Moyes sacked by United

[Jags..class]

He pushes his hand out the way

He might not have realized who it was, his mind would have been focused on Martinez and also worrying about the home fans.

in a way we need to thank united. I seriously think moyes would have been here another 5-10 years if they hadn't taken him away.

I personally think Moyes should have been given one further season to prove himself at United. The end of this season was always going to be the crunch window with many of his first team players moving on; Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra, Giggs, Anderson, possibly also Buttner, Nani, Young, Welbeck and Cleverley too. That's 10 players, and it would have represented a chance to totally re-vamp the squad and put his mark on it. Obviously this season has been a disaster, but those players there aren't good enough to challenge for the top four; getting rid this summer and starting again would have helped United set out on their aim which was to give Moyes five further years and build his own squad.

Not arsed that he's been sacked, and don't really feel much sympathy for him after the way he acted upon leaving us, but still think he should have got another season after this one.

Money talks though, especially for the Glazier family.

Given another season to do what?

He spent 70m on the current league champions and manged to not only have them not challenge for the title but drop out of the top 6 ffs

A team that contains Mata/Kagawa/Nani/Young/Valencia/Rooney/RVP/Hernandez/Welbeck has scored less goals than us this season and managed to lose just two games less than Stoke City

The man was so far out of his depth its frighting, He looked lost and void of ideas from his constant chopping and changing of his midfield and defense to his tactical genius against Fulham which consisted of crossing the ball a grand total of 81 times in a match

He had turned one of the biggest sides in the country into a laughing stock and the Glazers simply had no option but to let him go, Beaten by City,Liverpool and Everton home and away and still failing to win away at a top 4 side

I feel a bit sorry for him stuck inside OT now, refusing to leave the building until he gets massive compensation for his 8 months in charge - a job that he didn't even apply for, but rather forced to take on with saf pointing a gun at his head. An egotistical, unintelligent man, the last bitter hours of employment at a top level club he will ever know being played out in the full glare of the worlds press.

pmsl at the thought of him 'stuck inside OT'

I suppose you are probably right mate. When you put it that way. I guess I just wanted him to get them relegated, it'd only have taken two years at the rate he was going.

I've been critical of Moyes for the past 3 years cos his lack of vision, lack of tactics and predictable style of football which held us back once we were ready to make a jump up.
However, what happened to him at Man Utd is utterly disgraceful. Basically what you're saying is that Fergie even after managing for 26 years had no clue what he saw in Moyes. Its disrespect to the old man who made Utd what they are today. Moyes did have an effect in Utd cos he took his predictable style and lack of tactical awareness to Utd. But why give him a 6 year deal if you can't even give him a whole year?

Also I am shocked by the amount of stick our fellow blues give him. Yes its fine to slack him off for some of his awful statements and derisory bids but he's not deserving of some of the abuse he gets. Never forget what he did for us in those 11 years and only cos of that Martinez has been able to make us jump higher.

All the best in your future endeavours David Moyes. I still think it was best you left Everton but I'll always respect and admire you.

 

[Minimeister]

He had found his level with us and now it's going to take him a long time to get back up there.

I'm intrigued to see what the next manager does because that squad is awful bar the front players and really needs a lot of work doing to it.

Complete catastrophe for Moyes, his big chance and he couldn't have failed more spectacularly. I think the problem is that he's failed to adapt to the times and reinvent himself, a lot of his methods and ideas on the game look outdated now when compared with the likes of Martinez and Rodgers.

The best thing he can do now is take a year out and try to address that, if I were him I wouldn't see the point in taking a job like Newcastle. If he feels the same then his options really are limited, chances of a Bundesliga side taking a punt on him are slim.

Sorry, Why is it a disgrace? Because it makes Ferguson look daft for selecting him or theat they gave him a 6 year contract?

A side that won the league less than 12 months ago?

Honestly just wait until next season when a top manager is there

Look at their defence mate. They've been shocking. Fergie filled the squad with players like Smalling, Jones and Cleverley who are not United class. I don't know how they won the league but just shows you what a couple of world class players up top can do. Just look at Liberpewl!

 

[billycopper]

In some ways he hasn't been helped. Woodward must at least share the blame for their failings in the transfer market. Would it have changed things too much if they had signed Herrera, Fabregas and Baines though?

Herrera is only 24 and would take time to adjust to the Premier League. I can't say I've seen him play but I imagine they wanted him to partner Carrick. I can't see how he would have made £24m worth of difference.

I like Fabregas and he's contributed 8 goals and 12 assists to Barca already this season. Was the plan to reunite him with Van Persie and move Rooney out to the left? It could have worked, although Wayne has been their best player by a mile this season and I don't think he would have appreciated a more marginalised role.

I never really saw the logic in Moyes trying to replace their 32 year old captain with a 29 year old, as good as Baines is. United haven't been short of crosses into the box this season but they haven't had the players available to finish them off.

Davey did try and go about the job in the right way by being his own man and planning for the long-term. But if he'd retained the experience of Phelan and Muelensteen, bought players with this season alone in mind and played Januzaj as much as possible (rather than trying to protect him from burn out) he might have ridden out his difficult first season in charge.

Those players up top are still there

New manager will spend around 150m and they will be right back up there, Imagine Mata/Rooney/Kagawa/RVP playing well together

Lets make no mistake here, the players have got him the sack, they aint been trying, they wanted him out and have got their wish.

He's been going in there week in week out and he knows there's a group of them whispering behind his back, once it gets like that the writing is on the wall.

If he'd been given the chance to get rid of them and bring in his own players he would have been a success at Utd, but he was never going to get that time, the players running to Fergies home to tell tales tells you what a bunch of [Poor language removed] they were.

I'd never ever have him back here, but I'm not going to stand by and say it's all him, it's 25% him, 75% the players.

 

[Del]

I know what I will do, I will get the biggest job in the country bounce in there and get rid of all the coaching staff that had just helped the club win there 20th title and replace them with Steve Round,Phil Neville and Jimmy Lumsden

Great move
