I thought about that the other day. I have no idea why this isn't the common way it's handled in England. Works perfectly well in about everywhere else.

As is the idea that SAF left behind a squad that is incapable of winning games.
Come on now. You know the answer to that question.
Wonder if some of those at board level are regretting the 6 year contract rather than just a 3/4 year one. I still think its a good weapon Moyes can use on those players, he's here for the long haul and if they don't perform the consequences will be that they'll be out the club. Unfortunately its not working so far.
Because even then we knew Patrice Evra was on the downward spiral and we didn't have a competent backup, that Rio was getting past his best, that we had wingers what couldn't cross the road nevermind the ball. The midfield was a major complaint from everyone last season. Winning the league actually masked a lot of these problems.
Catch a grip man. You can't blindly follow a man because he was given a position he was under qualified for.
I don't think he can turn it around now, no, or at least I'm not sure. I also don't think other managers would be able to turn it around now either when so much is going against him, my point was I'm not sure better managers would be in this position in the first place.
Sir Alex hasn't finished outside the top 3 for 20 years. YEARS. I think it is giving Moyes a huge benefit of the doubt and a disservice to Sir Alex to assume he'd be in the same position.
Sir Alex knows this is a quality squad. It's very good and probably not as good as he thinks it is, but I think he really rates this bunch. I do wonder, despite his high opinion of Moyes, how he feels about the group of players he left behind for the new manager doing so badly and being criticized so much.
I am worried that he's being rather too quick dismantling you. Might not last long enough to see it through.
4 defeats in the last 6 home games. At this rate he won't even get another transfer window to muck up!
I'd love to see him replace Ferdinand, Evra, Fabio Anderson, Giggs, Rooney, maybe vidic and whatever wingers gets offloaded in one summer.
No, given some of the horrendous injuries he's had to contend with in the past.
Sack Moyes Sell Young
And this is why he shouldn't be here more than a season. Bad results happen, but his tolerance of mediocrity is anathema to Manchester United. He's continually said that United have played well when we've been awful. He has no ambition.
Could help if the owners could spend some fecking money. Even Liverpool spend more than us and they don't even got CL money.
Shame we got owners with no money to back the club.

So the year before when we had to rely on Welbeck and Hernandez was OK. Of course he would struggle without Rooney and RVP.
And I agree with that. Someone on this forum said that it's always ideal to take over from someone who has failed. I think that might really ring true big time if we let Moyes go.
I don't think he did leave the squad in as healthy a state as he wanted to do.
It also hasn't helped that most of the big signings during the Glazer years have ultimately failed, for various reasons (Anderson, Nani, Hargreaves, Berbatov).
Is that quote really true. I mean, seriously, is it?
Simples
The question was would he be in the same position I.e. 8th. Not struggling.
I can't seriously believe anyone would think we would be
Last season RVP went 10 games without scoring and Rooney battled with fitness issues yet we still managed to scrape a few wins.
No way in hell. You only need to his track record as evidence, nothing else is relevant. He's faced crazy injury crisis' too.
And Rooney has been fit almost the whole season. Not sure why he's mentioned as a reason for Moyes being in this position. One game here and there really.
The only thing that can help Moyes win trophies are if we get new owners who wants to spend money.
This is so Hodgsoneraeaque.
I want to just to fecking.... Nah, you're too nice of a poster. At least you must be enjoying this.
We were much better in the season when berba was the topscorer, rooney was injured/shit for the majority off it and we had no RVP.
Ok we have been dreadful this season but we are only 5 points behind the all conquering Liverpool.
I don't want Moyes to go and will give him more time personally but I don't understand these people who get high and mighty because Fergie recommended him? People are entitled to their opinion, if they don't like him fair enough. It's not like they've not got valid reasons we've been awful. Fergie also rated Kleberson and Djemba Djemba he's capable of making a mistake and maybe Moyes was one of them? When people come up with stupid comments fair enough but from some comments I've seen from the "Moyes out" people a lot of them do make sense.
I'm prepared to give him time like I said as I do think it's hugely unfair to not at least give someone a chance, it does need to improve soon though. If not there is a valid case the job may be to big for him after all.

He left a squad containing the champions, one of the strongest defences in the league, one of the best keepers in the country, one of the best strike forces around and a massive warchest in the bank for transfers. It was hardly a dilapidated one bedroom flat with the floor missing and roof caved in off Homes Under the Hammer
The manager hasn't been great but the players need to shoulder a huge portion of the blame.
We spent 27 million on Marouine Fellaini this summer.
We bought rvp and Kagawa last season.
We once bought Hargreaves, Anderson Nani and tevez (loan) in the same summer.
This excuse fails.
