As the countdown to next season begins, one of the biggest questions is how David Moyes will adapt to life in the hot seat at new club Manchester United.
It would be fair to say that England’s hopes of achieving any success, relative or otherwise at next year’s World Cup will be heavily reliant on Manchester United players.
With this in mind I wonder whether David Moyes will adopt a
For a game that involves just 22 players and a ball, it is amazing how many moments of comedy can occur on a football pitch. Players falling over, referees getting hit by the ball, incredible open goal misses, diving attempts and many other ridiculous occurrences. It may seem a little childish to laugh at such things, but most of us just can't help it, especially when it happens to the rich and famous superstars. The bigger the name, the better we feel when they attempt a pass or shot and it all goes horribly wrong!
With recent stories speculating that Sir Alex, who is set to retire at the end of the season, contacted Carlo Ancelotti to succeed him but declined and asked David Moyes instead, I wondered about Ancelotti’s intentions.
As we draw near to the summer transfer window, media speculation surrounds players and coaches, here are some of the names mentioned that have moved or could be moving.
Just when David Moyes thought everything was going so smoothly, he’s got his dream job, millions to spend on new players, a fat new pay rise, the poor bloke must have had quite a shock when he woke up this morning.
The Express reports that United will now have to “vie with
Sunday it really hit me. This is actually goodbye, Sir Alex Ferguson is no longer Manchester United manager after their next game. It also hit me that the man taking over from SFA, doesn't really deserve it.
After Wayne Rooney handed in a transfer request in October 2010, before hastily changing his mind a few days later to sign a new five year deal, most of us presumed that we would be witnessing the striker hanging up his boots at the end of his career at Old Trafford. The situation has changed quite dramatically in the past few days, as he was left out of the squad for Sir Alex Ferguson's final home game in charge against Swansea. The boss then informed the media that ‘Wazza’ had once again told the club that he wanted to leave.
We all know what’s happened in football this week regarding the baton of tenure at Manchester United finally being passed on to totally deserving candidate, David Moyes, but it’s the club he’s leaving after eleven years, the third longest reigning manager in the Premier League at the moment, but when the curtain falls on his time at Goodison, who will be the man to take over?
With Sir Alex Ferguson retiring and David Moyes taking his position at Manchester United, we could now see several other top flight managers changing clubs as Everton chairman, Bill Kenwright, tries to appoint the best man to lead The Toffees in the new season. Let's have a look at some of the candidates rumoured to be in the frame to take Moyes' position.
Everton are planning a formal approach to Cardiff City to talk to Malky Mackay about succeeding David Moyes at Goodison Park.
Jose Mourinho’s prospective return to Chelsea has been one of the worst kept secrets in football for some time now. A big part of his allure, aside from the mountain of trophies, is his post-match interviews, and the dignity he often displays (eye-poking aside).
David Moyes’ defection from Everton to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson at Man United has set off a game of musical chairs that the world of football has been waiting for. Amidst all the hyperbole surrounding Fergie’s retirement and succession, it is easy to forget that another long era, albeit one not even half his length, is at an end. So who will end up at Everton when the music stops?
In the aftermath of the news of Sir Alex Ferguson's retirment, and subsequent announcemnt that David Moyes will take over, the spotlight now turns to Everton as they search for a new manager.
