10 managers fired this season and it's still not over. I think it's a disturbing trend. Giving managers time usually works out for teams, although there has to be a red line you shall not tolerate when it comes to failures. Moyes crossed it a long time ago.

As a Liverpool fan it's annoying to see the whole "Rodgers finished 7th and was given a chance" argument. Rodgers took over when we was in trouble, stabilised us, finishing similar places we had been the past few season, now look. Moyes on the other hand took over when United were 1st and arguably the best team in the world, now look. If anything Rodgers done the opposite to Moyes.

Why the fuck do you think United's football was going to get better Gary by sticking with Moyes? There was nothing stopping Moyes from trying out good football and a developed approach to tactics this season. He was always going to continue on with the jurassic tactics and negative approach to games that he always had. The #moyesin crowd had no argument. To want him to stay was blind faith ignoring the realism and facts that the man was not going to adapt to a big club.

upset because his bro might be jobless come the end of the season

Its not about players. Heck during SAF time even ashley young looked like a decent player..

the only reason sir alex picked moyes was he didn't want the next manager to be successful so he could get more credit for his time at united.

Neville speaking sense as usual

Shouldn't of been sacked, better than the last 3 guys who have followed him.

When Fergie 1st joined Utd he struggled but he was given time so I think Moyes should of been given time.

Neville is right mangers are treated so badly like Malky at Cardiff! I'm a Cardiff City fan

i like gary neville because whenever i see him, he always tells his true opinions

As much as I enjoyed watching United struggle for once. I feel that it's unfair to sack Moyes after such a short time. It would've made more sense if United were even worse off than they are right now.

Gary is right, managers in general should be give time to prove themselves

united fans are deluded if they think they'll get klopp as their next manager it will most likely be van gaal and i dont think even he'll be able to get them out of this mess

The players he had are not good enough anchelotte mourinho simeone could have all been in charge and struggled with that squad of so called players.

I'm upset because if Man U get a good manager next season they'll be better

7 and a half years later and united are back in the same situation 🤣

This is the most competitive league in the world. Not only there are 6 teams fighting for champions league football every year, but even the middle table teams can afford top class footballers, so you have to react quickly if you're failing, or it'll take years to bounce back- as the case of liverpool shows.

Rooney and RVP are the only decent players at Man U. Moyes had no chance.

FFS What is this fad of sacking managers with a few games in hand ? Poor decisions from the Board down to the players. With Moyes out alot of the players need to be shown the door.

Man United had weaknesses last season these weren't dealt with in the summer. That's either Moyes fault or someone above him. They surely can't have expected Moyes to walk in and make Fergie's team win the league. Fergie got what he did out of those players because his word was law and young or new players knew there was no messing with the longest serving manager in football. Fergie also still had Scholes and Giggs available to bring seniority to Man United. I had hoped United would stick with Moyes and show they were different to other clubs and maybe in the summer remove the weak links and bring in something different, something Moyes would work with. Chelsea's success with turning over managers has been due to constantly bringing in new players but they've paid the price in terms of premier league successes and media speculation. If United want Chelsea style success they can join the hiring, firing and spending game but if they want to continue their legacy they need to stand by their next manager and fund a rebirth not a revolution.

i hated neville as a player, (arsenal fan) but now i think hes my favourite pundit

Totally agree

It's all about business, selling shirts and so on. The fans don't understand that.

I heard he was making them watch videos of what he was doing at everton :/

Good. They need to keep changing manager.

You are right gary but,,not if things go that bad,being an lfc fan id love him to stay his 6 years lol he would never walk alone for that

Managers should be given more time but I disagree with Gary in the idea that players have to take responsibility because ultimately it is a manager's job to motivate his team to get results. Your players won't be motivated if you blame them for every single poor result. This however makes it even more difficult for new managers because they have to get to know new players and it is very hard to motivate players you do not know. That's what has happened with Moyes and this has lead to poor performances and a sacking. The idea is that managers should build a successful team and if they are not allowed to do this then success of English teams will be poor. Less and less emphasis will be placed on young players and therefore we will generate fewer English talents and have to buy in more and more foreign players. In my opinion the FA should rectify this by imposing a managerial transfer window between seasons giving managers a chance to develop their squad throughout the season and therefore protecting managers against these types of sackings.

plz come back moyes!

