Dokko Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Balague is such a fucking weirdo. He's a slightly more eloquent Spanish Lee Ryder ffs What a cunt. Drunk on his own ego and dining off a reputation he once had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Moyes must kick himself for leaving Everton. Job for life there. Still he will be a very rich man from his last two dismissals. Wonder what other progression can you totally miss expectations and end up with more money than what you would if you hit them? I'd still have him here like. He's a much better manager the what we've got, but he's probably still not good enough. Agree but it would have been nigh on impossible to say no to Man U once they asked him. In hindsight he should have stayed put but can understand totally why he gave it a go. Didn't work out but it shouldn't be used as a stick to beat him with too much imo. He was always on a hiding to nothing following Ferguson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was always on a hiding to nothing following Ferguson. It's still a poisoned job manure. Unsure of what he's done or not done over in Spain but for any English manager to go to a top division and succeed is rare, so rare you've got to go back two decades for a decent example (unless I'm forgetting someone (schteve doesn't count IMO even though it was a great victory to win the Dutch league, it's not Spain, Italy or Germany)) But two bad experiences on the bounce is hard to take and may have knocked his confidence and his approach. His next job which will either be back in the prem or Scottish based will make or break the rest of his career. He'd be best trying to get yhe Celtic job it's next up. Build himself back up .

STM Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 What did Swansea fans think of Monk? After all, the general consensus is that we should have stuck with Pardew. I've learned my lesson on ignoring fans from other clubs, perhaps they are not convinced either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 it would be really shit if Swansea sack Monk imo Yeah, it would be. Unfortunately that's the nature of the PL these days, no one has any patience. Can't say I blame the owners as much as I do the nature of the business...they're looking at losing hundreds of billions by being relegated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 There have been rumblings that things were not quite right behind the scenes since early in the season. I have read the odd piece where there has been a hint here or there but nothing specific has been said. It was the same with Laudrup and in the end there were some well-founded concerns about him that justified Swansea getting rid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I thought Moyes did well at Everton. The following famous stat notwithstanding. The poor record of David Moyes-coached teams against the Premier League's big names appears to have followed him from Everton to Manchester United. Played 43, lost 27, drawn 16, won zero. That was Moyes's away record against Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool during his time as Everton manager. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-09-23/moyes-record-under-scrutiny-following-city-humiliation/4975340 No wins in 43 suggests there was systematically wrong there. On several occasions, they must have faced teams with suspensions or injuries or tiredness from CL or some other weakening circumstances. The reason I still rate him though is that he set up several defensively strong teams on a shoestring. He must have a really good eye for defenders. Weir, Yobo, Lescott, Distin, Jageilka, Baines, Coleman.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the directors wanted him to have a more experienced man around too, but he said no. Can see why he wouldn't want someone lurking in the wings tbh. Christ he got them to 8th...Swansea! Not convinced he's the second coming of Shankly but surely the lad has earned a bit of leeway for one bad spell? Then again it's hundreds of millions at stake...ridiculous money putting ridiculous pressure and leading to ridiculous expectations. Modern footy ugh.

joeyt Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Siggy has gone off the boil massively which has f***ed them. Yup, with Montero and Gomis also being awful recently. When fit and firing their first XI is very strong but their backups are really poor. Barrow is absolutely terrible.

Weir, Yobo, Lescott, Distin, Jageilka, Baines, Coleman.... Aye, this is very bad. But it's one issue, that means he's not a top level manager but could do a good job for the majority of PL sides. I'm sure Pardew's record is much better.Think he beat the lot of them at least twice us the exception of Arsenal. With Palace and us he's beaten Liverpool 4 times. But Moyes is a better manager than Pardew, easily so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
