Moyes to Sunderland

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Can't help but want him to do well.

NEA.

Watching Villa right now makes me shudder

That would have been us 10 years ago if Moyes hadn't come along

We owe him a debt of gratitude for righting the ship when he did, if nothing else

He near had United in the Championship.

He oversaw the greatest fall from grace in European club history. It took a corruption scandal to reduce Juventus to also ran status; it took the appointment of David Moyes to do the same to Man Utd.

I did warn people.

Didn't I @davek ?

You did mate. Villa lived the dream for a season. Unfortunately for them Lerner put O'Neill in charge of £100M+ and that wasn't a very smart move.

Bit irrelevant all that though isn't it. He was talking Moyes at Everton, 10 years ago.

Didn't they finish 7th?

...it's why he's now ploughing his trade at that backwater club. That place is a destination for managers down on their luck.

Yes. The trend was one more season and they'd crash out of the PL with Moyes in 'command'.

In Man Utd history books they'll leave the pages for season 2013/14 blank with a black border to them.

Yes.

Like there was literally no other manager in the world could have avoided relegation with a club which holds the distinction of playing more seasons in the top flight of their country than any other club in the world.

Someone should tell Koeman that.

Wouldn't have been the first time they were relegated. I remember the last time it happened. Best, Charlton et al left the sinking ship like rats. It was interesting to watch.......

Signed Steven Pienaar today.

 

[Nil Satis Niasse Optimum]

Signed Steven Pienaar today.

Hahaha was so obv!

Watch Osman and Hibbert end up there. Brilliant.

 

[We've got Samuel Eto'o]

Hmm how to react if the miracle happened and Hibbo finally scored at Goodison now under Moyes!? That must be 5,000/1..

 

[when i score we riot]

So, how many times has Moyes now signed Pienaar? This must be like, the fourth time.