I don't think italian football is struggling because they keep changing managers.

He should have had the chance to stay longer but if he hasn't won trophies with top top players like Rooney welbeck Hernandez De gea then you will get sacked RVP was injured but should have scored more goals at the start of the season he hasn't got the best out of mata which is the record signing for United which if you don't get the best out of your best players there will be a massive problem

Ferguson went 3 season without winning anything when he first started. He also finished in 11th place the first season he was in charged; the seasons before that, united was floating between 3-4 but they were winning minor trophies. I'm not saying that Moyes was a great manager but if Ferguson was given so much time, moyes deserved at least 2 seasons.

As a United fan personally I think sacking Moyes was the correct decision. he is a nice bloke but clearly was way out of his depth. many people compare him to brendon rogers last season and where he's brought liverpool now all because they gave him time. what they don't realise is rogers arrived at liverpool who were rock bottom and destabilized and although had a slow start built them slowly and put a string of decent performances in and turned it around. Moyes arrived to a team that just blitzed the league and won it by 11 points and im sorry but getting old or not players do not loose that much form in just a couple of months when was the last time you saw any top team win the league and then drop drastically to mid table in a few months that comes down to poor coaching and management. his tactics were medieval and he always never seemed to have a plan B or C during matches. also the fact when united were loosing he always looked dejected and slumped on his seat. you cant do that as a manager. if you are loosing you should be on the touchline barking orders and encouraging your players to keep fighting not sitting in the dugout with your arms folded. im not even going to go into the background staff such as steve round they should never have been appointed in the first place again another key factor in uniteds decline. a final thing to say is that moyes never got to know this team. sky reported he changed his starting 11 over 50 times. he should have believed in his players and been more consistent with his lineups especially with the defence. look at chelsea for example terry and cahill have started the past 10 games that is consistant. anyway rant over I thank moyes for giving the job a shot but it was a job you were not cut out for and I wish him well in his future endeavors.

Brendan Rodgers and Ferguson were given time cause they came into sides that were caught in decadence and had to stabilise them, establish foundations and start to grow. David Moyes took charge of the enligsh champions PLUS Fellaini & Mata + Januzaj. It's an unfair, sneaky argument to compare Moyes' situation to Rodgers or Ferguson's.

How ironic

the only thing worth watching is De Gea And Januzaj FC the only bright light this season for Manchester United FC

7 years on we still hate moyes

One things for sure, if van gaal comes in he won't take no shit, if they don't perform he will not hesitate to keep them off his team, he demands respect and will sell them if his requirements are not met. Take zlatan at Ajax for an example, got cheeky to him one week later he was at juventus.

"The United way" turns out to be the same way as everyone else.

Gary is right giv him a fukin chance

He was helping man utd succeed ywna

Rodgers was given time and look at Liverpool FC now top of the tree YNWA

oh gary i agree. --arsenal fan

Surely when ManU signed Moyes who had no experience in managing big name clubs with no experience in Champions league, they must have looked at long term team building with 7 years contract. If they wanted a quick result, they should have signed Mourinho, Van gaal etc They can only blame themselves

i have a feeling mourinho may go to united, most of the team isn't good enough but they should still be doing better

I think both Moyes and the players should get blame for the decline; Moyes is not used to handle a big club such as Man U, but I think he is a good manager who knows what he's doing, but incompetent in the transfer market. Juan Mata isn't really a find, Juan Mata was seeked by big clubs waaay before Moyes became manager, he just had to dig in the treasure chest. I don't think Moyes would ever adapt to the club at all, and Man U deserves an experienced manager such as Van Gaal who doesn't bow down to out-of-form players and gives Hernández and Welbeck playtime, players who are actually decent and still fairly young with a lot of potential. Fans should also be able to criticize Ferguson for picking Moyes and not always worshipping him like some sort of diety.

whats going on with the "NO" handshake at 00:58, i take it moyes doesn,t like him.

