Wouldn't surprise me if both indicated they wouldn't play another minute for the man again. Even though completely agree letting them both go with zero replacement when we already had a thin squad as it was is absolutely mental.

"I’m certainly not a Moysey fan, but I don’t think he can be blamed for benrahma, he played loads, was giving plenty of freedom, and constantly made the wrong decision, or was too weak in possession or just blasted it 30 feet over the bar. He’s pony, and that’s why he’s gone to a struggling team in France. Now in saying that, I can not believe the club have got rid of both of them without bringing anyone in. An absolutely insane decision."

Agree on Benny. Had he been at Brentford for the last few seasons he'd have looked twice the player. Moyes clearly never wanted him and never played him to his actual strengths.

Moyes had no idea how to play benrhama. The best spell he had at us . Was when he was put out on the right during Bowens heel injury picked up against the scoucers in early 2022 . Was the best player during that time. but in typical Moyes fashion was discarded like shit stained piece of toilet paper once his favourites returned.

Benni was a Sully Special. Moyes never wanted him. And for the most part. It showed.

"not sure what they're up to, looks like they're sabotaging the remainder of the season much like he did with the domestic cups. If it means he fucks off at the end of the season, it'll be worth jt"

"Good riddance to Be my. Worst winger we had for ages. How on earth did we end up with him when Watkins was available at the same time. Oh, Moyes ofc"

"What the fuck have these clowns done here then? We were well short before the window, now we're properly down to the bare bones and the only player we brought in looks every bit the fucking crock with no football anyone with a brain suspected we were getting. Fucking trio of idiots. Am I clutching at straws in the hope that they've done a deal with Steidten to make him stay and that involves binning Moyes at the end of the season and therefore they've not let him waste anymore money? Yeah I think I am. Got to dream aint ya. Otherwise, what the fuck was the plan here? Season is over."

Benni might do a job in one of Europe's lesser leagues. But he never be able to pull tree's up at one of the European Elites. That's the standard we are aiming for now. I thank him for all he did. And wish him all the best for the future.

"Benrahma was often frustrating, and his decision making was questionable. But he scored a few important goals for us and kept his nerve for the important penalty in the Conference final. I‚Äôll be grateful for that. To be honest, I think Lyon have pulled our pants down but that wouldn‚Äôt be the first time. Fornals was a decent player for us, but lost his way and couldn‚Äôt find a position that he could hold down. He also scored a few goals for us and is a hero for the semi final goal. Again, I think he is worth more than the packet of smarties that we got for him. But Moyes has a tendency of lowering the value of players. Still, I‚Äôm looking forward to seeing the youth being blooded ?üôÑ"

Hopefully Paqueta & Antonio are fit and we don't get any injuries otherwise it's more of what we witnessed last night.

We now have the smallest and oldest squad in the Premier League. Well done Red Bull Moyes.

The Sun SAID BENRAHMA'S delayed move from West Ham to Lyon will go through. Fifa have granted the French side's appeal and the Hammers have now submitted the necessary information. Benrahma is expected to seal his transfer in the next few hours. The ruling on Benrahma's transfer could also see Pablo Fornals join Real Betis.

"Also forgot, what a choice we have for players to play up front, so therefore no need to bring in a genuine centre forward."

"Moyes believes he’s a tactical genius and can turn any player from any position into something completely different, we’ll in theory he’s succeeded because he has turned decent players into absolute useless ones, his next project will be to make Paqueta into a goalkeeper."

"Cornet is a left winger, has Moyes ever actually played him there? I only recall his brief appearances being on the right wing or a striker."
