If you'd have kept Moyes for as long as Ole has had, I reckon he'd have won something.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
not quite so sure...think he lost respect from pretty much everyone in the dressing room when telling Rio and Vidic to watch videos of Jagielka defending... pretty hard to come back from that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That has been confirmed by Rio himself as being a myth though to be fair...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
to be fair even though Moyes was on a hiding to nothing after replacing fergie and i didnt think he was the guy for the job i always backed him, as i did with LVG.
unlike quite a few on here ( which isnt a knock) ive lived through midtable seasons where the only bit of real excitement was the odd cup run.
quite a few have only ever known success under fergie and what has happened post fergie...but ive always backed the team and manager while he has been in the position... with the exception being Jose
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t think anyone is really knocking Ole for the lack of success on its own. It’s the mix of terrible football with a lack of success.
People can handle great football with no success or terrible football with success (or ideally great football with success).
But when there is a lack of both it’s hard to warm to the appointment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
thats the problem... they cant.
if we played breathtaking football week after week and didnt win anything for 5 years people would be calling for the head of whoever was in charge.. you know that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Perhaps after 5 years. It would help if we had 5 weeks of breathtaking football rather than coming out of home games against an average Everton side feeling lucky we didn’t lose after making the same mistakes we’ve been making throughout Oles tenure

the problem is we do not have the players in the centre of the park to play that kind of football week in and week out.
as much as we would all love to see it football is a results game first and foremost.
we are stuck with Mcfred because we have to play both to cover for each others deficiencies.
Matic doesnt have the legs to play there on a regular basis either.
i dont think for one minute Ole doesnt see it as a problem area and had west ham not wanted a crazy fee for rice i think he would have been signed in the summer.

We've had plenty of time and money to buy a much needed CM. Last summer we bought a back up ACM and 2 youth RWs for £55m, the summer before that we spent £50m on AWB!?
Also Ole won't walk, and he shouldn't have to. He's been hired and recently given a 3 year extention. It's up to the club to get rid if he isn't good enough.

If you'd have kept Moyes for as long as Ole has had, I reckon he'd have won something.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
not quite so sure...think he lost respect from pretty much everyone in the dressing room when telling Rio and Vidic to watch videos of Jagielka defending... pretty hard to come back from that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That has been confirmed by Rio himself as being a myth though to be fair...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
to be fair even though Moyes was on a hiding to nothing after replacing fergie and i didnt think he was the guy for the job i always backed him, as i did with LVG.
unlike quite a few on here ( which isnt a knock) ive lived through midtable seasons where the only bit of real excitement was the odd cup run.
quite a few have only ever known success under fergie and what has happened post fergie...but ive always backed the team and manager while he has been in the position... with the exception being Jose

I don’t think anyone is really knocking Ole for the lack of success on its own. It’s the mix of terrible football with a lack of success.
People can handle great football with no success or terrible football with success (or ideally great football with success).
But when there is a lack of both it’s hard to warm to the appointment.
