Just a question…
Do people on here not like Moyes because of his comments etc when he left? Is that the main reason or just didn’t like him as a manager?
Everyone says he’s not a winner which I get, he’s not my first choice but how many FA cup finals, semi finals & top 6 finishes have we had since he left?
Speaking personally, I'm not bothered about what he said when he left, nor that he left. Indeed, I was personally delighted when he left.
No, the reason I don't want him back is because if you're a club looking to progress and win something, he's one of the last managers you should have near the job. It hasn't surprised me that he's did a good job for West Ham, but what he's done this season is the very limit of what he can do - watch next season when he starts trotting out the excuses, talking about expected losses and so on.
He'd be in every way a pointless appointment, because we don't need him to finish top ten - we pretty much will be default due to the way the league is.
So yeah, for me it's very much managerial reasons. He's the second worst option on the list for me, slightly ahead of Howe - which would be waving the white flag as a club and asking to be folded up - but slightly worse than Duncan Ferguson.
