David Moyes - Man U manager

How he handles certain type of teams/tactics? For example the no. of wins he has had vs. Mancini, as compared to the other 2.

So is he not going to win any away games against top teams with United?
 
I guess this is where we find out how much difference a manager makes, particularly in terms of attraction, tactics and whatnot.

You could just look at Spurs, Swansea, us, QPR etc and come to the right conclusion.

Fuck all difference.
 
This is just too good to be true. I was really concerned 6months ago that they might get Mourinho which would have been a nightmare.
I've just taken a look over at redcafe and they are treating this the same as when we got roy hodgson hahahahahahaha
 
trollcunt has possibly actually lost his mind over the last couple of years. he was sound when i met him but i'd just knock him out now.
 
The thundercunt is still their director...would that mean the FA and referees will still suck up to him?

I hope they do an investigation on the FA ....the results and United's points tally doesn't make any sense, considering the way they have played. I assure you if we had Giggs and Scholes starting 20 games this season, we would be relegated. Yet the cunts seem to manage. I can't get rid of this feeling the FA decided to give him a swansong, and they probably knew about this a while ago. The Suarez ban is just the icing on the cake for him.

Ok i have lost the plot a bit with this constant media sucking up....greatest manager ever...my arse..
 
On a sidenote, Giggs 39, Scholes 38, Ferdinand 34, Vdic, Evra, Carrick turning 32, RVP turning 30. 181 league starts and 202 league app. Another reason behind the length of contract.
 
Oh, and dont underestimate the Fergie effect in a lot of Utds success. He's played a major part, that will be sorley missed. And they'll find that out soon enough.
You watch. Within a year Moyes will own 5 race horses and become a wine connoisseur of that exclusive winery Chateau de Ferguson.
 
John Barnes believes Manchester United's players could suffer a dip in form under their new manager David Moyes in a similar way to the Liverpool squad when Graeme Souness took charge at Anfield 22 years ago.

Like Moyes, Souness replaced an iconic club figure in Kenny Dalglish following his shock resignation as Liverpool manager in February 1991 and was tasked with maintaining not only the club's pre-eminent standing in the country but also rejuvenating a championship-winning side. He did neither and, after a disastrous spell in charge, was sacked in January 1994.

Barnes believes a similar downfall could await United following Sir Alex Ferguson's decision to retire at the end of this season after 27 years in charge at Old Trafford, unless the squad maintains their high standards under Moyes.

"I went through this when Graeme Souness came in [to Liverpool] and we recognised that he might not be popular with the fans," said Barnes. "I would never accuse a player of not trying, but subconsciously you know that if you don't win the fans are going to boo the manager rather than you. As long as that's the case, you don't have to perform.

"If the players at Manchester United have integrity and respect for the club, they should say to themselves that they still have to perform. And if next year they don't do as well as they have this year and in previous years it will not be a reflection on the new manager, it will be a reflection on them."

Given the calibre of United's squad, Barnes, who won two league titles and two FA Cups during a 10-year spell at Anfield, believes they can continue their success and that Ferguson's departure does not necessarily mean the end of a golden era at Old Trafford. "Fergie retiring doesn't have to be a good day for everyone else," he said. "It could be but there is no reason for Manchester United not to continue in the same vein.

"It is a testing time, but the new manager coming in will have the ability and quality to do what Fergie has done because United are a good side. But it's also up to the fans to put pressure on the players to perform and not allow them to think 'if we don't win, it won't be our fault'. In modern football, managers bear the brunt of anything negative and while a lot of people will be hoping for that from United, there is no reason for it to happen."
 
He is given one more year than Alex's first five years of failures.... here is to hoping! 😉

Anyways, we know that managers make no difference whatsoever right? 😉 So Man U will most likely to dominate for another 20 years. ;p
 
I know they've just waltzed their way to another title, but there's a fair bit if work to do with that Man Utd squad - quite a few senior players on the way out and I'm not convinced by theory term quality of some of the players there.

It's a completely different job for Moyes now and he'll have so little room for error.
