Season › 2012-13 › News David Moyes — last pre-match conference Michael Kenrick , 17 May, 30comments | Jump to most recent David Moyes gave his last pre-match press conference as Everton manager today, with video of his Q&A available at EvertonFC.com. Again, Moyes tried to keep it all about Everton, despite the typically asinine journo questions, as he looked forward to the Chelsea game. "It would mean a lot to win the game. I want to win as many games as we can and I want to finish the season with a win. We've had a good really record all season. We'll go to Chelsea and go there trying to get the three points."

Disclaimer Paul Andrews 1 Posted 17/05/2013 at 17:00:03 Good luck,you haven't managed to get 3 points at Chelsea in your 10 previous attempts but you never know. Paul Ferry 2 Posted 17/05/2013 at 17:11:34 no real reason not to go all out for it is there?Last game of the seasonA nothing game in the sense that we will not move up or down the tableMoyes's last game - his swansong - so go all out for itMoyes's last game to let the Man-U throngs admire his attacking footieMoyes's last chance to win at one of the 'top-4' in his EFC 11 yearsMoyes's last chance to show Man-U throngs how good Felli and Baines are Colin Glassar 3 Posted 17/05/2013 at 17:15:52 Will he won't he? That is the question. Will Moyes finally go all out for an away win against a top 4 club or will he resort to his normal style and defend? I believe the latter as he won't want to lose his last game. Mick Wrende 4 Posted 17/05/2013 at 17:29:09 Even in his last game Moyes will bottle it as he has all the big away ties. United fans must be shaking in boots at the prospect of never winning again at chelsea, arsenal or the shite. Fortunately nothing rests on tomorrows game because Moyes doesnt know the meaning of the phrase going all out! Brent Stephens 5 Posted 17/05/2013 at 17:38:45 Mick, "bottle it" smells of fear. What's he got to be scared about. F.. all. As Paul says, we'll neither move up nor down (unlike the grand old Duke of York) and he knows where he'll be next season. Jeez, I know the season is over but for some reason I'm really looking forward to this - would just love to finish off with a win against them.In Our New Manager We Trust (whoever he might be) - IONMWT. Gavin Ramejkis 6 Posted 17/05/2013 at 18:20:24 Another loss to Manuel and put your shirt on Lampard to get the winner Tony Cheek 7 Posted 17/05/2013 at 18:31:55 Brent , could shorten that to I?WT.... Brent Stephens 8 Posted 17/05/2013 at 18:36:56 Tony - much more sensible! Jeremy Benson 9 Posted 17/05/2013 at 19:01:34 We must avoid defeat at all costs - Chelsea are the only team who have beaten us at home this season, and thus the only team who can do the double over us.Goodison has been a real fortress, lets hope that continue next season. However I would hope that Moyes would risk throwing velios, duffy and barkley into the mix. Julian Exshaw 10 Posted 17/05/2013 at 19:20:03 Not sure about Velios Jeremy. I don't even think he has been playing for the reserves recently. He may be injured or just out of favour/form. Shame, he looked quite useful in spells and was worth a gamble. Brian Waring 11 Posted 17/05/2013 at 19:27:31 "Last pre-match" Heeeeeeyyyyyy! Brian Waring 12 Posted 17/05/2013 at 19:30:32 By the way, before someone starts preaching to me that Moyes is this/that, a genius etc, the reason why I say "heeeeyyyy" is because it means we're now near the end of all this Moyes tit-for-tat. Jackie Barry 13 Posted 17/05/2013 at 19:35:02 From what I have heard Vellios has been playing for the reserves, may not recently though, and from what I hear he has given a really good account of himself. Jeremy Benson 14 Posted 17/05/2013 at 19:37:17 Every time I've seen Velios, he has looked useful. He is also tall, which is a handy attribute in the box. He is also a nice chap - saw him arrive at GP once and he was very good with waiting supporters.What does he need to do? He has a decent scoring record for us in the very few first team appearances he has. What have we got to lose? Jelavic most likely isn't going to find his scoring boots in the final game - he needs a good pre-season and a few friendlies against cannon fodder to get his confidence up. We know what vic can/can't do.There is no money riding on this game - our league position can't change. Surely ts an opportunity for Moyes to show that fringe players (that he has chosen himself...) can perform for a new manager? Give them a chance. Richard Dodd 15 Posted 17/05/2013 at 19:52:59 Good luck,Davey.The last time I shall ever say that !So just for old-and very good times- IMWT! Peter Mills 16 Posted 17/05/2013 at 22:15:36 I was at the dinner at St George's Hall last night. There was some real media manipulation going on, and Bill Kenwright was vomit inducing at times, but I have to say David Moyes spoke very eloquently and with some humility about his spell at the Club. Steve Guy 17 Posted 17/05/2013 at 22:23:28 BK "vomit inducing" ? You surprise me Peter ! Dick Fearon 18 Posted 17/05/2013 at 22:22:46 Tony 997, Brent 101, or even shorter, Trust ??? Dick Fearon 19 Posted 17/05/2013 at 22:28:13 Or even, T? Andrew Presly 20 Posted 18/05/2013 at 01:41:59 See ya Moyesie. Keep it tight aka lose at Goodison and ideally Wembley when we next meet! Jason Lam 21 Posted 18/05/2013 at 02:51:30 Thank you David Moyes. You and your 4-5-1 won't be missed. Cheerio!I feel a song in me, David Bowie's Sorrow:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkfmPmaTnKg James Stewart 22 Posted 18/05/2013 at 04:00:00 The Fat Spanish Waiter always seems to get the better of Moyes. Derek Wadeson 23 Posted 18/05/2013 at 10:01:55 Brian Waring, we come from different sides of the fence as regards David Moyes, but as from Tuesday onwards he works for Manchester Utd (I know it will be Monday, but the press will all be about Sunday so I am giving it another twenty four hours).Any talk about Everton from that date and certainly on ToffeeWeb should be about the hunt for the new man and not the old.David Moyes I say thanks, some say piss off. Ross Edwards 24 Posted 18/05/2013 at 12:56:02 Good riddance, Mr Moyes. I'm sure the Mancs won't tolerate your snooze-inducing crap. But still, when we have Martinez in charge we will rip you to shreds at Goodison and at your gaff.You will never change, you will always be a big game bottler no matter how much praise or money you have. Dave Lynch 25 Posted 18/05/2013 at 13:08:56 If Mr Negative goes gung ho, it will be another kick in the bollocks.He's never done it before, so why now?I wait with baited breath....... Peter Jones 26 Posted 18/05/2013 at 19:42:52 Osman won't be out there boring the crap out of me for 90 minutes so maybe Barkley gets a crack and proves again that he is twice the talent. Only exciting development in this game for me. Chris Regan 27 Posted 19/05/2013 at 14:06:59 Ross Edwards# 191, are you serious? Ross Edwards 28 Posted 19/05/2013 at 14:26:47 No of course not Chris. I was joking. Chris Regan 29 Posted 19/05/2013 at 14:32:17 Ross, glad to hear it, no matter what people thought of Moyes you ant argue we have not improved on the pitch during his tenure. We're we have stayed static is commercially. This is reflected on the balance sheet. Yes turnover has increased, but that is the premier league negotiating better tv rights not the club doing better. Mike Green 30 Posted 19/05/2013 at 14:32:17 James #122 - and there's he rub James, were all wondering how Moyes is going to approach the game when really we should be seeing if Benitez is really treating this like a job interview.....
