• risk-averse leader to keep things steadyrnrnI think this sums up the conundrum and perhaps the divide of opinions amongst the fans. Moyes is very much to blame for us conceding 2 late goals, just as his tactics lead to us scoring 3. It where the buck stops, and Moyes has a history of bottling it against the big boys. Not sure what it is in him, but something prevents him from managing teams that can squeeze out the wins that would project him into genuine winner status.rnrnKevin Molloy said in another post, why do some people think getting rid of Moyes is not a huge risk.rnrnIt is. I don\'t think any fan doesn\'t recognise that we could do a Tottenham.rnrnSo just like Moyes, some fans are risk averse whilst others are more accepting of the risks.rnrnLike Keyser Söze once said \"the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that 8th place was winning\"rnrnBill Kenwright was so scared of getting relegated, being that...

• A loan move for sure. He\'s a level above. Like Rodriguez, though his limitation, you know some magic could happen when he\'s got the ball. The ability to consistently pass accurately, draw opponents in worths the price....

• What is this \'type of football\' nonsense anyway.rnrnThere are so many ways to play football. My gripe with davey dull-ball is that it\'s so damn boring. rnrnJust play with intensity and intent, no matter your tactics or style of play and the fans will back you and support you.rnrnMonday\'s game showed that. The first half was truly abject, no intensity at all. The second half we had a go, put some pressure on, played with intent and should have won the game. There was no discernible shift in the \'style\'. There was simply an upshift in energy and forcefulness for 20 minutes.rnrnUnfortunately, David Moyes will always default to sucking the life out of games, decreasing risk and boring the life out of fans. Its how he\'s made a career....

• Dubling at 40m plus we would be lucky to get 18m. This is not that Moyes hasn\'t played him. Its because he simply isn't good enough. It is buying an over hyped youngster, who had a good half season with southampton, but was later dropped from the starting lineup. Unfortunately that fit in form was what he brought with him to everton. And Grorge isn't showing much either....
