David Moyes Slaughtered By Manchester united Fans After Everton Loss by Etumgbe(m): 9:29am On Dec 05, 2013 |
It’s safe to say that David Moyes’ first game against Everton as Manchester United manager didn’t exactly go to plan. Try as they may, United just couldn’t score and a 1-0 loss leaves United 12 points off the top of the Premier League. Following the loss, there were plenty of fans who immediately spat vitriol towards Moyes on any social media platform in what was a tirade of abuse in reaction to the result. On both the official Facebook account and The Peoples Person Facebook account, fans made their opinions abundantly clear – Moyes out. There is no denying that this year has not gone to plan so far but in the biggest season of transition at United, it is to be expected at least at the start. You simply cannot replace nearly three decades worth of experience at the helm of United and not have any teething problems. Just like Marouane Fellaini needs time to settle and find his feet at Old Trafford, so does Moyes. The squad that United have wasn’t built by Moyes, he inherited it and is yet to give it his own identity. That is something that will take time. Football has always worked in cycles and United are starting their cycle this season. We all know that the midfield is our weak point and so does Moyes. Even though he signed Fellaini, he failed to adequately strengthen but at least he tried with Ander Herrera and Cesc Fabregas. Patience is not a virtue in football but United fans need to have some. Results against Arsenal and Bayer Leverkusen show what United can do under Moyes when it clicks but right now, that consistency hasn’t been found. Don’t jump on the bandwagon and slam Moyes at any given opportunity, he isn’t going anywhere. Scapegoats aren’t necessary after every loss, it’s always a collective effort. If he fails to make the top four, that may change but as of right now, some United fans need to stop acting so spoilt and remember that success is never guaranteed. Fans reactions dfan says: 12/05/2013 at 03:03 Rubbish, the fact that Man Utd management is still backing Moyes is starting to make them look STUPID!!! His substitutions during then Everton match shows his lack of tactical knowledge, had he taken Welbeck off for Hernandez instead of Kagawa, would have resulted in a goal for us when the header opportunity came our way, and the removal of Rafael instead of Giggs caused us the goal because Valencia is not a natural right back, instead he should have moved Valencia into the middle in place of Giggs and let either Nani or Janujaz take the right wing. Such a simple tactical move seems to elude Moyes, his substitutions cause our team to lose its attacking momentum and also destabilize the defense. Everyone seems to point to the middle as our problem which is rightly so, BUT a 40 year old Giggs is not the solution, instead Valencia would have provided better cover in the middle as he is used to playing in the middle for his country. This simple account should clearly highlight Moyes’s tactical deficiency, and the fact that he let Rene go is also another Big mistake.

He’s been incompetent, naïve and it seems, to a lot of people, he doesn’t have the total backing of players. RVP clearly dislikes him, Rooney is playing well not because he likes him but surely to prove the old fogey wrong. Sadly, Utd’s decline is now well and truly underway and only SAF is responsible. HE BOUGHT RUBBISH PLAYERS and managed to install an unworthy guy as manager. Reply Sap says: 12/05/2013 at 04:52 Nani and Januzaj should be given more starts, they are positive players alongside Rooney, Kagawa, Valencia and the others but certainly not the beehive Fellaini…..just let him go… Reply Just a fan says: 12/05/2013 at 05:13 What has moyes done, besides show up to work on time, to deserve our unconditional support? We are 9th in the league and playing horribly. “But we beat arsenal and leverkusen!!!” Big fucking deal. Leverkusen stinks and Arsenal had 3 starters go home because illness swept their locker room. We won because we had a perfectly executed set piece from two world class players. We had 36% possession in that game and created 2 or 3 chances at the most. I will admit that I was so excited when we won but I am back to reality. Everything has gone to shit since moyes showed up. I was excited when we hired him because I liked what he was able to do with minimal talent at everton. Now he is managing quality players straight into the ground. “But this is SAF’s team and not moyes’ preferred players.” Adapt to what you have to work with. This same team + fellaini won the league last season and now every team in the league expects to beat us. If this team was not good enough for moyes, he had ALLLLLL summer to bring players in…but instead he sent clowns like phil neville out to list a bunch of united players and say (paraphrasing) “these guys are good!” and “we want to add quality to the side, not just bring in extra players.” Clearly these jokers thought that the team they had was good enough to win the league (they were until a new manager came in). We, as united fans, have every right to bitch and moan when our team is playing the way they are. We tune in to watch every game, buy shirts, subscribe to the teams websites, etc. Supporting gives us license to call them out on their bullshit. I call it how I see it. I am not going to sit around and patronize moyes until his contract expires and we are a lower half team with no talent because all of our great players left to win trophies for a manager they respect. If the 11 players on the field are all playing like shit, it is the fault of the manager. You fans up on your high horse that think you are so special because you have supported this club for X amount of years have been drinking the kool-aid for too long. Living in a fantasy world and pretending that the team is fine and moyes will get it sorted and we will find a way to win the league does not make you any better than those of us who are watching the game with unbiased eyes and living in the real world. We are calling out moyes because we love this club and we demand better. Allowing moyes to coach this team to play at such an embarrassing level and get away with it sets a new precedent. He needs to be ridiculed so that he understands that this is not acceptable at united. 9th place is never good enough with this club. There is too much quality in this team for any manager to screw up this badly. I can pick 11 names out of a bucket and get a result against these teams we are losing and drawing too. Clearly there is no motivation in the side to play hard and honorably. Moyes is setting the standard and it is not good enough. I am not saying “moyes out” but I am saying to pick it up 5 notches or go home and let me coach.
