You can see during the game where Moyes is continually discussing tactics with Nolan. I can only think during training, and team selections Nolan also has an input.

I am not saying that Moyes is not in charge but like any high decision making job its good to have the support of someone you can discuss ideas, and see things that may be seen with a different perspective.

If it is not Nolan something has suddenly changed for the better.
I was thinking the same thing. No coincidence.

No 👍
I think he has had an influence though big time.

We know what sort of character he was,when he was here has a captain.I can see a lot more effort being put in by all,not just the few.

No way of telling but the differences:


New boy improving on what we had before.

Haller getting his Mojo back.

Centre backs looking 5 years younger.

Antonio staying fit.

The liability Masuaku being offed at last.

Out of form Anderson/Lanzini had their final chances.


All more likely to be signs of Moyes settling in..you cant join a club mid season and pull a switch to "on"

And,any way we're a long way from turning any corner..just veered slightly away from what looked like careering to the edge of the precipice that leads to The Championship.

I think Nolan is prob the new Stuart Pearce this time around due to the scummy board not allowing Pearce back. Nolan won’t be scared to say it how it is and demand more on the training pitch and therefore this will prob be reflected on a match day.
COYI!!!

Fucking well hope not mate. I imagine Nolan has a lot more tactical nous than Pearce. Can't imagine Nolan sending on a goalkeeper as a substitute striker if the side needs a goal with 15 minutes or so to go. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Not sure about that Whiskeyman, I saw his Nott’s county team play and it was all route one Ala BFS style.
Maybe that is why we were much more direct last two games.
It’s not what you do it is the way that you do it.
