Heartbreak in the Mark Hughes household as he leaps up to answer his mobile phone only to be asked if he's ever been mis-sold PPI.

I'm worried Moyes might play Jones in midfield as well

Sippin' cocktails on a beach somewhere with some *******?

Must keep more up to date on my Sven watch.

That was a qualifier wasn't it?

That was a qualifier.

I'd be very happy to see Moyes at United. Can't see them cutting it in Europe with him and can't see him getting the players to play as well together as Fergie has in the league either.

You're counting a Champions League qualifier are you? :rolleyes:

I so want Jurgen Klopp to be the next manager. Fits in perfectly with the ethos of Manchester United. Do I think it will be him. No. The more you read and listen, it's going to be David Moyes.

I would doubt that Utd would release any kind of announcement on the next manager knowing that said manager (if it was Klopp) would have to lead a team out in a CL final. It isn't our way.

Mourinho's people have said they have had no contact and that he was shocked by the announcement - could be a ruse, who know's with Mourinho?

Moyes is a decent manager, but massively under prepared for Utd imo.

Oh yes.... Wenger will be staying on for a good few seasons now. I bet he thinks he has more of a chance at winning the EPL now.

Tummy · 8 May 2013 at 13:11

Laurent Blanc?

All they need is a scapegoat for whoever intially follows fergie. It won't be someone expensive to sack, it will be moyes.

United want a manager who understands United's special tradition and place in the game. A manager who has a track record in developing young players. And a manager who has a commitment to playing attractive, attacking football.

Those qualities would all point to Moyes."

David Bond - BBC Sports Editor

I can't say that sounds like Moyes.

Sad day for football. Whether you like his team or not, what he's achieved is phenomenal.
