Really? You're asking this question on a Liverpool site about Man Utd losing, what do you think?
Well, there is Pat.
I'm afraid he'll get fired. So I'm not unhappy they won. I want Moyes to get them into the top 10, maybe even 5th.
There's people who want him to stay until the end of season. The club will only stick by him if he wins games, hence the question.
I want him in the job as long as possible so a win away to Sunderland is just fine by me.
Worst case scenario he gets sacked before they are to far adrift.
The odd win here or there is fine.
Souness wasn't the cause of Liverpool's demise. He certainly didn't help, but there were more important factors elsewhere.
Still plenty of food for thought there though. Here's hoping.

Unfortunately the parallels are undermined when you consider that Kenny is not a drunken tramp whose mother has had carnal relations with Lucifer.
[article]"The fear comes from the team on the pitch," commented Moyes.
"Obviously, Sir Alex Ferguson has a great history, and his experience will always work in charge of any team. But the players have always been the people that have to turn out and do it."[/article]

[article=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11667/8988226/transfer-news-mike-phelan-says-sir-alex-ferguson-was-eyeing-top-talent]Mike Phelan says Manchester United would have delivered a marquee signing had Sir Alex Ferguson's regime remained at Old Trafford.
Ferguson took the decision to slip into retirement at the end of the 2012/13 campaign, passing the managerial reins on to fellow Scot David Moyes.
With chief executive David Gill also vacating his post, it proved to be a summer of transition for the red half of Manchester.
Transfer plans were hindered as a result, with Marouane Fellaini the only new arrival despite several targets being chased.
Phelan, who left his assistant manager role alongside Ferguson, feels United missed a trick, with Moyes unable to wrap up the kind of deal that his predecessors had in the pipeline.
He told a Scandinavian United supporters' club magazine: "If Sir Alex and David Gill had still been the bosses, I won't name the player, but there would have been a star signing, one of the absolute best players in the world.
"It was something the boss talked about, and the owners and David Gill were also quite clear on doing it.
"There's very few of such players out there. I think it's clear to everybody who I'm talking about.
"We didn't see the need for a big clear-out of the squad, that's why Sir Alex and I had the one big signing in sight. One such star signing gives everybody a lift, we saw that with Robin van Persie."

Are those bottom 2 teeth or top 2 teeth?
