Sometimes your time has run out.. we saw it with the likes of Harry Redknapp (post Spurs), Keegan, probably with Howard Kendall by the mid 90s - maybe even Mourinho and Moyes..

Time has run out? He should be at his peak right now if any good.
The karma bus has hit him head on I am afraid....

I mean the point where they are no longer any good - obviously if its Brendan that would be pure theory since he never reached the good level.

When was Moyes "any good"?

When was Moyes "any good"?

When he took us from relegation candidates to European regulars?

Well he got something of a tune out of us.. and spent our money well. Whereas - given a fortune at United he bought and managed poorly.

He has the accent too.

Ok. Fair enough. He did that. But for me a good Manager should be entering his peak at hs age. Not looking like scrambling for any job next week.

I think he needs to accept he is a Sam Allardyce/Tony Pulis type manager in the sense that they are at their best at stabilising a struggling club, but they don't have the ability to challenge for honours.

He bought Felli and Juan Mata. Hardly buying poorly is it?

It is when you over pay for one and stick the other out on the wing