Grate

Wayne Rooney--£250,00per week, RVP--£175,00 per week, Juan Mata £150,00 per week. Pay me that kind of money and I would walk through walls for the team--are they??

"the chosen one" the most ridiculous banner in the history of football ever

Why is Gary receiving hate? The professional side of him says Moyes deserved more time (as he was given a 5-6 year contract) But the fan in him says that the performances were poor and the results were even worse so perhaps he had to go.

spot on by gary. moyes should have been given time to build up his own squad and get them to play the football he wants them to play. he inherited a very average squad to say the least. after he 'rebuilds', then he can be judged. look at brendan rodgers at liverpool. he was given time. he built up his own squad, got them to play the football he wants them to play and they're going to win the league now. remember how shit they were when rodgers first came in? now look at them.

It took Alex Ferguson 5 years to win a trophy these days managers are not given another time for some clubs its win a trophy your sacked

And today, another one has bit the dust.

How funny. His managerial tenure at united ended at Everton hahahah

Sorry Neville u just worried about ur bro.

Rally hope moyes get another club ASAP... Then he can buy fellani of us

Its not just results. Clueless substitutions and hiding in the dugout when we are losing didnt help him.

They gave him too much time, he should never have got the job....

Should of left sacking him till the end of the 2015-16 season.... >.

ManU and Milan have a shitty season this season.

Ferguson new united were on a downfall even thow they won league he knew moyes was doing well at everton and was the next best scott manager alex knew he Wouldn't be able to manage them players

Chelsea fans,Liverpool fans,Arsenal fans,Man City fans are all sad for loss for Man U's loss :'(

English football lost it's soul the day BSkyB got involved.

I do feel sorry for Moyes but he had a giant roll to take over and personally I don't think he was ever the man for the job, You don't see any big clubs in the top 4 of the prem Signing a managers who has never won Anything so why did united!!!

Moyes been the victim of a Media witchhunt from Day 1 He wasnt glamorous enough for them and he wasnt given enough time or money , the players have been shit and they wouldve got better next season

Alex inherited a drinking club and Moyes inherited the Champions. Big difference

Feel sorry for moyes

#DiCanioIn

I can understand the sacking of Moyes, Yes the leak was embarrassing for the club, but regardless, Moyes had to go. Now here is what fucking baffles me..and if anybody has a genuine answer, im all eyes and ears.. Why is Louis Van Gaal Favourite to be the next manager?

A wonderful day. Truly the lifting of a curse.

you'll always be a legend and you're top pundit now g-nev, but you're talking utter nonsense with this one.the facts show that he just wasn't good enough.

if you want team spirit/its never a good idea to publicly announce Rooney is on £ 300 k a week.Moyes didnt fail,the players failed him,but moving on utd have made a smart move in giving Giggs a go,i would go step further a bring a holy trinity scholes and g neville as his assistants.Sometimes the answers to all your problems can be staring u in the face but u cant see it,these 3 know the club inside and out,and they will quickly know who plays for the club and who plays for themself,s.

without Van persie last season united wouldve finished lower than 7th and they have practically been without Van Persie all season ( even when he's played )

MOYES FOREVER

And what annoys me is how he tries to make you feel sorry for Moyes, he's on swuillions and will get a squillion pound payout for doing fuck all Gary!!!

If Moyes had shown any tactical,overall football understanding in his tactics,line ups any hint that he knows what his doing then it would have been a different story but he didn't have a fooking clue about anything...The man just wawed his hands on the sidelines and didn't try to develope a good relationship with the players..He fooking bashed them at post match interviews for no reason..I mean how the hell did that idiot think players would response to that and his middle age tactics,coaching that only took their game backwards while at the same time being some slave master..

