Season › 2012-13 › News ''We could have scored six or seven'' Michael Kenrick , 22 September, 20comments | Jump to most recent “Both the result and performance were very good but the result is the most important thing,” David Moyes told the BBC. “We could have scored six or seven but they also had three or four opportunities but our goalkeeper made some good saves.” Quotes or other material sourced from The Sport Review Reader Comments (20) Note: the following content is not moderated or vetted by the site owners at the time of submission.

Disclaimer Barry Rathbone 1 Posted 22/09/2012 at 18:14:09 Fair comment.Much prefer what Moyes is up to these days we'll have off days like the WBA game and we'll be more open but it's a fair trade in my book.We play with a bit of devil and it's to be applauded, no coincidence we're getting better results. Keep this up and anything is possible. Christopher Kelly 2 Posted 22/09/2012 at 20:46:11 It's also just more fun to watch! Keep it up Jason Heng 3 Posted 23/09/2012 at 05:48:21 Anichebe's recent goals make him look better than ever before. But the wasted chances tell us that he simply isn't good enough. Neil Pickering 4 Posted 23/09/2012 at 07:03:37 Don't get me wrong, going forward we are great to watch, but we also could have conceded 4 or 5 yesterday; a good side would have buried us on the break. Moyes needs to address the holding role in front of back 4 quickly. Let's hope Gibson is back soon because we are really missing his positional sense and ball retention.Coyb. Alan Clarke 5 Posted 23/09/2012 at 07:32:22 Bit harsh, Jason. Colin Potter 6 Posted 23/09/2012 at 09:35:43 Contrary to what his supporters have been saying, Moyes is proving, to me and everybody else who've been saying it, you don't need "loads of money" to play football! Let's hope he keeps it up, there's no reason why he shouldn't. Dan Brierley 7 Posted 23/09/2012 at 09:52:04 Colin, do you not see any correlation whatsoever with the amount we have spent in this transfer window and the improved standard of football since we have spent that money?How do you think we would be getting on without Pienaar or Mirallas in the side? Paul Gladwell 8 Posted 23/09/2012 at 09:55:51 I had a go on here about the hype of Anichebe's performance against the Geordies as I did not think he played too good. Yesterday, he had the best game I have seen him play for us; he should have scored more but he had a great game. I think those wanting Mucha in yesterday were also put in their place as Howard made some pretty vital saves at a time the game could have changed against us, a superb performance from everyone of them. James Newcombe 9 Posted 23/09/2012 at 10:01:06 I wish people would give Anichebe a break, he had a fair record last year and has got two in two this season. Like just about any forward, he's a confidence player and I think he'll start to convert more chances as the games go on.I wonder how many of us could do our jobs well if we had several thousand people calling us every name under the sun in the background! Colin Potter 10 Posted 23/09/2012 at 10:13:23 Dan, don't you think what we've spent is paltry compared to what some others have spent? Moyes, I think, has maybe started to believe he can do it and has changed his tactics, and that didn't cost anything. Kev Johnson 11 Posted 23/09/2012 at 10:21:02 I like to think that we, the assembled throng on ToffeeWeb, deserve a lot of credit – and possibly a cash reward – for the recent improvement in Victor's form. Our constant criticism of him has acted like a spur, galvanizing him into action.If I had to pick one person to pick up the Best Coaching Award and pocket the cash, I'd say... ME. I've always said he was a big useless lump with the ball skills and emotional maturity of a toddler – and my words have finally borne fruit.COYTW! Thomas Windsor 12 Posted 23/09/2012 at 10:24:05 2 goals, 2 games... keep it up, Victor! Now practice on your first touch and you could become a good player. James Newcombe 13 Posted 23/09/2012 at 10:33:42 I never thought of it that way, Kev. Good work! Barry Rathbone 15 Posted 23/09/2012 at 10:33:14 Dan 452The "money" hasn't come from a benefactor which has been the argument.Self-generated funds via wheeler dealing has provided what we see today and that avenue has always been available.If Moyes hasn't done it successfully before, that's down to him. Kris Boner 16 Posted 23/09/2012 at 10:52:50 Very quickly becoming my favourite poster on here Kev, Love your stuff.Certainly made the transfer window bearable... Eugene Ruane 17 Posted 23/09/2012 at 11:14:05 Kev (462) but what drives us all here?If you want to give credit where it's due, top right of page when you open TW, surely!Let's face facts - if it weren't for the girl sitting on the bed with the inch thick specs, in the Mature Dating UK ads, there'd be tumbleweed blowing across TW and we'd all be showing our tats on Bluekipper.I'd actually love to meet her to try a chat-up line I've been working on."You must have fantastic eyesight.....to be able to see through those fucking things" Brent Stephens 18 Posted 23/09/2012 at 11:55:37 Kev Johnson for player-manager, NOW! Paul Gladwell 19 Posted 23/09/2012 at 13:19:56 No-one is being harsh on Anichebe, everyone has said he had a great game. Kris Boner 20 Posted 23/09/2012 at 14:30:23 Brent Stephens - Great Shout Paul Smith 21 Posted 24/09/2012 at 13:46:11 This is the most exciting team we have produced under Moyes and we look a threat all over the pitch. Hope we keep this good form up just a nagging doubt that the Vadis deal could come back to bite us on the bum as the only place were really short is centre mid.
