David Moyes - How Long Left?

He'll be gone by Christmas unless things improve next season. A part of me though thinks that due to Fergie's lingering influence he'll want his chosen one to be in the job for as long as possible.

Not a fan of ManU whatsoever, but I actually feel sorry for Moyes who comes across as honest and not arrogant, unlike his predecessor.

Moyes has been handed a stack of players not good enough for a squad that's meant to be competing in the higher echelons of European and PL football. Others may disagree, but to me players like Evans, Fellaini (I know Moyes brought him in), Smalling, Carrick, Nani, Rafael, Young, Cleverly, Anderson - would get no where near the first 11 of ManC, Chelsea, Barca, Real, Juve, Bayern and so on.

It seems only fair that Moyes should be allowed a couple more transfer windows to get them and others out, and spend mega.

I hope he sticks it out....he could get them into The Ryman League by 2020.

To join Portsmouth who will have been there several seasons already.

It's would be the Northern Premier for that location!

Well, I really didn't get my atlas out when I posted......it was meant as a joke. I somehow doubt it will come to that, do you ?

the job was always "the poison challis" handed to him by Fergie.
older players, and players that really are not up to the mark(personally I would never have one of the present team at the Albion, apart from the one we presently have who should be playing instead of some that are in the MU team now) it shows me what I always knew that Fergie ruled by fear, and that some of the players revered him like a God.
Moyes ruined himself going to MU and should have stayed at Everton, it might have been better had the MU management hired one of the so called Mu stalwarts(player) and then they could all have slipped into oblivion together.



and this is an afterthought maybe when they reached to lower leagues Roy Keene could take over and build them into a good club again

They are returning to the laughing stock that they were in the 1970's.

if they don't get top 4 next season, he's gone

It does tend to show how good a manager SAF was. I didn't like him much but you have to admire what he achieved and also what he got out of the players not performing for Moyes.

It's funnier with him in charge. United have dominated for too long. This is the first season in a long time that the prem is interesting.

Quite agree, a bit of a bully. But I can't deny him his achievements. I bet he is lapping all this up, makes him look even better. When in probability he was just smart enough to see there wasn't the ingredients of a top four team at his disposal.

Moyes keeps putting abrave face on it in interviews - but he is like a man on the ropes.

any man with self respect would have resigned by now.

Top players want Champion's League football though

So do Nike!

I don't remember them being a laughing stock in the 70s having been the first British team to win the European cup.

I know football fans love to laugh at the armchair plastics but what have Brighton achieved? Isn't 13th in the 1st division our highest ever finish? I like the fact that the Premier League is more open now, but laughing at other's 'misfortunes' seems a bit pathetic to me.

They had the biggest crowds on no success, things are different now

Van persil going will stop any decent midfielders signing up...slippery slope

Are you sure about that? I thought it was Celtic, but you go ahead and re write history for what I assume is your second team
