If Moyes had experience of managing a club the size of United or a history of winning trophies I'd be more inclined to agree. Had he got us to finals but United lost, or managed a decent top 4 position then I'd say he should be given more time and a good transfer budget to show what he could do.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

I did go to the Oldham v Coventry game yesterday, it made me realise that even after this seasons performances my United season ticket is still well worth paying for, it was a dire match.:rolleyes:

Biggest single mistake made by Moyes was to clear out the coaching staff and radically alter training methods.

It always amuses me when people make that sort of comparison - SAF joined a much different club in 1986 than Moyes in 2013, plus SAF had a history of success.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Yep, said this time and time again, this isn't the 80's anymore, you simply cannot afford to give managers the time Ferguson did especially given you've just taken over what now is a footballing powerhouse.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Do you reckon Moyes said its still mathematically possible for Man Utd to get top 4 :LOL:

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Nobody said SAF never got it wrong but another thing I've said all along is Moyes was his final mistake.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

He is still director Russ. Plenty of time to screw something else.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

The question is how much of a say will he have in the choosing of their next manager.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

True but being a director (non-executive I believe) means any decision/suggestion he now makes has to be ok'd by the rest of the board.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Rumour is that Moyes is going to stand for UKIP.;)


He knows how to get out of Europe. :)

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Such a shame that they couldn't give him a chance to build a team. On the other hand, Stevenage couldn't be bothered to change their manager all season and look where it got them. Hope he is sacked in the next few weeks, the muppet.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window

You did say when AVB was sacked that you wanted Sherwood Arthur.

For MU to lose the experiences of both SAF and David Gill at the same time smacks of incompetence by the hierarchy of MU.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Sherwood was fine when he started BUT, he has fallen short of a good qaulity manager.

I remember Keith Burkenshaw, Sherwood is nothing like him and he came up through the ranks at Tottenham.

I would like a manager at Tottenham that would put the sparkle back into the side.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

Jurgen Klinsmann after the WC ?

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

So let me get this right, you wanted him to replace AVB as he had the potential to be a good manager and was for a few games but because he hasnt had some good results for a few games you dont want him? I cant keep up, i just cant keep up.

I know most wanted us to get battered, and I'm sorry we let you down. Not the most exciting match, but hey ho. You should have seen us in the late 70's and the early and late 80's. I don't have a problem with how we set up tonight. Of course I'd love us to play open and free flowing football all the time, but I've seen Atletico dominate and batter better teams than us this season. I'll take a boring nil nil every time in a 1st leg away semi like this.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
 

I cannot abide this negative attitude of parking everyone bar a player who couldn't see a target 2 inches from his face in the penalty area. I don't care what anyone says, tactics like that have no place in European football.

I would be praying tonight if I was a United fan that the Glazers don't try and buy him out of his contract as I reckon after just 10 matches the fans would be begging to have Moyes back in charge.

Depends on injuries now. Cech's dislocated his shoulder so that's his season over. Don't know how bad Terry is, but Ivanovic and Matic are back so we'll have to wait and see. I don't know if Hazard will be risked either, that's if he's fit. I thought Cole did well tonight as well. Considering he's not played since the end of January. Mikel being banned for the 2nd leg is a bonus as well :Yes:

Oh I know that but it wouldn't be the first time an Old Trafford failure went on to do better elsewhere. Remember the original 'donkey', Diego Forlan? Couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo (although gave us a good result once against the scousers) but then couldn't stop scoring for Villarreal and A Madrid.
