Up to 4th now. City away next Saturday will be tough but he'll hope his team will make it hard for the title favourites.
The way they play i actually think they have a chance against City.

The way Moyes is going it wouldn’t be beyond the realms of possibility for him to be back at Man Utd as manager in the future. At least he wouldn’t have to succeed Sir Alex this time.
That 2-2 draw with Fulham with a world record number of crosses will take some beating!Didn’t realize he did Jose today. Nice. Imagine if he actually gets top 4 with West Ham. I would say that would probably be the best achievement of his career in the context of what the league is like now.
Imagine if he gets a result against City as well.
It would be interesting to hear an honest assessment from Moyes of what happened in his jobs after United. I never thought he was good enough for United but, post-United, he seemed to be phoning it in and barely PL standard. From a distance, it looks like he was traumatised by how his promotion to the top table turned into humiliation, and it has taken 7 years for him to regain his equilibrium.

He qualified with Everton in 04-05.Qualifying for the CL for the 1st time after nearly 20 years managing in the PL would definitely be the biggest achievement of his career.

In all seriousness though, it would be a magnificent achievement. Weren’t they battling relegation when he took over?
He qualified with Everton in 04-05.
they were very unfortunate to be drawn in the qualifiers against a very good Villarreal side who ended up making the semi finals. IIRC they were on the wrong end of a couple of ref howlers too.
He took the wrong jobs, to be fair to him.
He had no business being at a top Club, no other top club had a sniff at him in 10 years at Everton. If not for Fergie he would have never got the chance.
Sociedad was another terrible choice as he didn't speak a word of Spanish and didn't seem too rushed to learn either.
Sunderland were a team struggling for a few seasons and staged a few great escapes, but a personality like Moyes was unlikely to inspire them.
Now he's back at a mid-table club where workmanlike football that gets results and pushing for a European place is the best they can hope for he's doing ok again.
That's his level.
He spoke "dos, tres, quatros" words I'll have you know!
Yeah and he would have learned to count all the way up to 10 in Spanish but Sociedad didn't give him enough time. If he'd known he was getting sacked after only 1 year he would have taken the advanced Spanish lessons. Which would have been more than 2 hours per week.

What?I think he's done well at West Ham and deserves a shot at the big time. I wouldn't mind him taking over when Ole retires.
Don't even fecking joke about it.I think he's done well at West Ham and deserves a shot at the big time. I wouldn't mind him taking over when Ole retires.
