Just imagine if Moyes had had no association with this club would fans be happy to take a manager who...

Took United backwards rapidly and lasted just 10 months.

Took Real Sociedad backwards and again lasted less than a year. (might have been better had he been arsed to learn the lingo)

Then took Sunderland down plus was dumped by West Ham after just 6 months then spent nearly 18 months on the dole.

Blues would be going mad at such an uninspiring appointment.

No manager in the world would have succeeded at United when he took over. None.

Maybe. Maybe not.

But a quality manager wouldn't have taken the (then) current Champions down to seventh that's for sure. He was way out of his depth down the Lancs and was a huge failure there.
 
He's in that group of managers along with guys like Mourinho, Wenger, and Mancini that I don't think have adapted enough to be successful at the highest levels of club football anymore. The game has been dominated in recent years by high intensity sides who can effectively press and dominate the opposition by giving them no time on the ball and being able to keep it themselves. None of those guys do that and as a result they've all slowly faded away.
