David Moyes A Wanted Man
Bookmark and Share

E-MAIL From Blue Echo

Whenever a Premiership managerial vacancy becomes available David Moyes instantly becomes the bookies favourite.

The media only weeks ago were predicting Moyes to succeed Alex Ferguson at Manchester United once Fergie retires but now as a vacant sign appears on Harry Redknapp's office door the media swings their attention once more to David Moyes who seems to be well respected by his fellow managers in the game.

Recently rumours have circulated that Moyes will stand down should Baines be sold and should there be any truth in that then a lot of Evertonians myself included wouldn't blame him as he must be agonisingly frustrated not being able to build a team to his liking.

Ten years at one club as a manger in today's game is one hell of an achievement. But as much as he has failed to produce silverware, our football club has become stable in the top flight. He is also admired and respected by fans from all over who constantly tell us that our gaffer has worked wonders on a shoestring budget.

His dealings in the transfer market have been very shrewd and certainly picked up some bargains along the way with Cahill, Arteta, Pienaar and most recently Jelavic spring to mind, that is  to name a few where as other clubs have spent a ridiculous sum on players who are not worthy of their fee.

I personally would be devastated to see him depart Everton FC but during his time in football he must have personal ambitions and wonder if he can cut it elsewhere.

Should the day come then we need a replacement and I for one have never thought who I would like to succeed Moyes should that day arise.

To have to prove yourself all over again at a new club is never a thing to look forward to...If Moyes goes to Spurs he will be sacked before January as thats when his season really starts, proof is Evertons results over the last 10 years... Ok he might have some better players at Spurs, so really it shouldn't be a big job for him to fix Spurs! They are already a top ten team and have been competing with Everton for that 5th spot over and over again... He will have to do well in Europe and he will need to keep hold of his best players... But I doubt he will leave Everton as he is comfy where he is, he gets a good wage and is best mates with Bill, because he knows Bill wont get anyone as tolerant as Moyes, Any other Manager would have been sacked before January, and any other manager would have walked out on EFC having not been given the funds to build a bigger and better team... So I think its a case of better the Devil you know, for both David and Bill......

Will people stop saying Slaven Bilic? He is only stepping down from the Croatia role after the Euro's because he has signed a contract with Lokomotiv Moscow. Read a paper or a website before saying stupid things. As for Moyesy I ceratinly hope he stays and I believe he will but as others say if he has the rug pulled from under him once again and has to sell his best players to please the banks would you blame him? Regarding the lack of trophies, yes we haven't won one under Moyes, but what have Villa, Sunderland, Newcastle and a number of others won in that time? There are plenty of clubs who have spent a lot more than us and not won a bean, in fact Newcastle even went down. At least we have came close, an FA cup final and league cup and fa cup semi final. I believe spurs have only won one league cup in the last 10 years (I may be wrong on that but I cant remember them winning anything else). Yes we all want a trophy more than anything, but it cant be the only barrometer of success. As Peter, Warrington said Moyes has in a much better place than he found us, lets hope he is given some cash, even a small amount, to improve us further.

Personally if Moyes was to leave I would be sad but would wish him the best for the future. Everton has been remoulded from a regular relegation fight to a European fight. He has not won any silverware but we have come close on numerous occasions. I heard Harry Redknapp say "I leave Spurs in a better position than when I came in as manage.r" Not many of the knockers of Moyes can argue against if he leaves Everton. We are significantly better than when he took the job. But if or when he leaves like every club we will move hopefully for the better. COYB

It looked like Gary Lineker was conducting a job interview live on the BBC last night. I believe Moyes wants to stay and win trophies at Everton, but he knows this is not possible without investment in the team, especially in keeping his star players. To me he seemed to be sending a message out that he has ambitions and if Everton could not match them he may be forced to move on. I'm hoping Bill can scrape together some funds to secure Pienaar (perhaps from the extra BT TV rights money) and convince Moyes to give it a few more years. If there is truth to the rumour he is the heir apparent at Man Utd then he may hold out for that. I'm a bit sceptical about this. Seems like an urban myth to me based on him being Scottish and selling them Rooney / buying Howard, Saha etc...!

I think what Moyes wants to hear is that there will be funds available, even if those funds are from selling a few players, Baines and Felli included. So long as he's allowed to spend what comes in, or even a just a good portion of it, he'll stay. But if we sell and then give the money to the bank, then it's goodbye. And I wouldn't blame him.
