Moyes Watch @ Real Sociedad

Not really, when you factor in he was bought for 2m, it basically means he cost us a total price of 1m over his 2 spells at the club.
? Bought for £2M and £4.5M (£6.5M), sold for £3M

it cost us £3.5 to buy him twice, but I get you're point on relative cheapness. He's cost us way more than that on wages while he's been Injured.
 
Didn't at Everton, turned us round in 9 games. These guys don't care about breaking the glass ceiling, they want a manager to stave off relegation this season and put the foundations in place so that it never happens again. If you can do it on a negative spend and not moan about it as well then they're even happier. Moyes gets another ten year job at a fan base who will take that long to realise they want something a bit more and the owner gets a decade of PL money.

They would much rather this to constantly hiring and firing expensive short term managers who whinge that the chequebook hasn't come out (Advocaat). If Moyes leaves Sociedad a lot of the bottom ten will be queueing round the block for him. Sunderland, Watford, Newcastle (when Schteve messes it up) would all be interested and so will other teams if the likes of Bilic, Hughes or Ranieri suddenly hit relegation form.

He did with Everton what Poyet etc did at Sunderland: staved off relegation. He then got enough time at Everton to see the job through second season. He wont get that there. He'd have to get it right straight off. No chance he'd do that up there because they're a wild west club players and fans wise. No patience for building. No patience these days for building anywhere for that matter.
 
I bet no ex Everton or Sociedad players would want to follow Moyes to another club. They all hate him.

Yobo, Pienaar (3 times), Arteta, Donovan, Fellaini and Howard all signed permanent contracts with Moyes having worked for him before - at another club or on loan

Players have had options to move away and decided to stay - And Rooney also had an opportunity to move away from him a second time and didn't want to

Sunderland: David Moyes amongst managers under consideration
By Simon Stone
BBC Sport
Sunderland are considering Real Sociedad manager David Moyes as they look for Dick Advocaat's successor but he is not near the top of their list.


lol

They should be going down on bended knee to get him. He'd be the best thing to happen to that club since Peter Reid and would guarantee establishing them as a solid mid-table club.

 
Off on a tangent,but the BBC Ferguson Documentary gives some interesting info.
"I don't think we made a mistake at all. I think we chose a good football man," Ferguson says. "Unfortunately it didn't work for David.
"Jose Mourinho was going back to Chelsea, Carlo Ancelotti was going to Real Madrid, Jurgen Klopp had signed a contract with Dortmund, Louis van Gaal was staying with Holland for the World Cup."

Seems the wasn't "the chosen one" more like 5th choice.

The biggest mistake Man Utd made for a half a century. Moyes was hopelessly in over his head.
