Think about it......just 3 days ago we were the most depressed fans in the country so we were, and had a manager whom we loved dearly but was frustrating us with his almost religious belief in the wing back system,, also a team which at times looked like scared rabbits in the oppositions attacking headlights, and had conceded goals in added time in last 3 games, plus the prospect of league leaders and premiership elect Boro coming to town, just coincidentally on a run of NINE clean sheets in a row ,and god knows how many straight wins,, but look what happened .....

Tim Bartlett Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 City would be the perfect job for Moyes, he'd get time here and have a chance to establish city in the champ. Concern is he has a pretty high opinion of himself and could see him holding out for a prem job even though i dont think he has the credibility at that level anymore. He must be loaded also after Utd so money might not be his motivator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
