    Are Uniteds problems going to just go away by sacking Moyes?

    I don't think so.

    This is a lot like Liverpool were in the early 1990s. As Ronnie Whelan stated recently . . .back then Liverpool signed players who were not good enough to play for them (after their years of dominance).

    United are very much the same - throw in players who don't want to play for Moyes as well.

    At least 6/7 very good players are required.

    Judging by the money spent on Fellaini I wouldn't trust Moyes to spend any more money wisely

    Yes, I agree, problem?
    And it's "cue" BTW, only helping to improve the intellect.

    So am I theonly one who though Fellaini did okay yesterday ? Sloppy in the first 10 mins but improved as the game went on. Carrick , Mata, Rooney and RVP were the real stinkers yesterday..

    sigh

    A new manager would solve 80% of the issues. Getting 3 more players would solve the rest.

    We dont need house whole changes, the team is damn good as it is but they need a manager that they want to play for

    Ya. He showed he's true potential against west brom.

    I don't get the hate for him, he could turn into one of the top players in Europe with the right team built around him!

    I thought he had a good game, broke up a lot of play and retrieved the ball on numerous occasions, thought rafael had a great game going forward

    None of the forwards turned up which is a pity, I think we had one shot on target

    Shocking to come in here and read all the sacking talk! Regardless if we go out on Wednesday he ain't gonna go anywhere, the man needs at least he first season if not two. Very unfair to be calling for his head now.
    It's been a hard season to stomach so far but watching the fans singing their hearts out at the end of the Liverpool game yesterday tells you enough. Stick by the man, it will get better!!

    Do you really want to get into this? You're one of those that spends their time stalking me, and it's getting a little embarrassing at this stage.

    But listen, if you want evidence of all the Man Utd games that I have been to, please drop me a PM and we'll continue this there. But with regards to this thread, grow the fuck up.

    Your a ****ing idiot.

    The players shouldn't be just playing for a manager, they are playing for a team, for pride and most of all, for the fans who support them and pay their massive wages.
    Whether the manager is appropriate or not for the team shouldn't come into it, the players should be doing a lot better than they are considering their professional contracts.

    Klopp football philosophy would just breathe life into Old Trafford again and completely change the dynamic and how we play and set up our tea,. Beyond those kinds of intangibles, too, there is the way he is trying to push boundaries in the game: Klopp practises truly modern football and he would be able to utilise the players we have and have them playing to their true potential.

    Klopp has said he doesn't intend on leaving B.D but Man United simply must test to that statement to the fullest. In short, since they didn't get Mourinho or Guardiola, this is the man the English champions should be striving for. It would be a new club, and a proper new era.
    BUT better still we will be able to take that PATHETIC BANNER DOWN !!!!

    Read this on Redcafe there, was in this months red issue. Seriously, we should be running the clueless bastard out of Old Trafford with pitchforks and torches.

    Fellaini and Carrick were still in each others way a lot of the time. Shambolic at this stage in such a pivotal and large area.

    Why will it get better ?? Because it cant get worse ?? You keep your head in the sand there and hope the problems go away. I will continue to debate the merits of disposing of Moyes.

    I think Headshot hit the nail on the head. The players need to want to play for the manager and that just isn't happening under Moyes.

    Take Hodgson at Liverpool, he just wasn't right for the job, not good enough for that big a job. He's had relative success at other teams and I have no doubt Moyes will too. But it is all relative, finishing top 6 year after year is the success that Moyes achieved and seemingly could not surpass. Hodgson turned teams into solid mid table ones. I have no doubt he's not a good manager but he's just not a United manager.

    That's fine for a lot of teams but at United things are different. The expectations and the criteria for a United manager should be sky high and rightly so. Moyes has never even knocked on the door of these heights and that is and will continue to be the problem with his management.

    Pretty Epic



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,299 ✭✭✭spiralism


    These rumours going around of players thinking he's a clown says it all really. He's not got anything even resembling a clue and each day we don't sack him he's doing more damage. Hope a player mutiny is incoming and they demand he's sacked, Chelsea style. This has gone on long enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,953 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    apart from the fact he's a multi-millionaire, I do feel sorry for Moyes.

    it's not his fault he was offered a job he couldn't do.

    it happens in all walks of life.

    I don't. I feel absolute disdain for him not having the balls to admit he's out of his depth and having quit weeks ago. He's committed career suicide by not jumping at this stage and no club will ever go near him again after this.

    I can't feel anything but anger at the man who has ruined Manchester United. David Moyes can **** off.

    Your a ****ing idiot.

    How sad your lives must be for someone to make you so angry. And just a yellow card for that kind of personal abuse. Interesting.

    I'm not angry, I find you quite funny. :)

    This grand. I've had enough of this thread anyway. 80% decent football types, 20% kindergarten bullies. I've reported countless posts to the mods but they choose to do nothing when it comes to me. You'd swear I was a member of the Westboro Baptist Church. Football does strange things to people.

    All the best, and let's hope our team sorts itself out in the coming weeks. :o

    You sound like you're ready to go on Jeremy Kyle and have a nice cry for yourself.

    As an Everton fan I couldn't understand why moyes got the job. Far too defensive minded to manage a club who crave attacking football. The late subs is a trademark of his. Very seldom makes changes before 70 mins.he's dour stubborn and the staff at Everton were glad to see the back of him. Check out Kevin sheedys tweets about him last night re ignoring his youth team.

    Now looking at man U I wouldn't even play vidic never mind captain him when he's leaving in ten games. Rvp doesn't care and should be dropped. Fellaini is not good enough. Only moyes would buy him twice. Barry is twice the player for Everton that fellaini was.

    I can see moyes going in the summer. He'd be perfect for Celtic but man U should have broke the bank for Jose last year

    If he quits he'll be costing himself a fortune. You can't expect anyone to do that. I understand completely the frustration but i'm also pretty sure that he genuinely believes he can turn it around. He's a professional, i'm sure he still has faith in himself. Misguided maybe but still...

    He'll be sacked in the summer i'm sure. Most telling thing for me yesterday was that a lot of Liverpool fans didnt want them to score more goals in case it got him the bullet. I think most now want Utd to win every non champions league game they have left!!!

    why would he quit?

    there is literally no reason for him to walk.

    he is not a Utd fan from what I know, he's on a long contract and is in the biggest job he's ever going to have.
