2024/25 David Moyes


Relegation looms with Ol´David in charge.
It’s unlikely, tho it largely depends on the players we bring in really. Need the owners to spend some. It is only football so I don’t buy into the panic mindset and all that.. but I’d certainly like more players in of quality to improve what we have.

I think Moyes will have us mid table again this year. Full preseason etc

The least we should expect…
 

A bit harsh considering how many other managers have totally bombed there. Why were mata and fellaini the 2 best players at united for the next few years/managers?

Players always love to blame the manager for their failings.

It was always going to be difficult following Alex Ferguson into Man United, let's be honest, it was a poison chalice, how Ferguson won the league with that team, the team he left was beyond me. Moyes perhaps wasn't the big name manager the players wanted or deserved and for me he was never given the time to manage United, the way Ferguson was.
 

Rings true.

Moyes is not a coach in the sense he is a deep thinker about football. His selling point for United was that he'd be a continuation of the disciplinarian approach that Ferguson won with: imposing discipline on very good / great players brought success. But Moyes didn't have the credibility to carry that on from Ferguson.

It had to be a new way of playing and winning that he adopted to make it there, and Moyes didn't have that to offer.

Remember he was a lot younger then.

More mature now...

Have you got a theory as to why van Gaal failed, too? Despite the credibility he has.
 
Let's have it right about Moyes: he's a very decent PL standard manager now, but he has many limitations and they were cruelly exposed along the way in most of the clubs he joined when he left us.
