Dalziel Kane Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Didn't Norwich finish higher than that even. Strange really, that for someone who did so well over there, he departed, and instead of the team going on a decline, and losing someone so important to them, they brought in Hughton, and have done even better. Once again and while it's still fresh in the mind, last weekends result in East London was a most pleasing result and something to be proud of and we continue our recent impressive results against that opposition.

Nevermind, they finished 12th, could've been 10th had their goal difference been better than Swansea and WBA... 11 points clear of relegation as well. That's about as good of a season as a promoted side can hope for, especially one that didn't spend tens of millions of pounds on established Premier League players, or even well-known and proven players from foreign leagues. But I hope that Moyes continues to realize that he shouldn't put out the same 11 every week, and that it should vary depending on form and the opposition team.

Bailey Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 i just want to congratulate David Moyes for his brave decision to pick his team for WestHam on tactical grounds and not on historical form - i firmly beleive in the principle of horses for courses - there is no such thing as a best team for all games - it all depends who you are facing - his selection was very unpopular but in the end very successfull!! What more do we want ? He didnt play horses for courses though? We basically played like West Ham. There was plenty of space available for our trickier players to make things happen and when we actually passed the ball with some intent we created chances. When we decided to lump the ball forward we looked very average and 95% of the time West Ham dealt with it a lot easier than we dealt with them. There is one thing Moyes definitely doesnt do & that is picking a team & tactics to exploit the opposition. The odd minor tweak here and there (like Rodwell on Silva) but generally its one size fits all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Obviously for those outside of the UK who weren't able to watch highlights the other night on the BBC ? But had a look at the link - and there's nothing there ? No registration needed either apparently. Too late to figure things out etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 No I don't need to see it again, I was merely enquiring why it wouldn't appear. But it seems I don't have flash player to view it. That's a good enough reason, and never had any want to install it either really. Too late for me so Goodnight etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
