IMO Moyes has done a really good job since returning. I know the comparisons become tiresome but having sat in goodison for the last however long fearing relegation and listening to away supports taking the piss it is great to be in a better place. I also think he should go in the summer with our thanks. There has to come time when the club moves forward. David has started us down the road someone with a bit more ambition needs to carry us on. (Got to say though as I am no expert not sure who!).

The management of Dibling and to a lesser extent Aznou, has left a lot of thing of things to be desired for, especially from a financial perspective. How much would Dibling be worth now? His lack of game time is killing is his confidence, and if we were allegedly short on the left hand side, why did we buy him? No one is going to dislodge Ndiaye, so the charge that he can\'t break into the team isn\'t fair. Aznou should be playing more. End of.

how innovative though can you be Tony with a right flank of Dibling/Patterson/O\'Brien? One thing we can all agree on at this point is that the first goal in any of these games is absolutely crucial. As such I can\'t blame Moyes for being cautious at fullback, none of our fullbacks add anything to the attack, so what is the point in encouraging them to go forward, it only makes us more vulnerable to a sucker punch. We were doing just fine until KDH got injured and the Afcon arrived. And once they\'re back we will be fine. I agree, the centre forwards are a real issue. I would say it\'s the one big problem we have. We really needed Barry to offer more than he currently is. And Beto now just needs to be sold. I suspect both will go in the summer. Barry is like Benjamin Button, he\'s getting younger every time I see him, he looked about fifteen at the weekend, and is disappearing from view.

David 28, I don\'t think it\'s the manager at Brighton who has them playing the way they do, it\'s the culture which has been developed by the club over the last 10 years. Successive managers at Brighton have played a similar way, Recruitment also has also a consistent formula. The culture at Brighton, Brentford and Bournemouth may have been born out of necessity but it wipes the floor with our continual scattergun strategy and recruitment. Moyes has brought in his hangers on including his son. When he gets the sack which he will do eventually they will all disappear and we are left back at square 1. The owners need to show some leadership and innovation to build us back up into a competitive force otherwise they are just in it to take the dividends and run.

I’ve been reading about Nick Cox, Dave, and it was very intriguing to see that he took his coaching badges, a lot later on in his career. So one of the things I wonder, is why did he decide to take his badges after all those years in the game? That’s not a criticism, I’ve read up on him and he does seem to have his own opinions, opinions that make me think that he’s not just another stand in line, yes man, that the game is littered with, and can often be the reason for promotion. (Why am I so fucking cynical) I am intrigued because if I had anything to do with Everton, the first thing I would try to do at youth level, is to try and replicate what Manchester United, have always done, because they have always been very good at bringing kids through.
