Moyes as a defence couch or assistant and trophies would come.
Now I may be overly optimistic here, but I think RM is potentially on track for something special here. Maybe not HK special, but I'm not sure that could be done again in the current footballing climate with the vast difference in finances. He is certainly building for the future.
Look at our side today, we had 4 current England internationals (in a team of 10/11 full internationals) playing. A central spine with 3 of the highest rated youngsters in European football with another one on the bench. We have a great blend of experienced players with youngsters and a manager not scared of throwing youth into the mix.
Yes we may not be spending as much cash as the rest, but it could be argued we spend it better and wiser. It's not about what you spend it is how you spend it and we don't fail too often.
I've had a couple of beers by the way!!!

Martinez has kept Coleman, Barkley, McCarthy, Mirallas, Garbutt and (for now) stones at the club when the media have been happy to sell them and assume they're off. By doing so he's told his players that he values them and believes they can hit their best form again they will hopefully reward him. Today he came with a plan and it worked perfectly. Hopefully we can do the same next week with City

I was going to start one up seeing as I started it all last season, but I quite like being able to log into this place.

Sorry not for me at this moment in time, I think he has great potential and can become that holding player but needs time.
I will say though we have great young players knocking at the first team door, which we haven't had for many a year.

But we've not got a small squad Dan, in fact quite the opposite.
Plus it's clear we'll be adding another 3 players before the window closes.
