Crazy how everyone thought Tim Steidten won the transfer window
I think the only actual good signing he made was AWB
Even Summerville was a sully special lol
iloveuzaba
It’s the only time he runs
iloveuzaba
He says naughty words in interviews and publicly slags his teammates off though so I think he should be captain
iloveuzaba
Why would our best striker start games on the bench lol
iloveuzaba
Can’t criticise Steidten signings. I think we’re still expecting Todibo to be “world class”

Bowen will get the ball more because he’s our best player by a country mile and Nuno is pragmatic enough to recognise that that’s more important than any system he might prefer to play
iloveuzaba
It’s good to have a manager again that cares more about winning than “principles” and “systems”. That combined with the quality of some individuals in the team is more than enough to stay up despite the relative strength of the teams that came up this year
iloveuzaba
There must be more to it than that to not even have him travel with the squad. I highly doubt he thinks JWP offers less than Irving for example

Grealish currently has the most assists in the league and has openly spoken about how much he’s enjoying playing under Moyes. Why are some of our fans so desperate to act like Moyes is a bad manager? Can’t you just be happy with the miraculous job he did for us, accept it was time to part ways, and stop disrespecting him for no reason?
The last season + handful of games was a taster of the trajectory we were travelling down before Moyes stepped in (twice). We’ve now hopefully lucked out in bringing in a manager who’s very similar to Moyes (will Nuno wreck what’s left of Bowen’s career, do you think?) and have cause for optimism again. That optimism wouldn’t be possible if it weren’t for Moyes because we’d be languishing in the championship right now most likely

6th, 7th, 14th, 9th
If the rest of the league figured out his tactics, they did a terrible job acting on it
And if he’s been figured out, why did he join Everton - who had a worse squad than us - and completely leapfrog us in the table lol?

The 3 and a half years before it? The first half of that same season?
iloveuzaba
Sullivan and Steidten have really done a number on this club. Hopefully Nuno can get something out of these players
iloveuzaba
Okay, not bad form. Horrendous form with some extremely embarrassing defeats
I still think he should’ve stayed. I am not being “selective” with my memories, that’s all you
iloveuzaba
While going unbeaten and winning a European trophy? And then reaching the quarters the next season? Where’s your nuance? You can’t just compare 25 games and claim it’s a 1:1 comparison. Even with that “identical” shit form, Moyes still performed much better than Potter
If you think Potter deserved to go, then you can talk about that without talking shit about Moyes who Potter doesn’t even come close to

9th

Still crying about Moyes 2 years after being proven wrong. Moyes is in our top 3 greatest managers ever and it was wrong to let him go even after some bad form (we finished 9th). That was obvious to anyone with a brain at the time given who owns the club.
And it’s been definitively proven after last season and the start of this one where we’ve been consistently one of the worst teams in the league after spending a couple hundred million on top of the squad that Moyes finished 9th with
Many people are unable to have the humility to admit to being wrong so I don’t blame you for trying to cling to your initial beliefs. But, do us all a favour and keep it to yourself instead of making us all read your nonsense 👍
iloveuzaba
Except this is all of Potter’s games at the club, but you’re ignoring everything Moyes did before the bad form. We finished 9th even after that “sackable” form
iloveuzaba
Moyes out
iloveuzaba
We generally have about 2 players on the pitch capable of winning a header. It was 1 for most of yesterday since Soucek is suspended. Plus neither of our keepers can claim a cross. No set piece “tactics” can get around those facts and they are what we need to rectify first
iloveuzaba
It was absolutely the wrong choice. The fact that he achieved what he did under this board is nothing short of miraculous
Why do you think everyone was saying “be careful what you wish for”?
iloveuzaba
One of the dumbest things I’ve read on this subreddit, and you’ve got a lot of competition. Nice one
iloveuzaba
All these “shit” players were good under Moyes. Is it clicking for you yet?
Also, since clearly this hasn’t been explained to you: the manager doesn’t decide how much we spend on a player
iloveuzaba
He gets booed by our fans by the way. While bums like Todibo and the “Big Fucking German” are universally loved for doing fuck all every week
iloveuzaba
He was completely anonymous after the first 10 mins. Shiny toy syndrome
Hard to get injured strolling around for 10 mins every week and slagging his teammates off on TV
