Moyes sticks to his guns

|

David Moyes is sticking by his 40 point survival target declaring: “That would pretty well see us there.”

The manager goes into tomorrow’s game against Burnley convinced that any Premier League team beat any  other as the season boils up to a frantic finale.

Speaking at his pre-Burnley presser he said: ”  “This is the most competitive I’ve known it. Anywhere down from the top six anyone can beat anyone else and it will be tight for many teams.

 “I don’t think there’s a good time to play any Premier League team because you don’t know when they’ll have a good spell or a bad spell. We’ve got six home games left and we need to make them count.”
He confirmed that Angelo Ogbonna is back in training and that the medics continue to monitor Ginge’s recovery and added: “We have played well prior to the Swansea game, but we didn’t there and we need to improve.”

    We have lost too many games that we should have won or at least drawn . Our credibility has suffered and it shows every time certain pundits open Thier mouths . How we would love to shut some of them up ,,, but a lot .
    Enjoy Miami and come back fit and ready and willing for the fight ,,, that’s all we ask

    This reportage of Mr Moyes’ description of the team’s edgy situation is underwhelming, facile even. Mr Moyes failed to strengthen the central defensive and striking positions, and has not brought pace into the side. It doesn’t require a FIFA coaching license to work that out. Achieving 40 points in all the messy circumstances will be a miracle. That said, Mr Moyes’ reported comments seem trivial when we consider how the soul of this club is being shredded by warring factions. Tragic.

    9 points from the home games versus Burnley,Southampton and Stoke.Cannot afford to draw any of these home bankers.Quite simple really,But its West Ham and if we do not win tomorrow it throws a huge spanner into our survival plans.All guns blazing and put them to the sword tomorrow.
