David Moyes on MOTD

[MattyRangers]

Has Moyes won anything at Everton? Recall them being in the Cup final against the scum and thats it isnt it?

Maybe not but sucess is relative isn't it? Ie (completely theoretically), Arry keeping us up this year, then taking us to a 10th place finish next year, then a 9th place finish the year after and reaching a couple of cup finals along the way, he wouldn't have won a single trophy - yet he would have been hugely successful. So, yes, I see what you're saying in that he hasn't actually won anything, but for a club like Everton (ie very tight budget and having to sell players in order to buy) to be competing with clubs like Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham etc and battling for a 4th place finish year on year is, IMO, a hugely successful reign for Moyes. I think he is a top manager and will replace Fergie at Utd - just my guess.

I think Moyes is one of the top 5 managers in the league and has made Everton a solid Premier League side. I'd say his success is getting Everton into Europe - which I seem to recall they did a few years ago - I just wondered if he had won anything to get there - not digging the bloke out.

Oh right, apologies thought you were tryna get at him being no good :sorry:

I think you are right in fairness mate, can't recall them winning anything.

[Shepherds Mush]

Yeah, the opposite mate - got a lot of respect for Moyes doing what hes done without splashing any cash

That's the real problem with the premiership and why at the end of the day, it really is not that interesting. I do not think there is a real chance of a team like ours (and probably 16 of the other teams) in the premiership of ever winning it. The best you can do is get into Europe.

I agree.
Starting to look like a parallel of the Scottish Premier league. Not good, not good at all.
