HawK Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Moyes joining Real Sociedad. Just read that. What are they thinking - will he succeed? Nevermind. A one hour old article says Real Sociedad and Moyes did not agree as he was "too expensive" for them. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29976327 ?

Ronaldo Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Pretty sure the subtitle there doesn't translate to 'is too expensive'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 No idea tbh. Sociedad are doing pretty shit though so you good luck to him. Good to see a British manager trying his luck elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Moyes, if given sensible time, will succeed anywhere he goes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 No idea tbh. Sociedad are doing pretty shit though so you good luck to him. Good to see a British manager trying his luck elsewhere. The experience will make him better in the long term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Moyes, if given sensible time, will succeed anywhere he goes. Tend to agree with this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Moyes, if given sensible time, will succeed anywhere he goes. Depends what the terms of succeeding are, in any case I think he'll do well there and wish him well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackM Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 how is this going to work? does he speak Spanish? or will he have a translator with him all the time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Terms of succeeding for Real Sociedad are competing for an European slot. They are smaller than Everton in the EPL, I'm a bit surprised he didn't hold out for a bigger club. That said, I'm pleased that he tried something new, and by having him in Spain.

joeyt Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 how is this going to work? does he speak Spanish? or will he have a translator with him all the time? I'd guess he speaks neither Spanish or Basque Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 how is this going to work? does he speak Spanish? or will he have a translator with him all the time? Wouldn't it just be like a foreign manager coming to the UK? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it just be like a foreign manager coming to the UK? but most of them speak English already, even if its fairly basic. I don't know for sure, but i really doubt Moyes speaks any Spanish (or Basque!) whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Bunch of managers come here without Spanish knowledge and eventually do fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if you were to compare Real Sociedad to an EPL team, would that be Everton? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 He answered that one before you asked it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maze Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 He answered that one before you asked it. Didn't see that, read it way too fast. It's late So Real Sociedad is like Everton. Think Moyes might get them to 10th, then? I don't know if there are many good teams in Spanish football apart from Barca, RM and Atletico Madrid? Apart from the top 3? 4? are the teams pretty even?

They'll be aiming higher than 10th I would've thought given their last few seasons They have lost several of the players that got them there though. Anyway, it's an ambitious appointment for them, certainly means they are aiming for Europe instead of being content with life in midtable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
