Just wondering why so many people on here are against Moyes, in the four full seasons he was in charge we finished above West Ham once, in those four seasons they finished 6th in 20/21 and 7th 21/22, we've never finished 6th in the prem. Last season they finished 9th. So he has a current premier league record of getting top half finishes. He also gets a team fit and defensively sound, in my opinion he is the ideal replacement even if it's short term.

West Ham conceded 74 goals last season in the league. His teams defensive record is worse than ours over the last 4 years. West Ham played turgid football under him but won.

You know ukrainewolf, I think it actually boils down to charisma and personality. We were treated to Nuno's paternal and emotional leadership, then the 'mystique' of lage and lopetegui both sort of 'unknown hopes. GON is an amicable and likeable, relatable sort of guy. I personally see Moyes a sterner sort whereas Potter seems more in the formers' mould.
Football wise moyes comes across as a business end minded manager, who maybe wouldn't be seen as having his heart in Wolverhampton, maybe not tolerant of Fosuns policies?
Of course I'm sure his tactics and style of play influence others but I'm not claiming to be qualified to judge him that way.

That's a good point Abbey, maybe it is just chemistry but upon reflection we probably need a Moyes type right now. I've often thought this club is 'too nice'.

Go for William Still, a left field appointment I know but we need to get away from the old format of trying to get "proven" managers to steer this ship.

Wandering we’ve had one of the better defences in the whole league since we came up with nuno, even under lage it was decent, it was always scoring goals that was the problem, but that was then and this is now. Currently we have the worst defence in the league and we’re on course to break 100 goals conceded this season, 74 in comparison doesn’t sound so bad. Turgid football to a sixth place finish I’d take myself but that’s just me. Yeah abbey I get fans want to be entertained etc and want the club to have a certain image, I’d like a couple of seasons where we’re not stressing that were going to get relegated and would take a boring guy like Moyes to get some stability.

I know what your saying Ukraine. But unless Moyes is allowed to bring in defenders then we simply havet got decent enough players to stop this rot.
