Hafnia Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I can agree with the Neville bashing but Moyes is a better manager than you give him credit for. I think moyes is the manager I give credit for. Paid in excess of £50m to provide mid to 7th place finishes on a 7th to 8th salary budget. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid in excess of £50m to provide mid to 7th place finishes on a 7th to 8th salary budget. I'm glad Moyes is gone, but you can't say Moyes only provided mid to 7th place finishes when we finished 4th once and 5th & 6th on a couple of occasions. I get your point, but you really don't give him enough credit. MC11, Toffee_in_LA, markjazzbassist and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get your point, but you really don't give him enough credit. I actually rated moyes to a degree, right up until he thought his expectation dampening ego was too big for us. Despite which he lacked the real bottle to win something. He did his "rescue act" dined out on being the best team outside of the top 5-6 and ended up being a richly paid failure when finally held accountable for having a goal bigger than "just the usual please David". As a manager he was alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Apparently his wage demands are a stumbling block. They can only stretch to 1.5m a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha the expatations will be a bit higher than the ones he got £3.9m a year off us for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Wow, he has plenty of money, you'd think he would just want to get back in the game to do what he loves and to improve his name and get back to a decent club. At least I would. I'd coach for free and get them Europa or something and then move on to the next suitor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest millwallforever Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Looks to me like Pearce has lost the plot at Forest. He was always going to be the wrong appointment. I wouldn't be surprised if Moyes ended up as Forest's next manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) Looks to me like Pearce has lost the plot at Forest. He was always going to be the wrong appointment. Agreed. Pearce is a very poor manager. I was surprised when he got off to a flyer with them, but normal service has been resumed and I'm sure he'll be out of work again very soon.u Edited November 6, 2014 by Romey 1878 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Never really got Pearce as a manager. Probably a good number 2 maybe but certainly not manager. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should stay in England. Being sacked a second time will surely hurt his career a lot. Edited November 9, 2014 by millwallforever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 On one hand I think he should jump at it. Sounds like they have a good squad. It would be a good chapter for Moyes to go at it again. On the other hand, I'm not sure about the whole culture, language, style of play, philosophy. It niggles me for some reason.

Newty82 Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 He's only gone and got it! Although I was fed up with him for the last 2-3 years he was here, it had to be acknowledged that he did a great job here. Good luck to him. I hope he does well.

Are they not second from bottom? I wish him all the best. He's a brave man; we'll see how long he lasts. I suspect that Tim Cahill might get a role in some capacity at the club as well.

Cornish Steve Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Time will tell, but I do find this a strange one. From Moyes' perspective, though, it must have its attractions: proving that he can take a team near the bottom, have them survive, and then make them a difficult team to beat. It's probably the best path back to a decent job in the English Prem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I'm happy for him. They have a great squad and he should keep them up there. I actually think the style of football he plays will work well with the tiki taka over there. Park the bus and counter attack has done us in plenty of times this season and last. I'm sure after a couple good seasons he will be at Spurs, Newcastle or the bundeliga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Be interesting to see how his style of football goes down with their fans. There's no doubt there'll be no attractive football while he tries to keep them up, which is what is needed, but their fans may not be patient enough. Get the sun screen bought, Davie!

Hafnia Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 After watching his teams against the likes of Benfica and Valencia - blood and guts and adrenaline will not be enough. He needs to learn an expansive game or he will fail, simple as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
