The next time you see a Sports post by LK, just remember that he wanted Moyes to replace Sir Alex 3 years ago....

Look at those GIFs man .

I do feel for him tbf. He does seem a good guy and he obviously works hard, but **** me he's in over his head here and the players couldn't give a **** about him. He done a great job for Everton( no matter what some of their bitter fans will try say...I'm sure they would take finishing 4th/5th and finishing above Liverpool this season if they could). That's his level. Hopefully he's put out of his misery soon and he can go to Newcastle or something and rebuild his career.

Compiled by Manchester Evening News, here’s the disastrous list of excuses used by David Moyes for Manchester united’s defeats this term…

Quote:
“I hope it’s not because United won the league quite comfortably last season that the fixtures have been made more difficult.” – Before the season had even started.

“I thought we played well, I thought we did an awful lot of good things, it just wasn’t our day.” – Following the loss away to Liverpool.

“Did we miss out on a lot of targets? No. Was it disappointing? No.” – When asked if he was disappointed with united’s transfer window.

“We didn’t play well enough to win the game. I’ve been here many times with Everton and don’t think I’ve suffered a defeat like this.” – After the 4-1 defeat to bitter rivals Manchester City.

“We’ve just not played that well. We should be scoring more from open play.” – After the shock loss to West Brom at Old Trafford.

“It’s a sore one against your old team. We have a long way to go.” – Post Everton defeat.

”The game raised my spirits. It just made me more determined that we improve and get better.” – After his side’s second consecutive home defeat, this time to Newcastle.

“It’s a stonewall penalty kick. We didn’t play badly. We deserved to win, if not win, at worst draw.” – After losing to Spurs on January 1.

“We don’t come away thinking we deserved to lose – but we did.” – After Swansea loss in the FA cup.

“I can sense the team are getting better. We were unlucky to lose tonight’s game.”- When Sunderland knocked them out of the league Cup.

“The first goal took a deflection. We didn’t deserve to be a goal down. We might have been a goal up.” – After the 3-1 defeat to Chelsea.

“I don’t know what we haw to do to win. I thought we were extremely unlucky.” – United lose to Stoke…

“You could say mental softness that we didn’t see the job out. I don’t know if we could have done an awful lot more.” – Fulham earn a draw at Old Trafford.

“I take responsibility. I am just surprised. I didn’t see that level of performance coming.” – After the awful Champions League performance versus Olympiakos.

“Some decisions went for them which were important at the right time. We just didn’t get to the standards required to beat Liverpool.” – Following the humiliation at the hands of Liverpool on Sunday.

Letting Fergie pick sums up what little bollocks the Glazers have got. And allowing Bobby Charlton to have a say, despite his ironic reasons for not wanting Jose here, just tops it off.

I collect the Season Reviews. This season's will be the worst of the collection. Don't think I'll buy that pile of crap on release.

1.50 'We got to the byline at least 8 or nine times'.

Listen to how this chump talks. This is against Stoke not Barcelona.

youre exaggerated examples is meaningless....moyes had a good record at a weaker club.....hes been a manager for donkeys years at the top level.....hes got the best out of a lot of players too....fergie and others knew him and respected him as a good football man, the fact hes from scotland and has a good strong family around him was an added bonus. hes not a charity shop cleaner, hes an experienced football manager. as for jose , hes awesome. but did he want it? his heart was at chelski and he tends to leave clubs after a few years which isnt the man utd way

There isn't any point sacking him immediately anyway as the season would be finished and the damage done. If they aren't looking for a replacement for the summer though then the board are slacking.

but they were still way good enough for top 4 on paper, not even achieving that

That trio is more than good enough. He could of signed one more in the summer too, but he deemed Garay not good enough when Sir Alex had the deal sorted...his fault.

The midfield..he deemed Thiago not good enough and chose to buy Fellaini instead of Herrera...I don't want to hear any bull**** about the squad... A midfield of Young,Carrick,Clev and Valencia went to the Etihad last season and not just won, but out played City..Moyes has much better options than Sir Alex had since around 09 when we still had Ronaldo and Tevez in attack.

Even if the squad was "weaker than the contenders" there is no excuse losing to WBA,Newcastle and Swansea at Old Trafford.

They will lose to West Ham on sat as we have the Indian sign over them and always batter them when they need the points the most.

He's certainly got the best out of United's players hasn't he? So many people respected him that he was never offered a top job at a world class club before United.

I wonder why?

He does have a good, strong, family. His daughter provides great support. Especially in the groin area of his players.

Fergie did leave behind a crap midfield and some aging problems at centre back.

However, Fergie set up deals for Thiago Alcantara, who would of fixed the creativity in midfield problem, and Ezequial Garay to replace Ferdinand. What did Moyes do? Decided he didn't want them.

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.
