Lee
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's Supermod!
Yup, he's used to winning nothing so he'd fit in with us.

I'd be happy to see him stay in the Premier League but I wonder if he would be tempted by a job in the Championship too and given more of a chance to properly build a team there.
Its been a bad season for the club on many levels but the players haven't covered themselves with glory and too often have been far more effective at impersonating disinterested statues.
Moyes was fucked from the very start. He inherited a bunch of spoiled gloryhunters (Ferdinand, Evra, Vidic, Van Persie) who didn't want to play for him and went on holiday the moment Ferguson wasn't around to give them a good kicking. He should have been given time to clear them out and then get a clean run at the job.

Moyes also inherited a lot of damaged goods.
Players like Smalling and Jones who looked to be good buys for the future but were then continually played out of position or not played at all. They have almost gone backwards as a result of SAF being so hell bent on winning the title one more time after losing it to Man City. He undermined the team's future by relying on past their prime centre halves, a 40 year old midfielder, a retired one and a Dutch mercenary centre forward with a poor fitness/attitude record.

I think Smalling has actually done alright this season while still needing a lot of polishing. As Barbosa alluded to, him and Jones alternating between centre backs and full backs hasn't given them the fluidity to feel like they own either position. Rafael has gone backwards to an alarming degree and while I remember rumours that Moyes wasn't impressed by him, Rafael didn't really do anything to persuade him otherwise.

Rafael has a rash streak in him. Can look decent for a while but always has a disaster and a run of awful games in him.
If there was one person who epitomises the lack of effort in the squad this season it is Patrice Evra. In the space of about 12 months, he has gone from one of the better full backs in Europe to a lazy shite, going forward but never coming back.

Like I said, if I were coming into the Manchester United job, 7 of the starting 11 players would be gone as my first order of business. With Vidic leaving and (in my opinion) Rooney, Van Persie and Mata worth saving, a massive rebuild would be on the cards.
I'm glad Giggs isn't in the running for the job, too. He's far too inexperienced in management. He was a talented player, perhaps the best Premier League player ever but Moyes was and is a much better manager than Giggs is at this point. If Moyes couldn't find a way to make this team win, then I doubt Giggs could do it. And you can't trust the rebuilding of the most recognisable brand in football to a man who has never managed a football club.
Louis Van Gaal is the obvious choice here. The whole club needs torn away and rebuilt and Van Gaal has a proven track record of making that work. With most top class managers ruling themselves out, I don't see any alternative honestly.

It's been great seeing United doing so badly this season but one thing I don't understand is why people are having so much fun having a real go at Moyes. He's always been a really good guy and people are having the times of their lives just shitting on him as if he as the ego of Fergie or Mourinho. He wasn't good enough for the job and I feel sorry for him. I don't like revelling in his misfortune at all, certainly Uniteds but not his.
Good luck with him next season Lee (this will come back to bite me when Levy signs him as he is the cheapest option).
EDIT: When I say this I don't mean you guys, I mean Twitter and all that.

The difference was United had Van Persie to rely on last season when they played like shit for 1/2 of their matches to win points. How many times did they struggle to score before RVP scored out of nowhere during the first 2/3 of last season? Moyes lost Van Persie and exposed the weakness of the team.
Oh and Carrick covered their midfield issues last season and he fell back to being merely good instead of awesome this season.

Not so domestic, but the Barcelona manager from last season, Tito Vilanova, died at 45 today. Lost a long battle with throat cancer I believe. May he Rest in Peace.

At least Rooney's nation is actually going to the World Cup, unlike one of the main names in the ad...

Still a bit weird if it is meant to be Nike's World Cup ad.
