Moyes sees progress but won’t criticise friend Slaven

|

moyes6David Moyes has discussed the progress being made by the Hammers since he took charge of the squad following Slaven Bilic’s sacking.

Speaking to the official site the Scot said: “I think there has been progress in terms of what the team looked like.

“Slaven [Bilic] is a good friend of mine and I would never be critical of anything that went on before.The players wanted a bit of direction and leadership and I think we’ve tried to give them that.

Bilicup“As well as that, we’ve said ‘Here are the ground rules boys. If you don’t want to stick to the ground rules, we’d rather not have you, so just go away.

“But if you do though and you work at it, we’ll include everybody and we’ll try to give you an opportunity’.

“And, to be fair, everybody has done it. They’ve all mucked in. We’ve had big thrills with some of the results we’ve had, but we know that we need to make massive progress on loads of other things.”

    I see Mr Moyes taking more points per game than our previous manager. Is that not progress? When it comes to slagging off people, you don’t do too bad job yourself.

    Mr Moyes sees progress – where? At the New Meadow? Mr Moyes must have a Shaman’s second and third sight…or Specsavers blurred sight more like. Hopefully I’ll have a large slice of humble to scoff after we’ve paid Mr Wagner’s team a visit and rinsed them. After all, Mr Moyes can do it anywhere….according to Mr Moyes that is. As for not slagging off ‘his friend’ Slaven, Lazarus’s comment nails it. Respect.

      There has been progress. That doesn’t mean we’re not still ****. It’s not just black and white, there are billions of greys.

        Yeah, if nobody has seen progress, have they been watching?

        Firstly, A FORMATION CHANGE (yay… Slaven never did)

        Secondly, Masuaku being much more involved

        Thirdly, Moyes making Arnautovic have a better work rate, proving (we all knew anyway) his price tag and record signing.

        There are more, but I bother not writing them!
