I think Moyes is a great choice and I think he'll do very well here.
Moyes To Succeed Ferguson Anyone?

The overreaction to Moyes is crazy. He's a good manager. It's David Moyes not Tony Pulis, ffs.
He's the safe option but I think he's a good one. When you hire someone abroad you run the risk of them failing to adapt or not adapting quickly enough and getting left behind. He's good in the transfer window too which is a plus sign. Might bring Fellaini with him which would be great news.
People need to give him a chance if it is him. It's hard enough trying to replace Sir Alex without the fans bitching about your appointment because you're not a certain Portuguese troublemaker who'll bring success at a massive cost then feck off in 2 or 3 seasons maximum.
There's going to be a lot of people looking rather silly when Moyes retains your PL title next year

On a side note, what a bloody opportunity this is for Moyes. fecking huge moment in his life.
Very very underwhelmed tbh.
Moyes has done a very good job at Everton, and I have great respect for that. But we're basically replacing the most succesful manager ever, with a man that has never won a trophy. That scares me.

Its the typical reaction of a football supporter. Get up in arms over something and then when the disaster never materializes, they admit they were wrong and nobody could have imagined it going so well.
Well thats not what I wanted to hear!
Don't worry, there is hope yet. I once predicted Danny Cadamarteri would be the next big thing in English football.
That's the worrying part for me. Yes, Moyes has done a very good job at Everton and that can't be forgotten, but when you consider how successful some other managers are, I'm just very wary about him stepping into something that could be too big for him.
He is the luckiest man alive. He really has won the lottery here.

Now the respected @DuckerTheTimes saying Everton's David Moyes will be appointed Man Utd manager in the next 24 hours.

Whoever we get should get the support from us fans.
If SAF and Sir Bobby are having a say in who comes next then We have to trust their judgement.

An excellent choice and will make the naysayers eat their words.
That put a smile on my face!
The thing is, you need a winning mentality at a club like United. Does Moyes have that? Well no.

Yet they share something in common. Neither have won a trophy as a manager.
You call it the "safe option". I think it's a huge, huge risk. He's got no track record of having the winning mentality, no experience at all. Either way it's going to be one hell of a rollercoaster in the new few seasons whoever is in charge. I don't envy the next manager that's for sure.
To be honest, Moyes would be perfect as "The guy who came after the legend" just to try and steady the ship until we appoint someone who could realistically have a successful career as United manager both in the league and in europe. Bu I'd be very surprised if we were competitive in the champions league in the next couple of seasons
If he's appointed then its time to get behind him.
Spot on.
done deal according to many journos on Twitter.
The Times making a big splash for Moyes:

Could we please not make other threads about him without having something official. I know that the thread will be huge, but it is ridiculous creating new threads without new info. There have been two threads blocked in the last 2 hours.
When I woke up this morning, I was not ready to finish the day with Moyes as manager of United. Hopefully he will prove a lot of us wrong. I don't want him, but I've always put 100% faith in Fergie's decisions over near enough everything, and in one of the most important choices in his career, if he's satisfied with Moyes than we should be so too, or at least have faith that he's considered all the scenario's we have and many more. Either way, as long as we aren't like Chelsea and Liverpool who are super-spaz's, Moyes should have our total support.
If Moyes comes here, we'll never be able to find someone to buy our rejects.
This won't end well.
i will give him the same backing i always gave ferguson, support to the hilt whilst we're winning stuff, then defecting to other teams that are winning stuff when we're not.
and well said.According to Independent, most of our coaching staff is staying. So that's good news.
This is wht SAF should never have retired!!
I hate today all ready. feck, life after SAF is gonna be so hard.
Ferguson is one of the guys who's nominated Moyes. I think Sir Alex has shown he knows a thing or two about football. So trust him and give the guy a chance.
I really hope we get Laudrup as a Moyes replacement. I just hope it's not Roberto Martinez.
Other than a League Cup I don't see what Moyes or Everton are expected to win. And if he'd won the LC people on here would be saying "all he's won is a fecking League Cup!".
How much "winning mentality" is required for Moyes to be accepted by the majority? He's taken that club as far as they can go.
What happens to Mike Phelan?
heck, it's like hearing a respected tv star has done some lurid crimes in the past.
First you laugh it off and think no chance, then you hear more people saying it, and you think, oh no, there might be something in it, then you hear everyone saying it, and you have the sad acceptance that it's happening

Laudrup is a fair call
I dont like Jose.. Other than that I dont care who it is.
He hangs up his hotpants.
It would be sweet if Solskjaer would come in as his assistant or something. Highly doubt it would happen though.
