The Horse's Mouth Posted 20 November 2017 Share Posted 20 November 2017 14 hours ago, Paddy. said: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/david-moyes-lays-west-ham-11550486 Moyes was pretty critical of his players after the game. To be fair he's not wrong in what he says but I think he's taken a big gamble there by questioning the players so early on in his reign and in such a public way. Could gee them up but more likely could lose them before he's even really begun. He's just trying to save face, he's up there with Steve Bruce when it comes to excuses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain... Posted 20 November 2017 Share Posted 20 November 2017 NP to West Brom, or Even Shakespeare would be a brave call, but a sensible one. They really should be dangling every carrot they have in front of Big Sam, maybe in pie form. They can't go for a fancy continental fella with the players and mentality they have, they would be doomed to fail like De Boer. Wilder or another untried manager at this level could work, but it is a massive risk. Big Sam would give them the boost they need and get the best out of these players even if it is just for a season. Although I really hope they get Pardew in and fail miserably.

Sounds all well and good in principle, but he was respected at Everton - he's not any more. I don't reckon the players will like him, so they prob won't play for him. Remains to be seen though, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wymsey Posted 20 November 2017 Share Posted 20 November 2017 If Fulham and Reading fail to improve on their current positions (places where they should be above really), reckon those clubs could be attractive to him. Not too far to travel from where he's based in Bournemouth etc. However, like some have said, Wales will probably be in for him due to his experience.

I bet the players are already thinking "what have we got him for?" Then he goes and slates their "big" players after their first game. It aint going to end well imo.

Dangle a pie in front of big Sam Agree with NP, but he'd get shakey as assistant and i'd be heartbroken. Reckon Moyes would've been a decent fit for WBA - better than west ham anyway. Hope Meggo gets a couple of decent results and they take him on permanently- then realise how shit he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
