Support NeoGAF

[Jack cw]

They were thrown out. Did they ever admit that it was all their fault? I just don't get the hate for his public statements. He's fucking up big time, what else is he gonna say?

Topo pls. I was joking

 

[Meier]

If Moyes would be a poster on NeoGAF he would be even worse than Blablurn.

Moyes won't leave of his own accord, he'll have to be pushed. He left a very comfortable job at Everton to manage United. If he fails here where does he go? No big club will touch him and he obv can't go back to Everton so the cushier jobs are gone too. And I can imagine him not being up for rebuilding another floundering team ala Everton 10 years ago.

Agreed. He'd need a buyout of £20m (at a minimum, he has over £25m left on his deal) to leave IMO. Would be stupid to take anything less.

Moyes should fuck off and go live in some cave dwelling in the Himalayas

Seedorf could get sacked if he lose against Lazio and Fiorentina

I find that hard to believe. Again, as I said yesterday, Seedorf is Berlusconi's choice and has been our manager for two months, sacking him in 10 days would be seen as the president's mistake and Berlusconi definitely doesn't want that (he wants to keep the Pato-Tevez deal the last known fuck up from his part).

Unless Seedorf manages to lose every single match until the end of the season (and I think that's pretty impossible to do), he'll be our manager at least until next Christmas. At least. Imho he'll last until June 2015.

Well according to Viva there is word going around that his contract can be broken of he fails to make the CL or fails to reach the QF any season he's in the competition. So any payout he receives will probably be substantially less than £20m

 

[Wilbur]

guys lets just put moyes on our ignore lists and then we dont have to talk about him anymore

 

[Feorax]

The credit I would give Moyes over the Hodge is that he seems at least aware that it's going tits up. Hodgson seemed to think things were going pretty well until we binned him.

Interesting. He probably assumed that these things were a foregone conclusion when accepting that if there is any truth to it. Sounds a bit like wishful thinking or pandering from a journalist though.

Went well enough for him, as he's now in the job he wanted.

I think those sort of clauses are pretty standard these days.

Welcome.

What it must be like to play for BR.

Yeah, even Pardew's contract had a clause that if he's fired he only gets 1 year wages.

The problem for Moyeschester United is that they may not have thought to put in a clause like that since they just assumed it would all be fine. But honestly, who knows. Its pretty much impossible to say. Even Chelsea never put those clauses in, and I think Di Matteo is STILL being paid by them.

Guess I'll be cheering for United against Olympiakos then.

 

[Jarnet87]

Had Fergie done the right thing and hired The Special One like he was supposed to, United would be at worse in 4th spot, and in a great position to advance to the quarters. Do the right thing Fergie, call for a press conference and beg Mourinho to come to Old Trafford.

 

[Jack cw]

I still wonder if there is a decent manager out there on the market that could help United...

Arsenal are monitoring Hamburg attacking midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu.

The 20-year-old, who has been likened to Mesut Ozil, has earned rave reviews in Germany following a number of impressive displays.
He has already been capped by the Turkey national team and is set to play a key role in their Euro 2016 qualification campaign.
And Gunners spies are making regular checks on Calhanoglu's progress with a view to a future move.
Hamburg would demand around £15million for the youngster this summer, with Liverpool also keeping tabs on their player.

Bundesliga GAF is he any good?

he is probably one of the best talents in the bundesliga right now....

Spoiler

and he extended his contract like 2 or 3 weeks ago

 

[FuturusX]

Moyes should stop making excuses in his press conferences. The only real talking in football is done on the pitch. They need to win all three upcoming games or look something approaching victory in the City game.

He should sound like he has a plan to win beyond we'll try harder and our luck will turn.

Going from a shambles to competent in three days is a tough, however.

Maybe buy out clause? And I guess his contract isnt valid for the second division. But Arsenal should get Draxler too. Both are great talents that have serious Özil potential.

Do arsenal really need more invisible men?

There's a difference between criticizing something and lambasting it from every angle for all it's worth. Reading Jack's post(s), he comes off as a man that hates Kojima as a creative and the series' direction. Why does he suffer through them? For every aspect he complained about, someone loved the game for that very reason. Why expect Kojima to tailor the game to his whims at the expense of others?

Kojima and Metal Gear are flawed. I agree with that. I enjoy them nonetheless for the spirit they embody and the uniqueness in what they bring.

I'm all for discussions about a game, positive and negative, but my initial post was about the sense of entitlement. Because you paid a few hundred dollars for his life's work, you expect to be able to dictate what you want in return.

I haven't played the latter installments of Final Fantasy XIII. I do hope to in the future, but I just didn't like the direction the games were going in. I played every installment prior. It's that simple.

Where does Jack say he expects the game to be tailored to his whims? Or that he expects to dictate what he wants based on paying for previous instalments?

I prefer Moyes' comments after the odd wins. Like everything is cool now, it was just a blip. But then the next game.

Hope he gets his shit together for the Man City match. It'd be fantastic if Moyes' biggest contribution this season was to help Liverpool win the title.

Aren't they in danger of relegation though? He'll probably leave either way anyway.

The best one was after the Olympiacos match when he claimed Utd had been 'on form' heading into it.

We're gonna get fucking thumped. If we beat them or drew and handed the onus back to Chelsea I'll be delighted, but I can't see it at all.

Liverpool aren't winning the league. You guys are setting yourselves up for disappointment. Just like I want Arsenal to win it, but the FA cup really is our realistic chance for a trophy. Think City pips it in the end, they have no more distractions like CL and FA Cup.

 

[Splatt]

It's not Moyes's fault Fergie left him with a squad of old farts who don't give a shit

Spoiler

and the disembodied spirit of Kagawa

Same thing happened to Inter after Mou left, and Rafa had to make do with an old squad of players who won everything the season(s) before. We all know how that ended.

 

[Barzul]

We need someone who can replace Cazorla on the left. I also think next season Ox is going to put Wilshere on the bench.

They are. But it seems like they can save themselves.

I know we won't. But it's fun to be challenging for it.

And it' also exciting that we can make a pretty big impact on the title winner, since we play Chelsea and City, at home.

Also, I just want 3rd, new players and Suarez.

Just being in the conversation is enough for me. I expected 5th this year, so anything else is an absolute bonus.
