Tom wasn't far wrong back then. SAF should have given us another season so we could have potentially lined up a top class replacement. I'm sure SAF could have signed a couple of decent players to keep the squad at a better standard than it is now.
Unfortunately, not that many of us saw the fact we were prepared to take a massive gamble that he'd "come good" and turn into a great manager, rather than getting a ready made one. It did seem inevitable though.

van Gaal
Hiddink
Ancelotti
Klopp
Simeone
I'd take any of them, impossible to actually know who would be available or interested though. I think Simeone would be the biggest gamble out of those names, but it would be an interesting one.

Lol klopp is to management what lehman is to goalkeeping. Major drama.
But now th3 question should be not if Moyes should go but how can he stay?
For any team aspiring to defend their title, 3 points at home against the bottom 3 clubs should be mandatory.

Wednesday will be interesting. Both teams need 3 points urgently after previous performance. Could be a cracking game.
If Moyes loses though he'll certainly be in trouble as the gap to the top clubs will increase even more.

Im not sure why 3 points is more important to UTD now than it waw before kick off on Sunday?
would have thought it was obvious, no? Their goal is to finish in top 4. Losing to any of the top 4 teams therefore makes that much more difficult

If he wasn't sacked after the last few results then he's comfortable to the end of the season.

Getting 3 points at home to bottom of the league is more important as Arsenal are too far ahead of us to catch anyway so it's hardly a 6 pointer. Unless im looking at a different league table to you.
The 3 points should be a home banker and given recent results and signings it was imperative to win no?
You wouldn't want Klopp? Is there any from Nuclear Winters list you would want?
Personally I'm not convinced at all Hiddink is good enough.
Personally I think United fans need to accept that it's going to take time. You've had a manager for the past 20+ years, no-one is going to walk into your life and fill that void, and make you win things the way you were. It's going to take time and a managerial merry-go-round will no help you.
If players are going against Moyes and he's lost the dressing room then those players should be dealt with accordingly, are they going to go against anyone because they aren't SAF?

Not sure his high energy touchline style would survive the uk press. I wouldn't be adverse to him over Moyes but he's a risky pne.
Couldn't agree more, it's criminal how often he doesn't get a game.
As a Manchester United fan, I've voted to sack him.
I think the performances and result speak for themselves and whilst the squad he took over isn't exactly robust as previous United teams, it's certainly a squad that's capable of achieving better results.
Moyes' praises have been sang loud and clear for the past 5+ years because people wrongly believe that the collective players at Everton, as a team, have been over performing due to Moyes' management. Actually, if you look at Everton's squad over the years, on paper, they've had the right setup and players to achieve ~6 position in the EPL. I think this is proven by the fact Martinez's Everton is currently in or around the same position you expect them to be, whilst playing more exciting football.
I wasn't expecting to win anything this season, but I wasn't expecting to question the probability of us qualifying for the Champions League and I fully believe we won't. That's a two horse race between Liverpool & Spurs in my opinion.

I dunno, the guy has got a bit of tactical nous. I'd say he's lacking in loyalty, he scooted out at the first sign of bigger club coming in earlier this season...he caused quite a mess up there actually..
He's offside far too much for me, he's gets into great positions but his anticaption is so poor. Utd need a new striker in the summer for sure.

You clearly recognize or know good football, the manager has brought in a change of tactics that are prehistoric, against teams like Stoke and Fulham who set themselves up to eat crosses with large centre backs, what do we do, feed them crosses and hit a team mate around 10% of the time. he has them making crosses to players like RVP, Rooney and Mata, they like to play the ball with their feet where they excel, he is literally negating their greatest assets because he plays on number averages like Sam Allardyce. He is a M.O.R.O.N.
you're just one of those people that like's to think he's better than the rest because he won't call for the head of someone, ironic forum name.

Not simeone, too much history and im not convinced.
Any of the other three have a wealth more experience and ability compared to Moyes.
Actually you're quite wrong.
I would say he needs to go if that's what I thought, but you can't transition from the legacy SAF left easily. It's something you have to go through and that's what United fans need to accept.
