Readers of EvertonNews have given their verdict through Talking Points, and supporters vented their frustration at Moyes’ team news.
If you could ask David Moyes one thing following the Brentford defeat, what would it be? 🤔
One comment read: “I think personally if he loses these next two homes games, I think he will be gone sooner than later. Why change a winning team that beat Forest away… that’s what I can’t understand.”
A second reader wrote: “Putting O’Brien back at right-back after heading just about every Forest cross away on Tuesday looks like a horrific decision!”
When asked what question they would ask Moyes, a third comment read: “Why did you change the back four?”
A fourth comment read: “Should have only been 1 change – Grealish for McNeil – that should have been it.”
Finally, one reader added: “One of our best defensive performances away to Forest, then Moyes makes two changes to the back four (including playing a player out of position)! Poor performance, poor management!”
