As Everton prepares to face Liverpool in the highly anticipated Merseyside derby, manager David Moyes has been making headlines with his comments about the opposition.
In a recent press conference, Moyes seemed to be playing mind games with Liverpool, suggesting that they are not as strong as they seem. However, some fans have called out Moyes for his comments, accusing him of trying to “gas” Liverpool up.
“Moyes always does this and then they win 2-0,” one fan tweeted. “Why is he trying to gas Liverpool up like they aren’t going to thrash us?”
Another fan pointed out that Moyes had previously praised Liverpool’s Virgil Van Dijk, but now seems to be downplaying the team’s abilities. “I thought he only rated Van Dijk,” the fan tweeted. “Interesting comment.”
Meanwhile, it’s been revealed that one Everton player has been causing Moyes headaches in the lead-up to the derby. According to sources, midfielder Andre Gomes has been struggling with his form and fitness, leaving Moyes to tear his hair out.
Gomes has been a key player for Everton in the past, but his recent performances have been underwhelming. With the derby just around the corner, Moyes will be hoping that Gomes can turn his form around and make a significant impact on the pitch.
As the tension builds ahead of the Merseyside derby, one thing is certain: Moyes and his team will be giving it their all to come out on top against their bitter rivals.
