespread scepticism about TFG and what they will do and sheer curiosity about what they might do.The daily debates about Moyes.The inextinguishable memory of the last seven games of the season.And, quite frankly, the utter unmitigated love that we fans have for the club we have loved since we were a few feet high that matters so much for who we are....

• Everton outgrew Moyes about 20 years ago. A few months after he left to guide Man Utd to even greater glory…...

• “It's the summer time, I'm glad I have mostly been able to switch off from them”Me too Tone, yet here we are!I'm used to Everton doing f*** all in the early days of the transfer window and I'm usually okay with that but kinell I'm getting frustrated as hell with the silence from TFG and the club.I feel they're taking our acceptance of this mediocrity for granted!...

• Billy Kenny was a lad who had all the talent but was easily led astray, remember him against RS absolutely bossing the game but he couldn\'t stay off the ale etc, Franny Jeffers f***ed his career up going to Arsenal, a hard move to turn down, granted… but I reckon if he\'d have stayed with us he\'d have had a better career. Michael Branch was a kid who we thought was going to be a star for us but again, for one reason or another, that never materialised. I was a big James Vaughan fan but the lad was really unlucky with injuries. I\'ve always been a fan of Ross Barkley, that first season under Roberto he was excellent and he\'s another who has suffered with injuries, Rooney was brilliant and it was heartbreaking to see an Evertonian signing for Man Utd. ...
  Mick O\\\'Malley in “I’ve been working hard on different parts of my game” – Braiden Graham plots pre-season push to impress Moyes
• Inigo Perez is actually the sort of manager that I would like, but as MG said, that horse has bolted. rnrnWe just have to get out of the \'plucky\' \'stability\' mould that Moyes exemplifies. Other clubs - we know who they are and they were once beneath us for the most part - have a track record of younger more \'modern\' coaches. Why can\'t we? Moyes makes us look old-fashioned now.rnrnMind you, TFG appointed Claudio Ranieri as Roma gaffer in 2024. rnrnThe next season, if it is to be with Moyes, will only increase the ironic reality of a club with a state-of-the-art 2026 stadium - and owners who seem to value this - and a Steptoe-and-Son coaching team. rn...

• I could not agree more. The possession side of Moyes's game plan is mainly passing back in the midfield. On numerous occasions, we have had 8 to 10 passes and moved in an area of no more than 4 m forward then back; this is tactacal -- the players are told to keep their positions. I often wonder... Do they train together? No one seems to know what position anyone else is supposed to move into. They wait for something to give, which as we all know does not on lots of occasions. With massive holes all over the park and wrong players fitting in wrong roles. Let's look at the Red Shite's first goal in the derby -- from defence to goal in about 3 passes... I never liked Moyes the first time but I felt he was needed when he came back. He cannot admit he is wrong.Wake up, David! Thanks for steadying the ship but time's up... Go, Go, Go!!! ...
