"Well, talk about "rabbits in headlights"! This was just plain embarrassing lads. Glad they didn't put the first team out! You all know what the game-plan was. Defend for 85 minutes then Timmy notches one late on! What went wrong?... and why does everyone hold the ball too long? Can none of you pass a ball with the first touch any more?"
"Tim, great game again. Kept us in it a couple of times, and no chance with the goal."
"Tony, 10 points for effort but thought you were on the wrong side of your man a couple of times, and buy some new boots, you can`t pass properly with square toes, lad."
"Jags and Syl, bleeding heroes today, you two! MotM for you Jags! Really felt sorry when that went in. Bit indecisive for the goal, Syl, but just wish others could pass a ball like you."
"Leighton, good job you don't play against Valencia every week, you'd never get a sniff of an England shirt son. Looked a bit lost to me, and slow. Might have to start calling you "late-un".
"Seamus, again, a long way from your best. I remember when you used to go past defenders, son, those were the days!"
"Phil, some wicked passing out there today! ... What do you mean "Thanks boss"? ? WICKED, as in complete crap, and don´t try to dribble players, son, you just make a prat of yourself."
"Ossie, good disappearing act son, well... at least you tried to play a bit."
"Bily, look, I know players that can´t control a ball, but you can´t control a frigging telephone catalogue son. You lost the bleeding ball every time you got it. You HAD to come off. I hope you are fit next week, Mikel!"
"Jack, looked bleeding nervous son! Do you know how many times you passed a ball forwards today? Well, I don´t need two hands to count on, that's for sure! What about taking a chance with a first-time pass for once! You bleeding frustrate me lad. Can do better! Might have to off-load you while your name is still hot!... Only joking!"
"Becks, you looked like a frightened schoolboy son. You`ve got one of the longest necks I`ve seen, but every time you jumped with Ferdinand, you wound it in, son! Yes, I know it was a penalty, but you don`t get penalties here, everyone knows that."
"Big Vic, well, at least you didn't look frightened, lad. Difficult game to step into."
"Tim, we did get going a bit when you came on, just because you can hold the ball for a while."
"Magaye, at least you went past players, not bad!"
"Next year I will ask the FA If we can just play 37 games, we can just give United the points. Let's face it, we are never going to get a point here. I'll never get a job here now ? that's for sure! Right, Wigan next week. Back to winning ways again."

He was at it again last week when asked about whether Rodwell was a done deal, telling people a glorious club like Man Utd don't do those sort of things and neither do Everton... Bullshit, Davey, it's common knowledge they are like a cancer in the scouting system ? and let's not mention the Rooney saga. We will never win at Utd whilst he is manager as he just goes there to sit back and ogle the fuckers.
You can sum up Moyes management in a single sentence. After 9 long years of team-building, club record breaking transfers and youth development, we take the field for the second half against the most successful team in the Premier League, relying for our main goal-scoring threat on Victor Anichebe, whose total production in 15 league and cup appearances this season is... zero.
They don't all have to cost what Torres and Carroll cost. Hernandez was only £6M! Instead, we have Beckford and Anichebe, neither of whom are Premier League strikers. That's a decade of team building!
I am not angry, upset, shocked, suprised... in fact, I am not anything. The feeling of acceptance from yesterday's defeat from Everton Football Club as a whole speaks volumes. I know people will churn out the old "but most other teams that have played them away have lost."I will be perfectly honest... I couldn't give a shit about any other teams. To go into ANY match, regardless of who your are playing, and not show any attacking intent is criminal. Defend Moyes all you want but yesterday was a complete and utter cop out as far as I could see. Clueless, naive, predictable drivel. Nothing more nothing less.
I fancy us to put a few past Wigan next week... that's our level. I get the feeling even with financial muscle we will fail to deliver and compete with the bigger teams. We are not winners, plain and simple, We accept defeat and love a good pat on the back from Fergie. Not good enough... not anywhere near good enough.
Some 20-goals-a-season striker! He was over-rated, over-priced and over-paid, as was Beattie, as was Johnson. At least with Beckford and Anichebe we got what we paid for. Nothing!
A lot of the recently bought players are very young. No idea if they're much good, although have been quite impressed with Gueye.
