• I said nobody wanted it "after Ferguson". A hiding to nothing for any manager. Moyes was a stop gap. Van Gaal was approached and knew the job was his after his 2014 World Cup duty was done....
  John Collins in Wayne Rooney believes David Moyes is improving Everton
• Dave, I don't dispute that. But John said that no other manager wanted it. Pretty much every manager in world football outside of Barca, Madrid, & Liverpool would have wanted it. The fact that United went with Moyes was on them. They had the financial muscle to take anyone they wanted. It was the biggest thing to happen to that club in 25 years, and they let the ceo & manager leave at the same time. Ferguson rated him, and looked at him as an assistant previously if my memory is right. The board approved the appointment vs the other alternatives. I am sure it was thought through. ...

I was relieved when he left and will feel,the same next time he goes which can’t come quick enough for me....
  Dave Abrahams in Wayne Rooney believes David Moyes is improving Everton
• Eric (45),More importantly, has Moyes considered players who might want to play? Like Patterson, Alcaraz McNeil and Rhol who have hardly played this season. Added to the seven changes he made in the Wolves League Cup tie, including four players who had hardly kicked a ball all season, he then tried to rescue the game with his regulars but conceded another goal instead.Changing a winning team, putting a player who is poor at full-back in that position, instead of a player who is a full-back... etc, etc.Moyes is a very good manager for those who like but only a very mediocre manager for those who are a bit fussy and want a manager who wants to try and win games — especially the important ones -- semi finals and finals... cancel that -- one final....
