So, not only would Moyes of inherited the Champions he'd of had two problems fixed before he'd even sat down in his office for the first time.

Instead he signs Fellaini.

Edit: Leon basically covered it. :joker:

I will add though, this squad should of been more than capable of finish in the top 4. Would the likes of Jose, Guardiola or Klopp have us in seventh spot and losing to the likes of West Brom and Newcastle at home? No.

I don't doubt the Tiago stuff, but I also think that Pep could and would have stepped it at any point required to make sure he got his man. There's enough of a stick to beat the chosen one with, I don't think losing an ex Barca player to Pep at the European champions is one of them.

Absolutely spot on. :thumbs:

I think its now clear SAF was winding down in his last few years but there is no way United should be in this mess. Everything was in place for Moyes to succeed but he fired all the back room staff and decided he didnt want the players who were already virtually signed. Moyes wanted to do it his was and now we see he has no way.

The deal was set up long before Pep came in for him. Moyes could of signed him pretty much instantly, instead he dithered, and in the end chose to sign an average player in Fellaini.

We dem Moyes boys aren't we Leon

Ryan57 19-03-2014 04:55 PM

I thought about this earlier, if we progress tonight and get drawn against a Bayern Munich or Real Madrid... Moyes' position could well become untenable. As we'd get absolutely slaughtered. A la Barcelona last season.

King Gizzard 19-03-2014 04:57 PM

but then would you want the new manager also getting slaughtered by bayern/madrid, might as well stick with him till the end of the season so the new guy doesn't keep losing

Ryan57 19-03-2014 05:06 PM

I was thinking we'd sack him after the second leg. However, if it was after a first leg defeat then we'd probably get at least a half decent result with a new, better, manager.

Yeah, I know what you're saying, but that deal was probably sorted before Pep joined Bayern. My point was that Unless he'd actually signed the contract with you, then I think Peps interest in Thiago would have made him reconsider his options.

too far gone in the season and you don't have much to play for apart from Europa which I think youll get (the club will want it for coefficients and stuff) so you may as well wait now and let a new guy have a summer

Crimson Dynamo 19-03-2014 05:37 PM

Not long now

Its like watching a car crash in slow motion...

If we got someone in now he'd be able to get to know the players and perhaps decide who he wants to keep and who he wants to get rid of.

Fergie will step in as interim manager as he has serious egg on his face after picking Moyes

Cherie 19-03-2014 06:03 PM

:joker: I have posted this before, and enjoy the absolute silence that follows..

When the rumour mill started about Klopp coming, they said it would bethe start of next season and an interim would see the season out. My guess would it be SAF or maybe Micky Phelan back...:shrug:

Brother Leon 19-03-2014 06:07 PM

Sir Alex isn't coming back as interim manager. The new manager shouldn't have to take over from him yet again.

Cherie 19-03-2014 06:07 PM

Phelan possibly!

MTVN 19-03-2014 06:10 PM

Fergie should just piss off altogether tbh, whoever the manager is wouldn't like him looming over them every game in the director's box, especially if they do end up looking for a big name manager if Moyes does go in the next year

Brother Leon 19-03-2014 06:10 PM

If he was sacked early then we would just have Giggs be "Player Manager" while they find so eone for the summer I imagine.

I'd like to see Fergie go. And Bobby Charlton. This whole mess is their fault. They should never have a say ever again.

Don't see any reason why not. Moyes was just not good enough simple as. He stuttered from the start by making a mess of the summer transfer window.

:ummm2: yeah lets get rid of Fergie after all what has he done for United, yes it was a mistake choosing Moyes, but give the guy a break he is is not all knowing!

I'd rather him go as I'm pretty sure the only reason Moyes is still here is due to Fergie. I totally appreciate what he did, but the club needs to move on. Would rather he not be at games watching over.
