Best Manager in The League

Postby Niall Quinns Discopants » Mon Mar 29, 2010 11:37 am

Behind Taggart and Whinger? Who do you think it is? For me it's tight between O'Neill and Moyes. Both are top top quality who WILL be successes when they get their chance with a big club (well technically they ARE both in big clubs but you know what I'm saying). Personally I went for Moyes as I think he will adapt more quickly to needs in a big club and for a man who looks like a chav cunt, he is actually surpricingly forwardthinking with his methods imo.

So who do you think is the best manager behind the two of the most succesfull?

BTW, I've only listed managers who have more than years experience in English top level.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

It has to be Moyes really. I fucking hate him, but to play season after season with little to spend, and usually have only 1 half fit striker ot play, he constantly gets them in the top half, bar one rocky season.

They do have a good little squad, lots of injuries, but the results keep coming.

Obviously the best manager is the one who has won more trophies in England.

At least that's what you always said Mr Pants.

Moyes never won SHIT.

If we're basing it on silverware then doesn't The Fat Spanish Waiter win hands down ie. winning the Chumps League.

I spose MON has won a couple of league cups down here too.

Much-touted football myth #27. david moyes doesn't spend any money. Well, let's look at the facts, shall we?

Moyes has spent 162.4 million Euros since joining Everton, according to THIS SITE. He has made losses in the transfer market every single year he has been there except the two seasons rooney and Lescott were sold. Even including those two sales, his total net transfer loss is a tidy 50.3 million Euros.

Hmmm.

Back on topic, Benitez has won the European Cup so I suppose it must be him.

You can't just base it on cups alone, what about those managers who somehow always manage to keep their teams safe, regardless of how shit their teams are?

The question still remains, why is Hughes in there and not the likes of Brown/Coyle et al?

Is this thread another dig at certain managers?

Very good question. I have opted for Redknapp. I hate the man with a passion but his style of football and eye for a player are outstanding. Had he been here for this season we would not be trailing like we are currently.

Hello again my Irish troll brother. My opinions on Mancini are surely not for this thread. I hope you will not be too disappointed to see me remain on topic.
