Too many ready to pounce when the chips are down, yes west ham was a bad game the players out there got caught out a number of times, and easy to say on another day tosun gets 2 and niasses shot goes in off the bar.

But great managers and great teams are not built overnight and this set of players we have look like once everyone is fit, settled and used to how each other play should and could be capable of winning more matches.

We are yet to see what could be described as our 1st team set up due to injuries and suspensions so my judgement and everyone else's should be reserved till we have at least seen it.

I still think a decent striker is needed but there not cheap, but saying that if the likes of Richardson, Bernard Walcott and Sig all chip in with a few as there more than capable of doing we will be fine.

What with injuries and suspensions. our team has not been the same 2 games running! Just need to tighten up defence and start popping a few chances in. 100% better than the trash served up last season!

Well said Degsy yes it was a bad day at the office just put it behind and move on to the next game.

On a positive note. If we beat Arsenal, the West ham game will be long forgotten. 😁.

There will be more setbacks like West Ham but compared to last season its night and day and the more players we get back from injury or suspension and have them playing together and getting to know each other then the better we will get.


Does anyone really think Brands hasn't been a success?

rubbish, even Silva is still here after 5 games. Doesn't that prove all you doubters that were saying he's not here for the long term wrong? (of course it doesn't but just wanted to say it anyway)


We've seen Bernard for less than 90 min, Richarlison has been suspended for half our games, Mina and Gomes still haven't played. Let's wait and see the team after they have been integrated into the starting 11/ squad.

We, as supporters, want everything immediately but we've all watched football before. It doesn't happen that way. Kendall took time, Ferguson took time, Pochetino is taking time (look at them versus the reds) , Man City didn't happen overnight.


Give this team some time, support them and then watch them go. We have the basis of a really good side, might need some changes but, versus last season, a hell of a lot better and we need to get behind them - thick and thin


COYB NSNO.

We kind of should realise where bigger in our own eyes than the eyes of others.
The koeman and Sam days have lowered our profile unfortunately undoing all the work like it or not moyes achieved.
I'm sure there are players that will know what brands can do for a club, and there's players that will think what if what happened to klassen and some extent lookmam and vlasic, will think what if that's me and I end up on the bench.
If lookmam goes and becomes world class it's how it is, he has hardly kicked a ball for us so like klassen won't be a loss we will notice.
It's an impossible task if the supporters have doomed us before the seasons started, win loose or draw the team needs to know it has our support,
Lets give the guys a chance we won't be great this year and have to accept that, and just hope in 2 to 3 years the last 2 to 3 years are a distant memory overwritten by our future success.

I think Moyes lowered our profile to a plucky underdog team that punched above its weight. It was never the case.

We are an important historical team but one that is in major transition. It will take time AND trophies to change opinion.

When you win a trophy and do it consistently you raise your profile. Just look at City and Chelsea.


2.) 30 Jul 2018 14:31:04
I think Moyes raised our profile with the underdog tag, before that, especially in the premier league era, we flirted with relegation far too often. I agree with BJU, time, patience and trophies will, hopefully, raise the profile again but some fans need to understand that things won't change immediately overnight.


3.) 30 Jul 2018 15:53:15
How does Moyes get so much stick from us still, he saved us from going out the league and slowly built identity and a work ethic and had us playing some great football in spells but even when it was not pretty we were organised. And difficult to beat and had us regularly challenging for Europe, and bottom line on the pitch we were in better shape then we are now.


4.) 30 Jul 2018 16:47:31
How could Moyes lower it after Smith's diabolical reign and that Of a few Howard the 3rd and walker eras? I like to dig Moyes out too but I won't 're write history to do it.

"If I was still manager i'd let the player go to a bigger club and not hold him back" after offering peanuts for our players and probably explained why Arteta went for £10m.

"Managing Everton is like taking a knife to a gunfight" he made me feel on top of the world with this one.

"This is as far as this club can go" after finishing 7th. Couldn't wait for the next season to start.

-Moyes


Go and pick a thousand quotes from proper Everton managers. Take a look at what Royle and Kendall did.

Both of them even though they had bad teams and poor investment didn't degrade the club and made the players realise they WERE at a big club. Both had genuine success.

I'm not saying he didn't a good job. However, he didn't do anything but create an aura of mediocre, even though at times we weren't.


6.) 31 Jul 2018 00:42:23
Moyes was a great manager he built a team that we could be proud of with very little money. We where allways competitive and he was very clever in the transfare market.
I thnk he would make a wonderfull football director now for our club. He knows the club inside out, knows the fans and a great talent spotter.
It will never happen of course because after Brants will be another European in the job.

What has he won again?

It's a bit nieve to expect too much too soon, this bunch of players are either past it, hated and as many have posted simply not good enough. Can't believe some would even entertain selling pickford if we want to build this club he us a player we need to keep. It's going to take time to sort out this mess we are in let's give it.

Nah degsy ain't moaning his opinions are often perceived that way, it's true defence is a shambles but so have been the last 2 years, we are at present the best of a bad bunch behind the top 6, if we break into the top 6 we become a more attractive destination.

Brands will have raised our stature but he ain't no magician and we have to let the seeds he has planted bloom.

We played most of these games with our 3rd choice keeper, I'm not sure he is as vocal at telling his defence there useless as pickford is.
