Seconded

Strikers always get a rough run in Moyes teams. How many seasons has he had a striker score more than 15? One for the primary roles of the striker in his system is to be the platform for attacks, and that is usually to the detriment of their goalscoring We'd be better off with Chris Wood for Moyes b...

Doesn't sound like a solution to me

Mature for his age, you can see why Moyes is ok starting him.

Looks more comfortable deeper too.

We should still be sending him back to Preston at the end of Jan.

There's no way he's starting ahead of KDH, Gana, Tim, Garner or Alcaraz

He can go now IMO

Waste of a squad place, blocking the development of others

He was very positive and very determined which I loved to see. .I think he looked raw on some occasions and definitely wouldn't be starting him, but needs to be coming off the bench with 20 left the next few games to see it he can replicate that level of energy and drive. Definitely raw. Great atti...

What is the point of having him here

Moyes has the final say on transfers though. This committee set up gives him more input in recruitment than managers who work under a DoF, which is most PL teams

Played like he had a point to prove.

You can see he has the pedigree of coming through La Masia, let's see what he's got FFS.

Needs to play ahead of McNeil if McNeil is going to play LW for sure.

Should also be given a chance at left back when we are losing games.

Fuck what? He’s doing fine. We need to stop thinking changing managers all the time is the silver bullet. Things need to get a lot worse before a change of manager is even considered. I'm not advocating for sacking him but his team selections even from early on in the season have had the same Moyes...

You just knew it was gonna be a shitshow with who we had on the pitch

Moyes gets more of a say in transfers than most managers in the PL

No excuses for him imo

Think its more the equivalent of someone getting caught with an elbow when jumping or slapped by a stray hand. Its not intentionally violent and never a red Disagree that it's comparable to an elbow, he grabs his hair and pulls it down like he's climbing a rope FFS. Nothing like raising your elbows...

That bench lol

Might be a lineup that's interesting to watch, at least
