Moyes tactics
Are they the reason why we struggle in the transfer market and players and coaches seem to want leave.

Re: Moyes tactics
I just want him to go. Thanks for the trophy and all that, but the football is unbelievably dull and I just want to enjoy watching my team play, with a few players who get you off your seat. We have those, but they are shackled by the manager and his dull approach to the game.

It feels like this season will be one which just exists until Moyes hopefully goes.

Re: Moyes tactics
I imagine it's more to do with us management and collaboration skills with regards to coaches leaving. Moyes doesn't appear to empower his coaches. Given that he took the set pieces coaching off the set piece coach last season and he didn't take on ideas from the other. Add in its obvious Moyes has got 12 months left it was probably the right time to jump ship.

What tactics?

Takashi Miike 11:11 Fri Jul 21
Re: Moyes tactics
sit back, preferably on the six yard line
ten men behind the ball at all times
let the other team have the ball 90% of the time
depress not only your own fans, but also your players and fellow coaches

Ah yes I can relate TM

In that case, a big fat YES to the op

Re: Moyes tactics
AKA, so you genuinely believe that our first trophy for 43 years attracts players to WHU alone?

Re: Moyes tactics
The trouble is that the average pundit will blindly say how ungrateful we are because he ‘kept us up’ and won us our first trophy in 43 years. Failing to mention that the only real ‘quality’ we faced in the entire competition was Alkmaar and Fiorentina. Even they were just okay.

It was a brilliant feeling, of course it was, but we were favourites to win it as it was a lesser European competition.

Sacking Moyes, after he won the trophy, would have been a real statement of intent. And justifiable, given the horrendous league campaign we had. A new manager would have had a great platform to build on, the Rice money and a Europa League place. And a great salary.

Re: Moyes tactics
Don't think it's necessarily why we struggle in the transfer market- do we particularly? If we do I think it's more because of the way we go about our business and recruitment than the tactics of the manager.

Definitely contributes to some players and coaches being unhappy or wanting to leave though, IMO.

Re: Moyes tactics
Kd of course not but we pay good wages, play in london, get 62k every home game , we are in the europa league and are massive!!!

Re: Moyes tactics
Definitely a combination El.
It's been said before, both David's would suit a pub team rather that a PL team

Re: Moyes tactics
AKA, absolutely right, but despite those facts we are struggling

Nagel 11:33 Fri Jul 21
Re: Moyes tactics
I can't see why Moyes' tactics would be a reason why we're apparently struggling to get a new DM in. The fact that we do play so defensively and that for the last 3-4 years our manager coached someone who's become one of the best DMs in world football should make them more likely to want to join, if anything.

Fact is, most footballers will care mostly about their salary, status and location of the club and the league/European competition that the club plays in. Chances are that whatever manager you sign for will be gone in a year or two anyway.

Vexed 11:40 Fri Jul 21
Re: Moyes tactics
Yes definitely. Half our existing squad don't want to be here. You could see why Palinha would be keen, Moyes would build a team round him. Funny that Maguire thinks hes too good for us, we're one of the last places in the modern game whose tactics or lack of would embrace an ageing slow clogger warhorse type.

Re: Moyes tactics
There’s not a single West Ham supporter that given the option of a PL win and then an FA Cup win playing half decent football but then have to suffer a relegation would not take it.

Including you twofacedcunt…..they even did the CL something we will most likely never do….hence Rice felt he had to move on.
