David Moyes

[NickNack]

What bothers me about this season is it’s our away form that’s got us where we are in the table and given how we’ve played for large parts of the season I don’t think that’s sustainable. If our away form reverts to normal levels we’re in for another disappointing season next time.

Seems there’s even more work to do than there was last summer. I’m a Moyes fan on the whole but I’m beginning to have my doubts

[Blues Mahoney]

The squad is rubbish and he has done really well. So many holes to fill and he's brought a good level in spite of that.

However, since Chelsea it has been pretty much disgraceful.

I'd know we'd be mostly solid with him in charge next year but honestly if Iraola was to turn round and say he was interested, we have to don't we? You don't turn someone of his calibre down.

Whoever is in charge in the summer must have money though, we need 5 starters at least. RB/LB/CB/RW/ST. Pretty damning.

And we've can't be giving up August like usual to wait for deadline day, signings before the first game ffs, sick of seeing that bullshit.

[Audrey Horne]

Don't get the solid chat though?

[Bumble]

Next year will be a lot tougher than this year.

A lot of the big clubs who floundered this season will be back stronger.

If we stand still, which we have done for the past three years averaging the same number of points, we'll likely take a step backwards in league position.

Especially if we have a manager that struggles when we need to kick on and show some tactical flexibility.

[Shogun]

Just can't defend his decisions, or should I put it, lack of decisions. None of us are licensed Premier League managers but we can all see that JOB-Tarkowski-Keane-Mykolenko does not work.

You can say he doesn't have options in the squad but I reckon if Iraola was here then you'd see a hell of a lot of Dibling, Aznou and Patterson even if they were initially struggling.

Just feel like Moyes is the wrong man for now and should retire or hopefully the Scotland job comes up in the summer.

[TheRam]

Utterly pathetic end to the season that starts with the manager and his selections in defence.

Please, stop pretending Michael Keane is anything but a terrible centre half everyone

[Audrey Horne]

Also why are the club saying the attendance is higher than it is?

Empty seats again all over.

Just grim. Wish I could switch off and stop caring, stop watching.

Spending money I don't have going the games to be let down time after time after time.

We all know Moyes will be here next year. We all know Tark will be in CB, Mykolenko will be LB etc what's the point?

[Shogun]

The worst part is the approach as well. You talk about knife to a gunfight and all that but it was on display today. The first half especially felt like an end of season game between two clubs with nothing to play for. Where was the urgency? Where was the "We're going to grab Europe by the neck" mentality? Even second half we came out and sat back against a team that is no better than we are when we could have wrote off the first half as getting away with it and then piled on the pressure to win 3-0 and get Coleman on for a proper send off.

Piss poor mentality that can only come from the manager.

We all know that is not and has never been him.

He could have showed them all it wasn't acceptable and made changes at half time, been bold, read the riot act. Whereas we all know what he would have said is 'Just keep it tight lads.' Past 6 games, same side, same tactics, same result.

Everything about his selections and substitutions screams a conservative man who wants to do nothing radical and hopefully sneak a goal.

He stumbles upon decent selections when forced and then reverts back when he has more options.

I'd take a manager who takes a few risks to hopefully progress the team and develop players over a manager who opts for safety first and results in the club and players not moving forwards.

I think finishing 13th or 14th which seems likely now is about what we would have been ok with but not too happy at the start of the season.

It's quite disappointing though because with Spurs and Chelsea floundering we had a real chance at getting European football. If both of them improve next season it will be that much more difficult.

Squad has big issues but Moyes definitely doesn't help himself with his use of the squad and lack of rotation.

I expect him to be here next season but not against us going for someone better if the opportunity is there.

[toffee_scot]

I think your clutching at straws in getting the recruitment right.

No evidence of that, no european football and which players are coming here to play for a very conservative manager.

We'll be making signings in August and scambling around on deadline day like we do every season. Nothing is changing in that respect and whilst Moyes is here

Maybe, hopefully not, not having European football will certainly not help as prospects may hold out for other clubs that can give them that.

Last summer it sounded like we still lacked a head of recruitment and maybe other elements. I just hope this summer that we are much better organised and can get more of the key players earlier, however I don’t doubt some of our business will be done at the end of the window, I just hope we have enough of a decent squad assembled by the first game of the season.

[Blues Mahoney]

Don't get the solid chat though?

I think we've been mostly solid if unspectacular this season, do you not think?

Last few games have been bad, of course. I reckon it will be more of the same next season .

Stick or twist i suppose. Iraola would be a twist from me. Glasner? Probably stick tbh.

Something will have to give, either the recruitment team continue to bring in players they want a manager to play or they allow the manager to dictate the transfer policy, not sure I see the latter so it makes for a very very interesting watch this summer the direction TFG/recruitment team go down the path of.

Maybe we have? In my head all I can see is the constant terrible defending haha

They were in the championship last season and played us off the park.

Young side, striker who’s 24. Diarra 22. Lo Fee 26 okay but none of them a jot of Prem Experience. Exciting project with expectation.
