Knew it wouldn't take long...

We're all fuming apparently. ;D

 

EVERY time they sign someone or get a new manager, we're always FUMING, SEETHING or RATTLED. Apparently.

 

I'm actually impressed they managed to finally get a rated manager. Not that I'd want him here, I've said it before as well, but for them he should be perfect. Unambitious, happy to plod along efficiently around mid-table.

I don't think so. Moyes is comfortable in a working class British environment without big expectations. He's not going to pull up any trees but he knows how to build solid, basic teams who defend well enough to avoid relegation.

He's potentially an upgrade imho. If all goes well for Moyes then he has a higher glass ceiling than Allardyce but there's a slightly bigger chance him taking them down imho.

 

I just couldn't see them getting relegated under FS at any point whereas I don't think it's unthinkable for them now.

 

That said, I think this coming season would be the riskiest for them given he's had no pre-season, won't get many (any?) of the signings he wants and won't know his squad that well. If he manages to do a decent job this season then he'd be a very steady appointment imho.

 

No way I'd have been 100% happy with him at our place though and, of the two, I'm delighted we've got Rafa.

He's a good appointment for them. The best a club like sunderland could hope for anyway. OK so he was hopeless when given the chance at a big club and failed abroad but he did a very decent job at Everton which gave him the chance to manage Man Utd but unfortunately for him he was way out of his depth there. At sunderland 17th is success and I don't think he'll have any problems achieving that.

 

I'll be forever grateful to him for helping us to our only win at Old Trafford in 40 odd years.

Aye true. Penshaw monument gets lit up and the players do a lap of honour when they finish 17th, just like last season. Absolutely no pressure on him at all. Having said that, they've turned on every manager they've had for the last decade (apart from Fat Sam, but given more time they would have turned on him as well) so It's only a matter of time before Moyes isn't a massive lads fan anymore and is probably a mag.

Good appointment and I think his style of play is oft times underrated as being draconian/typical British hardnut bollocks. Certainly the expansiveness depends on his signings and squad though, for every Fellaini/Gravesen there's an Osman/Arteta.

 

I don't expect they'll move beyond the 11th-15th bracket but no doubt that's enough to temper their fans paedophilia supporting gesticulations.

This year is huge for them. Given that Moyes comes in with three weeks left until the season starts, no new signings and their pre-season so far having been covered in doubt regarding their managers future, it's hardly the best preparation. Doubt Moyes will be able to do too much with them this year, but if he keeps them up, there'll be an opportunity to kick on from there.
