Moyes Potential Replacement

[runlikehell]

Mackay's wiki reads well:

*Hauled Watford to midtable safety.
*Manager of the month early in his Cardiff career.
*Lead them to their first League cup final appearance, which they only lost on penalties to Liverpool.
*Play-offs in his first season with the Bluebirds.
*Turned down Norwich after Lambert left.
*Set a club record of 10 consecutive home wins.
*Won the Championship. Cardiff's first title in 20 years.
*Almost a 47% win rate with his current club.

Looking at his transfers, he's managed a net spend of about £11m but he's traded a lot of players and been shopping in the bargain bin. He's brought in Liam Lawrence, Kenny Miller, Robert Earnshaw, Fraizer Campbell, Nicky Maynard, Craig Bellamy and Heidar Helguson as well as plenty of dross.

Hudson and Whittingham made the Championship Team of the Year.

Cardiff won the league by 8 points but perhaps the standard wasn't that high. Very much like Everton they shared the goals around: Whiitingham 8, Helguson 8, Gunnarsson 8, Campbell 7, Noone 7.

It's not the glamour appointment that some people were hoping for, but neither was Moyes. I'd be open to giving him a go.

Me too, if we were someone like Norwich or Stoke looking for stability to stay in the Premier League.

Lads. You do know Bill has asked Moyes don't you? You know we are all going to be dissappointed and end up with Malky Mackay, don't you?

Was it in the papers? Must be true.

Last I checked, no.

We're an established top 6-7 Premier League club, Malky bloody Mackay has done nothing yet to warrant such a job.

There are better options out there for crying out loud.

Moyes was at Preston...

You could argue that he's had more success in 2 years at Cardiff than Moyes had in 11 years at Everton. And his top signings have been:

Maynard £2.7m
Kim £2.6m
Velikonja £1.7m
Noone £1.1m
Mutch £1.1m

Compared to £3m for John Stones. He's worth having on the short list, I think.

Stones didn't cost £3m. They'll only get that much if he makes about six thousand appearances for us.

Moyes's advice should now be deemed the advice of a foe. This guy will not want someone at the helm who is
capable of outshining him. He is no longer to be trusted.

Have to be careful about arrogance as well. Good managers need and tend to have some arrogance about them, but if you have too much of it and it isn't really warranted then it will create a disaster, the players won't play for you and the fans won't like you.

I can remember Mike Walker being described as arrogant, and it didn't go down very well at Everton.
