Nobody was ever going to have a job following fergie
Should have just got a fall guy like Bruce in to sack after a year and then go for Moyes

I mean talk about trying to be back hand just because the midfield was so weak we kept breaking through
Dunno what he's on about west ham of old would have lost 4-1

Your last sentence is extremely relevant though. Pretty much any manager was going to struggle after Fergie. Not just with fans, but with players to. Especially if they didn't have success. I know Rio Ferdinand didn't like him, but there will always be doubt and comparisons between Fergie and what a new manager does.
Moyes ran a stable club in Everton. But, he wasnt exactly known as playing good attractive football. He also hadn't won much as manager, just the second division with Preston.
And, realistically, if Klopp left Liverpool or Pep left City, would their fans get excited about Moyes replacing them? Doubt it.

Watched MOTD last night and it was the first time I saw the “talking points”. For me the 1st goal was good. Not West Ham’s fault Alison was doing the Hand Jive when he should have been at work!
The Creswell challenge, his foot bounced off the ball up to Henderson’s knee, looked bad when they froze it but he wasn’t in control and if it had been a red I couldn’t complain.
As for the Salah “foul”….. I could tell he was up to his tricks as soon as it happened - even before the replay confirmed it - when he simulates, he does a little signature jump in the air and then rolls on his side.

Really hate it when players with that much talent have to reduce themselves to diving
Cresswell I thought they would give red .. but the foot bounce must have come into it
Jamie redknapp hit nail on head.. Allison needs to focus on doing his job he was too interested in pushing Antonio
Love that Nolan is keeping his legacy going lol

Yes please.
So, Utd who barely break sweat get in a manager who gets his players running more than any other team
. Make it happen, please. I want to see how Pogba deals with that

Frankly, that was crap from the ref and crap from Arsenal. I was at the game and was very unhappy. Watching the highlights, even more so.
Arsenal were the better side, so no complaints, but let's have it fair and sporting please.
I think we have a Villa fan, maybe more than one, on here. What is the thinking regarding Smith? I know the season has not started well and you are 5 on the bounce but did he deserve the chance to put it right? I can't work out if the board have been effectively ruthless, giving lots of time for the new manager to turn things around, or if they have been knee jerk on this. I'm interested to hear a fans persepctive.

Honestly, Klopp has tried to create this happy-go-lucky laid back persona and the media lapped it up, but he's actually as petulant as they come. Remember when he berated a BT Sport interviewer for his fixture pile-up like it was his fault? Ridiculous bloke.

There's not much in it, but Rice steps right across him, impeding his progress and doesn't get the ball. Like it or not, that's a foul by modern standards.

Or he is just like every single other top class manager and they use many methods in the media to deflect - been going on for decades - all the way back to the 70’S with Shanks , Clough , Ferguson , Wenger Mourinho etc etc
They all have the same mentality - what do you expect them to say ?

I think slating the team that's just beaten you is a bit much to be honest. Saying they were like the 'old West Ham' is a bafflingly stupid comment. He's an intelligent guy, I'm sure he must realise that teams will play more pragmatically against a top side. Just makes him look stroppy and a sore loser. Don't mind him giving reasons for a defeat if there's actually any validity in the comment.Or he is just like every single other top class manager and they use many methods in the media to deflect - been going on for decades - all the way back to the 70’S with Shanks , Clough , Ferguson , Wenger Mourinho etc etc
