He’s a cock…I’ve no need to do anything other than think that. I don’t have to say he’s done well. It’s his level, yet he’s still adamant that United do him wrong.

Well done Moyesy, really pleased to see him happy!
Funny how the only two managers to have won it are Mourinho and Moyes. Happy for the man, it was not his fault that he was thrown into the deep end at United - better managers than him and have come and failed after.
Also gets West Ham Europa League football next year - that'll help them in the transfer window for replacing the Rice money.

Congratulations to West Ham and to Moyes, they’ve done really well to get a European trophy.
I’m happy for him.

Nothing against him, happy he's had this moment.
Well done moyesy
Well done Moyes and West Ham.
Big job to be done there this summer - Rice is going and Fabianski, Cresswell, Ogbonna and Antonio are ageing out. All players that have been effective and consistent for them and cost peanuts. Need to spend wisely as they didn’t have a great league campaign and its Thursday nights again next year.

Well done to Gollum a nice reward after a tough decade for him.
Congrats Moyes a top bloke.
Happy for him

Congratulations to Moyes. He eventually won a trophy!
Oh jesus I'm not even his biggest fan myself, but cry me a river
I think they could be fighting relegation again next year if they don't recruit well. CL clubs might be sniffing around Pacqueta too.
Well done to Moyes. Well deserved.
I think he was the wrong appointment for United, too safe, too conservative, too uninspiring, all of that.
But I think the success of Ferguson papered over a lot of cracks behind the scenes at the club that only became apparent after he retired. I certainly wouldn't blame him for the decline since Fergie retired, I think any manager in the world would have struggled in the circumstances.
Well done Moyes.
Maybe he can make the step up to United. If things don’t work out with ETH of course. hehe
I’m afraid it may seem churlish, particularly amongst all the ‘happy for him’ posts, but I agree with you. Can’t stand the guy personally, and I thought West Ham were lucky to win it.
The joy when Bowen scored was beautiful.
Don’t like West Ham, don’t like Moyes. It’s a real shame.
So there will be 5 English teams in the CL right?
No, they will be in the Europa League next season
A shame we let Moyes go when we did. Three more seasons and he would have sorted it all out.
Yeah, that could have been us lifting the Europa League Conference trophy last night, if only we had more patience.
With probably only a few posters left in the Caf, as the rest would be banned for years of profanity infractions.
Delighted for Moyes and West Ham. Well done
Is this his first major career trophy?
Moyes not too bad after all.
So how long did he set United back then?
A decade is absurd but if you were to say his appointment and decisions while in the job had no lasting negative affect. Then honestly that's equally absurd.
You are delighted West Ham won a trophy?
Always a point of great pride in Scottish football this and huge congrats to Moyes. Can't stand West Ham but genuinely chuffed for him.
Exactly thoughts
Well done Moyesy.
Heard on the grapevine that Rice is staying.

I think you need to re-read my post.
At a stretch, two years. The year he was in charge and the following year when we were out of European competitions.
We've seen top clubs frequently hire unqualified managers: Kovac at Bayern, Setien at Barca, AVB at Chelsea, Lopetegui at Real, etc. None of these managers ever do any lasting damage, and the clubs usually bounce back quickly after sacking the manager.
The truly damaging decisions that were taken at United over the past decade - hemorrhaging money on crap signings without an overarching plan for the squad, handing out massive contracts like candy, failing to invest in supporting infrastructure, sidelining the club's scouts, jumping from manager to manager without a cohesive, consistent philosophy or style of play (resulting in a mish-mash squad that's not fit for purpose) - were all actions taken by Woodward and, by extension, the Glazers.
Well to be fair mate I'm asking you a question based on reading your post I'm not making a statement.
Fair enough mate, as much as Moyes tenure got the ball rolling in terms of terrible decisions and ripping up what wa sin place I personally think his successor did more damage.
