CONFIRMED: Moyes Leaving - All Reaction Here

Personally I reckon your looking at about 30/40 teams outside of England that are even worth considering, of which several are the likes of AC Milan, Barca, Real, Juve, Inter, Porto etc.. we're not getting their managers so we are looking at the best of the rest or English proven, a massive risk either way, only one way we get someone who knows the English game and can speak the language. I honestly think the search radius for Moyes replacement is far smaller than every team in the world, just because there are other teams, doesn't necessarily mean other realistic options.. If my local team had a decent run of results, does that mean our manager should be added to the list of potential Moyes replacements? He plays 2 up front as well.
I would say Championship team or decent European manager, cross fingers and hope he can do nearly as good a job as Moyes.
I also think anyone expecting a new manager to equal the next step in our evolution are going to be sorely dissapointed.

Probably right.

My instincts would be to look at a manager who is used to facing down vast budget differences (i.e someone who's managed in spain or germany with a lesser team). Why I keep suggesting werder bremen and valencia managers, that sort of thing.
 
I'd love to be proved wrong, but I don't really believe we will win anything under Moyes. For whatever reason, the team don't seem to be able to put in a winning performance when it really counts.

I couldn't give a toss about 5th, 6th, 7th place. It means nothing compared to winning something. Plenty of 'lesser' teams have managed to achieve this during Moyes' tenure.

Those of you placing such importance on maintaining our league position, I don't understand why. Obviously, there'll be some who know the answer, but I bet most evertonians couldn't tell you what our league position was in 1995.

15th.

League winners since Moyes - Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City
FA Cup- As above plus Liverpool and Portsmouth (who played 1 Premier league team in their run)
League Cup - Middlesbrough, Tottenham and Birmingham and probably Swansea

So in the decade Moyes has been in charge the only "lesser" teams to have won something are Portsmouth (currently in League 1 and bust), Birmingham (currently in championship and bust) and Middlesbrough (currently in Championship). Hardly "plenty"
 
And I didn't care one bit. Did you?

Actually yes.

It wasnt nice needing points in May to stay up.

In the 80s our average League postion was 2nd.
In the 90s our average League postion was 15th.
Now our average League postion is around 6th.

If we finished 15th for 10 Years we would lose around £90m.

£2m of which would be offset by winning the FA Cup.

YAY

You seem to have mistaken me for a board member or an accountant.

I'm a fan.

You seem to have missed out Liverpool and Tottenham.

Its a bit gash that the 5th best team haven't managed to win a trophy in something like 25 attempts in the cups. And only 1 final.

Thats poor compared to the acheivement in the league.
