True, but then again Fungus didn't have the problem of filling the boots of someone who is the most successful manager in the world.
I think most would have agreed a year ago that Moyes is a good, solid manager who had done a terrific job at Everton with limited resources. His performance so far at Man U, and Martinez' success at Everton, means that his cred certainly has taken a hit. However, in the adversity that Man U are facing, he has handled himself quite well. Getting rid of the bulk of the older guys in decline (Evra, Vidic, Rio), who are the most likely to question him and his methods, may be the best possible solution both for him and the club. I reckon they need 3 really good players to be right up there again; an Evra replacement, an experienced top class defender, and a top box to box midfielder. It is not beyond the realm of possibility that Moyes and his team learnt lessons from last summer. In fact, sealing the Mata deal is an indication of that IMO.
I honestly think they are more likely than we are to get the right players in next summer.
