Instead of spending the summer working on how to improve his Everton side that is set to finish the season without a win in the entirety of April and May, David Moyes will be supplementing his generous Everton pay packet by doing World Cup punditry for TalkSport.
The Everton manager is joining a squad that includes Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler, former England international Kyle Walker, Emmanuel Petit who was a World Cup winner in 1998, former Netherlands and Chelsea striker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, and British rapper and Tottenham fan AJ Tracey.
The action begins in North America on 11 June when Mexico take on South Africa and ends in New York for the final on 19 July.
Scotland begin their campaign against Haiti on 14 June, then play Morocco on 19 June — both in Boston — and Brazil in Miami on 24 June.
England, meanwhile, start on 17 June against Croatia in Dallas, then face Ghana in Boston on 23 June and go to New York to play Panama on 27 June.

Ha ha, you could not make this up… “Let me tell you where Harry Kane is going wrong… he’s scoring too many goals and not tracking back enough.”

Keep going, Ian, he might leave you a tenner in his will.

Maybe he knows he’s getting moved on and isn’t arsed about being over there.

Delighted he’ll have a job on TalkSport for the World Cup, and hopefully his contract at Everton will be terminated by then.

He will never lead us anywhere except for a mediocre path. Good enough to keep us up, but nothing more.

At least he will be watching teams playing football and he may — even with his vast experience — learn something!

There’s the headline – Davey Viagra Moyes – he can keep you up but you’re on your own, when it comes to scoring.

My expectation is that every major league manager will be going to the biggest trade fair in football.
And if I had the money and time, I couldn’t think of anything better.

It’s not the 1970’s when Brian Clough would show up at your house with £500 and a Ford Cortina as a sweetener.
I’m not defending Moyes here, but the world and the game has moved on, surely?

We really have all seen and had enough of Moyes!

Moyes will just tell our ace recruitment team to sign up Soucek, Stones and Grealish and renew Mykolenko and then he can go on his jolly and leave them to it.

Looks like the Shite are going to land Iraola once Slot gets the shepherds crook.

No chance of a big club getting him mate.
He’s a flash in the pan,flavour of the month,way too young,inexperienced manager

TalkSport get a well-respected voice in the game with decades of experience, and punditry during a summer tournament hardly stops him planning for next season.
If anything, being around top international coaches, players and media discussions can give him fresh perspective, plus Everton probably won’t be too far into pre-season. The Premier League season starts around 23 August this year, so plenty of time.
Besides, hearing sensible analysis on TalkSport might make a nice change for once.

Hard to disagree with any of that.

The World Cup is a shop window. How about headline reading Everton manager goes to look at the world’s best players with a view to unearthing a bargain or two, and gets paid by someone else other than this club to do it?

Nice work if you can get it… and he has.

Our chap will be out on the ale with Ally McCoist every night when he should be lining up all these deals we need done.

We’re not getting someone else to pay his wages for this period. That might be more appealing.

Perspective?
He will be advising the coaches on how to manage a team competing in the World Cup

Any outstanding attacking talents will be marked as not suitable for Everton, no Premier League experience and not the requisite amount of defensive duties carried out. Any player under 6 foot has to be discarded.
Attacking full backs? Absolutely not for Mr Moyes. Creative midfield players? Don’t put in the required Moyes graft. Players under the age of 26, not enough experience etc, etc.

He’ll probably put his CV about to land a gig managing a national team in a couple of years when he finishes with us.

Then there’s John Stones, don’t forget. We could run out to the Dad’s Army theme tune instead of Z-Cars. Season 26-27 Bring it on!!!! In the Moyesiah we trust.

Delap ? God help us is there any Evertonians that would prefer signing him before Richy bearing in mind Richy is more of a footballer would score more goals and be cheaper ?
Posted

A Chelsea supporting mate considers Delap is reasonable at holding up the ball, more of an old-school No 9, a battering ram type.
I feel we need versatility.
Don’t ask me who.
Richarlison would be ok.

Ian #25, Brendan #26.
“… being around top international coaches, players and media discussions can give him fresh perspective… “
Is this a joke? We’re talking about David Moyes here!!! He’ll never change his pig-headed stubbornness – more so now he’s at retirement age.
Let’s hope TalkSport are conned by the Scot, and offer him a permanent job talking shite “Everton are not ready for Europe”.
I’ve said it many times, we’ll get nowhere with mediocre Moyes, and I never want to see him near Everton FC again. He is destroying our club.

Not only that, but TalkSport are flying their pundits over to America, so if he stays out there the whole time, or even 3-4 weeks, that is a direct impact on our pre-season. A really bad one.
