distraction or not good enough!
look at the hypocrite that was arguing against european teams just before the world cup now changing his mouth.

distraction my foot - as if the south american clubs don't get distracted too. fergie's treble winning squad shunned the FA cup to go play in that competition in 1999 & got their arsës handed to them.

It's a distraction and I see no correlation with the world cup. Small teams put in more effort in these rubber cups.

coogar:


because moyes was a morön!
fergie had a special schedule for rio & vidic. he never played them consecutively in games. the backroom staff that shoulda guided moyes with the fitness regime & gym work has been sacked by the fool.....so whose fault was it?

fergie warned him - don't change things too quickly. his first objective was to steady the ship. retain all backroom personnel & let them perform their magic. this season, he can then start to replace them one by one.


How many matches did Rio played in 2012/13 when he was fit? Vidic was not played by SAF because he was just returning from injury.

* Don't change things too quickly could mean dont buy players too quickly. cheesy


coogar:


direction of real madrid? grin
which top class player would sign for moyes? you think it's all about money? players have managers they fully respect.

van gaal is a world class manager. in 95, he won a whole champions league with a bunch of teenagers. he did wonders at barcelona & even bayern.

that's who you want to compare to foolish moyes? is moyes better than fanny amun? a manager that doesn't play to win games? a manager that said he would have taken a draw against hull fc before a game?

It's all about money and availability. Moyes bought Mata.

He was one of the best managers in the EPL before we hired him. He had won the manager of the season 3 times. He missed out on Carling cup narrowly after beating Man United in the semi final. He narrowly lost FA Cup final to Chelsea in 2009. He had finished 4th in the league and made Everton a feared team in the EPL.

ChristineC:

If this is your expectation, then be patient for a year. The targets for the season has gone lower because of the debacle under Moyes, the fans and board deem a top four finish as the spring in the club's step to familiar heights.

As it stands (according to the league table), van Gaal is well on course to make it happen.


I'm more concerned with some of the shameful results we have recorded under LVG and more importantly, our penchant for using injuries as an excuse. The fact that I believe he will come good ( due to his pedigree and definitely not with the results and supposed "improved performances" thus far) doesn't mean I shouldn't express my disappointment when we lose 0-4 against a third tier team. We haven't recorded an away win this season despite visiting the home grounds of the leicesters, sunderlands and burnleys of this world. #pathetic#

it's the same & there's no distraction. european teams cherish playing in them cos it's usually played in tropical countries where warm weather is welcome at that time of the year.


How many matches did Rio played in 2012/13 when he was fit? Vidic was not played by SAF because he was just returning from injury.

35 appearances for rio - he won the PFA slot as the best defender that season. he was well rested in the domestic cup competitions & in champions league so he can perform optimally.


* Don't change things too quickly could mean dont buy players too quickly. cheesy

fergie specifically told him to keep the backroom staff.


It's all about money and availability. Moyes bought Mata.

mata wasn't what we needed when we bought him. woodward just used the mata deal to please the irate fans. moyes had the whole summer to work out who to bring in & the fool ruined that season - it was until the last day of the transfer he made any move to sign herrera & it was too late by then.

we gave moyes more than a season...
he inherited a squad of league champions, a competent backroom staff with a wealth of quality experience, a seeded status in europe & fit players as at when moyes took over.

within 9 months, gollum destroyed everything SAF built for more than 20 years. we gave LVG 80% of the low confidence players who suffered a torturous season under moyes, half-fit squad, new backroom staff, no place in european football & so on and so forth.

that's the thing about some of these useless british managers. they all have friends in the media to hype their small mentality to the high heavens. moyes got the united job by the virtue of his nationality....

if he was from serbia or holland, he would never have been considered for it. scottish solidarity killed ferguson & ultimately cost united. i like how fergie quickly dissociate himself from moyes.

let the fool carry his own cross himself...

SAF is a British manager too.

You have forgotten SAF approached Guardiola and Mourinho b4 Moyes. Moyes was a logical choice at the end because the desirables were not available, and Moyes familiarity with the EPL got him the job- something we were told by the board. No one here mentioned Martinez when SAF resigned.

this is even the more reason it's by british hype. wenger(french) & kineaar(irish) are the only foreign managers to have won that award in the history of the premier league.

but SAF arrived with his pedigree. he had won plenty of titles in aberdeen before he signed. actually, his feat in the scottish league surpasses whatever any of guardiola or mourinho have achieved.

guardiola already had a contract with bayern by the time it even came out SAF was retiring. jose was waiting for SAF's call & it never came cos the old wily fox preferred a manager thee has an allergy to club success.

jose should have been given the job. he cried when he heard a fool like moyes got the job & jose quickly reconciled with abramovic to get the chelsea job as spain was getting too heated for him.

mourinho wanted the united job more than the chelsea job. all those antics he played when we lost to madrid admitting the better side lost on the night is just what it was - aśslicking to get the united job.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nihilist: 9:48pm On Nov 11, 2014
Martinez was lucky to win the FA Cup.

Wigan went down that year, and Martinez was unable to improve Everton's league standing to following year.

Infact, I would argue that the defensive solidity Everton had under Moyes is gone. Look at Everton conceding goals left, right, and centre. This is not unlike the Wigan under Martinez who would play gung-ho football and ship baskets of goals and flirt with relegation annually

Even the so called attractive football under Martinez has so far failed to yield dividends as they only have 3 wins out of 11 league games.

And all of this after spending heavily in the transfer market

Martinez is a downgrade on Moyes

[b]Coogar, below the Moyes' awards. Which other managers apart from the big four should have won it?

2003, 2005 and 2009 League Managers Association Manager of the Year.


2003: After spending the last few seasons struggling against relegation, Everton, revitalised under David Moyes, spent the season challenging for European qualification, at one stage going ahead of arch-rivals Liverpool, who had finished runners-up the previous season. Everton memorably ended Arsenal's unbeaten run in a match at Goodison Park which saw teenage striker Wayne Rooney score the winner, his debut Premiership goal. Rooney was later nominated for the PFA Young Player of the Year award, but lost to Newcastle United's Jermaine Jenas.

............................................

2005: Many pundits had tipped Everton for relegation that season: having escaped relegation from the Premier League by six points the previous season, Everton's task to stay in English football's top flight only seemed harder after the multi-million pound transfer of teenage striker Wayne Rooney to Manchester United after setting the summer's European Championships alight. However, the season turned out to be Everton's most successful in Premier League history as they placed fourth in the league with 61pts
................................................


2009- finished 5th and FA Cup runners up. [/b]

it's their way - this is why they never win any competition for their country. players who aren't better than emenike are being touted as world class in their media.

if rooney & RVP perform equally in a game, the commentator would quickly give the MOTM to rooney without hassles. a foreign player has to play outta his skin to win MOTM awards.

all the time a british player has won PFA player of the year award, there's a better foreign player that was ignored through the media brainwashing.

that's even small.
let's assume there's a difficult away match in europe where 2 foreign players got a brace each and rooney came on in the last 20 mins to score a penalty to make it 5-0, the media would report it as "rooney helps united to secure victory in portugal."

it would be rooney's picture on the front page & rooney's name on the headlines.
