Gana has left the club.

On his day, he is class, but he wasn't as consistent last season, and had a few poor games. He goes before he is considered a liability on high wages. Good luck to him and wherever he ends up.

They both fell off after AFCON, and Moyes didn't help the Club, also dropping its form by his lack of substitutions and tactics.

Gana is older and not as effective, Moyes's fault. The bogs have run out of paper, Moyes's fault.

I actually thought we were starting to look better without him. Great player over the years, but it is the right time to move on. I really think Tim deserves a chance. I felt he was our best player over the last few games.

Yep, blame DM szzzzzzz.

GB's fallen asleep. I'm blaming Moyes' dull football, team sheets and lack of transfers.
{Ed025's Note - its not just Moyes BR its the whole ethos of the club mate, im afraid Nil Satis Nisi Optimum no longer exists at this club its about survival from the get go, im one of the lucky ones who seen trophies and some great sides and great players but that is firmly in the past im afraid, i cant blame guys for being optimistic as when i was naive i always thought "this is our year", then reality kicked in and now we see the likes of Brighton, Bournemouth and even Sunderland finishing higher than us and that tells me everything, will we stay up...yes, will we win anything..no...this is the future of Everton Football Club..SURVIVAL..

Hit the nail on the head there Ed mate
{Ed025's Note - i would love to be wrong mate..

Hope you are wrong Ed25. We were in a terrible position end of 24/25 season as far as the squad goes. We've had two windows to address the issue with mixed results. If Moyes drops the "only pick favourites" approach and makes subs when they are needed, we could do something.
I'm slowly moving towards a future without him in charge and more of the same of last season will just push me towards calling for a change sooner rather than later
{Ed025's Note - i cant just point to one thing and say that is whats wrong with this club BR, its an amalgamation of things mate including scouting, recruitment, lack of ambition and yes the Manager, my problem is that at the moment i cant see a way forward im afraid..

We should have finished higher last season Ed25. There were several games we threw away with poor decision making regarding team selection, subs and lack of subs. I placed those errors at the feet of Moyes. Frustratingly, it's the same Moyes who managed so many away wins.
It doesn't matter who you recruit when we played the systems we play. You wonder if we had someone who could train the players to pass and not lob it up front all the time.
Everything you named has the one common lynchpin the manager. If he doesn't buck up and sort out the losing from winning positions or setting up to draw at home, we will likely see someone else take over. The question is: who is available who is decent and would take a chance on us? Over to Optimum and BN who seem to know more about this sort of thing
{Ed025's Note - i cant argue with that BR..

I feel the ship will be turning but slowly. There was a lot of work to be done with the squad when the Friedkins took over. I am just hoping we see the benefits sooner rather than later!
We are looking to the future with signings now, not being a retirement home for aging pros! I am hoping for second season bounce for some of those, but we do need to add more, and one of these Right Backs other teams seem to utilise. ?
The youth setup needed an overhaul, we need to start generating more talent from within the club. But then we will need a manager who will bring them into the first team as well.
Our finances are improving, unfortunately.
As I understand it, our spending this window is based off the revenues from the last season at Goodison, which is why we are still a bit tight on funds, but we are better off under SCR than PSR.
The revenues for events being hosted at Hill Dickinson, the Magic Weekend, England Fiji game and the Lionesses, plus the increase in matchday revenues, will start showing up in the next set of finances.
We could do with getting an NFL game and some concerts as they make loads for Spurs.
Being in my 50's, I have enjoyed some of the successful years myself, and I hope my son gets to enjoy some as well. Fingers crossed.