Gary Neville being butthurt. Nothing new there. Come on United

Your no longer Champs of England anymore United!, You will never win anything again! not for another 2 more seasons.

thats how the Glazers are they don't like to be embarrass glazers will do anything to win

Gary neville has always been a tosser

Moyes was the architect of his own demise. Promoting guys like Neville and Giggs ahead of their ability was a mistake. Giggs in particular was a grave error: a player can not be loyal to the manager as a coach and still remain a player. I have no doubt the moment Moyes looked like he was going to flounder Giggs looked after himself and his position within the clique: with one eye on the future. That is natural and obviously the only outcome of appointing at 20+ year serving player to the coaching staff without first requiring them to retire from playing and so removing them from the 'brosphere'. Let's be brutal here: Giggs could never be trusted to be your 'man in the dressing room' when he wanted the job for himself and likely had little respect for someone who hadn't even won a trophy. Let alone been appointed (quite obviously) as Fergusons's Jonah. Allowing the better coaches who knew the club and the players backwards to leave was also a mistake. I firmly believe there is a lot of truth to what Meulensteen said about how the coaches pretty much ran the day to day under Ferguson towards the end. Allowing all the knowledge and experience to depart with Ferguson was insane. Maybe they wanted to go? Who knows. I'd have fought tooth and nail to keep the entire structure intact myself! If there was one or two bad eggs or egos to cull, fine, but removing the whole first team coaching setup adapted to winning and getting the maximum performances out of ageing and/or mediocre squad players and with the confidence of those players was bonkers. Insane would be replacing them with 2nd rate coaches who don't know the club, the players, or the traditions. He should have kept it stum: at least for the first transitional season. I don't think Moyes understood that at a big club you need to delegate and that personality from the manager is not what is needed. Indeed the more hands on you are, the more your mistakes, flaws and vanity shows. You need to step back and show yourself only at the right times and in the right light. Certainly attempting to be a manager, assistant manager and first team coach is not the way to go. At a smaller club, sure, but at a big club you need exquisite attention to detail and you NEED top class specialist coaches who can deliver results. Moyes clearly didn't inspire the players to perform with his dour tactical philosophy and that was suicidal at a club like Utd. You don't go out to get a draw or win 1-0 at Old Trafford. Its better to lose 5-4 and look at the ageing defence than win by a goal or draw (losing to anyone in the Premier league except City or Chelsea should be unthinkable at home). Even if you think that a narrow defeat or a draw is a realistic result actually going out and playing for it from kick off is insane: the negativity undermines belief and belief is what drove United on to that title the season before as much as ability. Basic psychology. How could Moyes fail to appreciate that? Millions of pounds in salary, surely he's got to have the basics of sport psychology nailed down?? He clearly didn't know what to do with RVP or the midfield. Yes, he was let down by the numpty handling transfers in the summer and didn't get who he wanted and had to lump it at the last minute with a player (Fellaini) I doubt he really wanted/needed. However, that does not excuse the pre-historic tactics. I called it during the pre-season when he had them playing every single ball down the flanks and asking them to cross remorselessly when you could see that the players wanted to cut inside and/or run with the ball at goal. They looked better when they played more balls through the middle of the park towards the end but by then it was too late: he'd already lost the dressing room. Playing 4 number 10's (and asking them all to play long/diagonal balls!) who were all running in to each other's zones and causing havoc between themselves and the headless chickens Cleverly/Carrick and Rafael (I have never seen a worse player in a United shirt) was painful to watch. If a player does not adhere to your tactical plan, you drop him. Van Gaal won't tolerate Rooney roaming all over the place. He won't tolerate full backs who go AWOL. Why did Moyes? Moyes will feel hard done by but in truth I don't believe he was. He was given a full season, including pre-season, and he didn't adapt. Those saying 'he needed time' are confused as to what Manchester United is. It is a billion pound business and you can't expect time to learn how to run a billion pound business. You should know already! I'm sorry for the man, as it must have been hard on his nerves and his self belief, but ultimately he was not the right appointment.

MOYES OUT

nothing made me think that he was going to get better Gary. he destroyed United and he is nowhere near the style of modern football that we've seen from Rodgers and Martinez this season. Moyes dosent deserve the patience. I like to listen to Garys opinion but I dont agree with him this time.

Yes david moyes has been sacked!

What a fossil!!

Its not all bad, since Moyes sacking Man U have climbed $100mill on Wall Street so I guess the Glazier's well pleased.
