He won’t get us back to anywhere near where we were . It’s a different time to 20/15 yrs ago. Then 4 or 5 teams spent money now it’s 7/8 spend big money and they other 12 can spend good money every summer. Moyes’s negative style will always be his downfall. TFG won’t give him a new deal, no chance he wasn’t the man they wanted originallyI think Moyes is like a warm comfort blanket for them and us mate. He will eventually get us back to where we are when he left, the longer he stays. I personally won’t be surprised if he signs a new contract in the summer.
I think the task of replacing him is huge, given the model we’ve put in place and autonomy/authoirty we’ve given him.
I think it’s a huge and difficult decision and I think here is a tough gig - but I’d like us to be a bit braver - then who is the vouge Martinez pick in the PL at a lesser club at the time. Or go the opposite direction of the sage old safe hands or an Ancelotti, Allardyce or Dyche.
We also need coherence in continuity - by that I mean not jumping from style and philosophey from manager to manager change for change sake in term of identity. I.E Moyes - Martinez- Koeman etc.
It’s a huge decision and we approach it is key - we should have a shortlist now!
