Ignorance of what? I lived thru Moyes.
He was easily our worse manager since Fergie. Not sure you need short memory and Ignorance to know this.
Anyone bigging up Moyes as a united manager is flat out nutz, and hilarious
You not get me bigging up our board at all, but Moyes bought fellaini, tried to buy Baines all summer, knocked back thiago, and then bought Mata..............all while controlling a title winning squad and failing miserably because a catalog of issues mostly around his management or lack of it. Sounds like you got selective memory.
Anyone not being able to differentiate
worse and
worst is flat out 'nutz' and 'hilarious'.
With that sort of limitations, I am not surprised you fail to see I clearly wasn't bigging David Moyes up as a United manager. All I said was he has West Ham playing good football (had it not been for Rice and Antonio injuries, they could have easily finished in the top four in by far the best league in the world), would have done a good job at United had he been backed like the PE teacher is, and Sociedad wasn't a failure (neither was it a success).
He tried to buy Fabregas, Kross, Bale and Coentrao all summer, but the board failed to get the deals done.
He bought Fellaini as the same impotent board who couldn't get Ballack, Essien, Ronaldinho, Hazard for Sir Alex... couldn't get him his prime targets.
Indeed.
We weren't trying to sign Kroos in 2013, not sure how signing Bale would have had any effect on the potential of signing Fellaini considering they don't play in the same position. Fabregas perhaps but Moyes said himself he would have still signed Fellaini he just didn't want him to be his first signing as he thought it would put too much pressure on him.
Real Madrid pulled the plug on the Coentrao deal as they couldn't sign a replacement.
Moyes himself has said he tried to sign Kross all summer and had the deal agreed with both the player and his agent. Signing Bale for 100mil. would affect the Fellaini purchase the same way buying Sancho and paying Ronaldo 500K every week affected buying a midfielder this summer. Fabregas was not a 'perhaps'. It's only 'perhaps' because you are trying to make a poor argument sound more solid by randomly adding modal adverbs. Fabregas was on the brink of joining, both the player and David Moyes said as much.
I will give you Coentrao. Not that it proves anything or takes away from my point that ignorance is more prevalent than trolling. Ta-ra.
I'm old enough to remember his disastrous time in La Liga and I'm sure you don't watch a lot of spanish football. To make it short the season with him they finished in a lower position than the previous team, once he was sacked they did a lot better the following season.
I am old enough to have seen a bunch of kids guessing whether I watch some league or not. You've been added to the list.
I watched almost every Sociedad game that season, as I was very interested in seeing how a British manager would fare abroad. To make it short, as you say, they did finish lower than the previous term
when they had Griezmann on the team, yes. However, once their best player left, they started the season poorly and were in relegation form before Moyes got there. He stabilised them, played decent football and finished 12th.
The next season, they started poorly, but to say they did a lot better once Moyes left is nonsense. With Moyes, they finished 12th. Without Moyes the next season, they finished 9th, 4 points ahead of the 12th team in the table.
