MOYES'S DISGUST

[Sozzled]

Moyes's problem is not that people are comparing him to Alex Ferguson.

Every Manc fan knows that Fergie was a freak, a one off, the likes of whom will never darken the door of their or anyone else's club ever again.

This bad patch could even have been spun to portray Moyes as a victim of circumstances....an ageing team needing rebuilt and an inexperienced CEO showing signs of green-ness in the transfer window.

Which is exactly what the OT spin doctors were doing back in September.....Woodward was left with the opprobrium after the last day fiasco.

No....the problem for Moyes is that he is being compared tp Roberto Martinez......whom has turned his hoofball merchants into a genuine contender for a CL place in a couple of months and outwitted him with tactical nous the other night, and not for the first team.

Moyes's whole reputation was based on the fact that he "worked miracles" on a shoestring and "taken plucky little Everton" as far as any under resourced manager could ever hope to.

Moyes's world has been turned upside down not by what is happening in Manchester.....but by what is happening here in Liverpool.

Ferguson bullied referees especially at Old Trafford. He picked up many many points this way. Any other manager would have been fined. People forget this.

I thought this was very evident today....on Wednesday night even.

Vidic went down in our penalty box on Wednesday and I thought sure the ref would give a penno......then today that Albanian lad went down in the box and again no pen.

And then they were denied what I thought was a blatant penalty.

They aren't getting the decisions from the officials anymore.

To compound matters, Richard Keyes's favourite lino waved the flag to disallow RVP's equaliser.

All these decisions wouldn't have gone against them in Fergie's day.

..I feel he genuinely sees himself as the successer to SAF, not only in Man Utd terms, but I think he started seeing himself as the father and mentor of other managers on the world stage. He really needs to prove himself now before he gets that status. I dare say Round, Neville and co are sitting on big contracts, but they are also on ego trips and not many of us would shed any tears if they ended up with egg on their faces.

Remeber he also took a lot of backroom staff with him Everton and sacked the Man U lot. Mind he may well have done us a big favour as RM brought in his aides.
