Gab Marcotti; moyes weakness was his transfer dealings got pushed around lost players

[blueblue]

David Moyes will have a very different set of challenges at Utd. The problems he had at Everton will not be problems at Utd. However, at Utd he will have problems he didn't have at Everton like rotating a big squad of egotistical millionaires.

The point to be taken from Marcottis piece is that David Moyes may be a "ditherer", a term we have heard before.

He has a point to some extent, but Moyes biggest weaknesses were far more obvious than missed transfers

 

[Bluescouse1]

moyes failings is that he is a defensive minded manager who cant get his players or himself to not bottle it against teams they should be beating in ridiculously important stages of the season/round of cups.

spot on mate a bottler

Thats why he's just got the biggest job in World Football.

And like Man united never get things wrong do they. they were trying to sell the club early on in Fergies reign,
from the early 70 were they went down up to the early 90s they were a come and go team, the odd cup final every few years.
just because Fergie was a great manager dontmake him right about his succesor

[Billy Dean]

Thats why he's just got the biggest job in World Football.

Anyone who says Moyes is anything less than stellar in the transfer market loses all credibility immediately.

Everyone is suddenly an expert on Moyes, now that he is the new manager of the greatest ever football club that has ever existed in the history of great football. Ever.

Spot on.

It will also be very interesting how his strikeforce plays, given that was a massive weakness at us too. The phrase 'ruins strikers' has been uttered by many.

He wasn't called "dithering dave" for nothing, I'm afraid another journo talking shte as though knowledgeable - Moyes faults were more about attitude than anything, choker of the highest order acceptable to this generation of evertonians but won't be to Uniteds children.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

He eventually went for only 11m. Fcuking Sporting thought we were idiots.

And they sold him to their major rivals.

 

[MartSlinger]

Anyone know how much they accepted from Spurs for him?
