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.
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.
