Well I think it's fair to say now that Moyes' honeymoon period is over at Everton as we are seeing familiar failings from the team under him as like what we saw before when he was in charge, but for me he needs for time as I still think he's the right man for us at this stage. I also find it incredibly worrying when we as fans can see from outside what the obvious problems we're going to be this season going forwards in regards to the lack of an accomplished striker desperately needed and the board did not do their job properly in regards to the recruitment in this area. Barry looks massively out of his depth and Beto not a lot better. for me, I think we now have nothing to lose by putting someone else up front and mayb bringing Alcaraz or Dibling off the bench to fill in the void. I think Ndiaye could do a job up front until January, at least he can finish when given the chances! Let's face it, this wouldn't be any worse than we've got up front right now so I say to Moyes let's change it around a bit.

We recruited Dibling, Barry, Aznou and Rohl who collectively have added little so far for various reasons including, too young, not ready, injured. While being enthusiastic about recruiting for the future the urgent need was for a proven, premiership experience striker and a right full-back, needs that have been apparent for a long time. Obviously it is not easy to recruit suitable candidates for these positions but the fact that we did not is simply a failure and we will stumble along in mid-table until we do.
{Ed025's Note - my problem with some of our purchases Mike is that they are considered for the future...what about the here and now??, its ok to look to the future when you are established as a top half regular but we are not in that position just now mate, some of our buys have been baffling to say the least, like Barry who i see has more of a future at McDonalds than as a professional footballer, we needed a right back as a matter of urgency yet bought a kid who they are saying is not ready yet...then why buy him ffs, our buyers and scouts need raffling imo..

9th results in 2 3rds of games. Fans are morons.

Grealish, Ndiaye and KDH started our first games in positions to score. Supply seems to be the priority now but failing miserably because Beto and Barry seem devoid of ability and confidence. With those 3, there is no need for Beto or Barry to play with their back to goal, just make their runs coming onto the ball. As for Moyes I will take consistent top 10/ 8 but I suspect it will take a while.

The only moron around here is you FBS, you sound like a 15 year old, I don't normally respond to trash talk but you are the best at it.
