ManU haven't had a good manager for a while.


Confused by this. Are you saying Ferguson wasn't good?

Never liked his style. He was alright, he woudln't have survived in teams like Barca, Real, Juventus, etc...

Howard Webb retires, Manchester United are currently erecting a statue in celebration of his efforts.

The most successful manager in the history of the premier league. Alright, sure...

Sure, 30 years in the same seat. Who wouldn't have?



To me he was an alright coach with a very patient team. Ferguson wouldn't have much success in big teams outside of England. That's what I think.

Speaking of Man U, why cant someone bring up a new Paul Scholes?

As if he wasn't allowed to stay that long for a reason. Backwards reasoning there.

Moyes wouldn't even be on a B list of Barca, Real, or other forces in Europe. Not really backwards reasoning.

Were we talking about Moyes or Ferguson? Moyes stayed for one year because he was shit. Ferguson stayed for however long he liked because he kept winning titles.

Moyes was put on MU seat because the owners don't know jack about soccer. They had a chance to hire Mourinho, Ancelotti, Guardiola , even Villas Boas could do a better job. Ferguson didn't really have a competition internally until Mourinho showed up and M. City was bought.

Liverpool hasn't won anything consistently for a while,

Arsenal (...),

Chelsea is the most successful English team for the last 10 years IMO,

M.City just started playing something with a good coach this time around.
