2025/26 David Moyes

I like how you seem to disregard the possibility that our Davey has not learned anything from the 12 year journey he has been on since crashing out after delivering fair results (today's managers at utd are literally doing worse than him), following after the world's best manager, for the world's dumbest and most impatient fanbase.

Moyes is a much much better manager today than he was when he left us. It definetly shows. Especially with man management and media handling stuff. Tactically very able. Who could we get that would be an improvement upon him right now?

What managers can say they have been successful at Utd since fergie left.
Also how many of those managers declined since leaving Utd.

Utd is a stupid case to knock moyes with, even he went downhill after Utd before finding himself again

They are a deathtrap for managers.

It was said when he was here first time round if he had just had the backing he could have taken us further. He moved to Man Ure, had the players & the backing.

His ceiling is what it is, he is great for where we are & is doing a very decent job but he isn’t the elite manager for the elite stadium.

we aren’t elite enough for a “elite manager”

Don’t disagree with this at all & as I said Moyes is doing a good job for where we. I haven’t seen any evidence his ceiling has changed in any way significantly from the last time he was here.

He always did best when he had less options squad wise, always did well at rehabilitating out of favour players, always went for experience over youth, always bottled games against the top 4 etc etc.

Man U away was a step in the right direction & how he approaches Chelsea & Arsenal may demonstrate that his mindset has indeed changed and that he can set up & convey this to the team. His comments after Newcastle indicated otherwise.

Will be very happy to be proved wrong.

His ceiling has never really been determined. At Everton he was always a few players short of making a serious top four push and he didn’t get long enough at Manchester United. The fact he had set up the Toni Kroos transfer suggests he knew what needed to be done but Woodward didn’t hold his nerve.

He really does get the best out of a squad when it's down to it's bare bones. His issues seem to be when he has options.

I really hope he doesn't look at moving KDH in a more advanced role, he's been absolutely fantastic driving forward with the ball from a deeper position and still finding those spaces for opportunities to score.

I've got a feeling Gueye will be straight back in against Chelsea and Alcaraz dropped in favour of KDH in that advanced position.

When we played Fulham at home we lined up in a 433 and KDH was excellent as a left sided 8. We also set up like that from the start away at United.

We don't need to play with a number 10, in fact we are probably at our best when we don't.

KDH's best form historically has been in that exact role.

I think that both systems are valid depending on opposition and availability. We are short on numbers at the moment so that was probably the best system and personnel we could have played yesterday. I thought Charly played well yesterday. Dewsbury Hall was my Mom he is ina great run of form at the minute.
