no I think Xavi reckoned Rikaard didnât give him enough game time as he was small and not physical enoughâŠeventhough deco was around then and was more the finished article than Xavi at the time âŠ[/quote]
This is the drug cheat Deco?
Avram Grant crawls out of his hole to appear on Sky and declare interest in the United job.
its not digging inâŠi believe fergie showed other teams like Inter and Chelsea the way to combat Barcelonaâs tika taka style âŠnow this conversation has morphed into who was manager thenâŠ
Gill: Weâll move quickly
United chief executive David Gill says the club will move quickly to announce Sir Alex Fergusonâs replacement.
The Reds confirmed on Wednesday morning that the 71-year-old Scot will retire at the end of the current campaign after more than 26 years in charge.
And Gill exclusively told MUTV that it wonât be long before Sir Alexâs successor is revealed.
âIâm not going to get into speculation on that [an exact date]⊠but we will move relatively quickly. Iâm not going to define how quickly that is though,â explained Gill, who himself leaves the club at the end of June.
"The qualities [needed] are the ones that have been inherent in Manchester United for many years. If you look at what has happened with the two most successful eras â Sir Matt Busby and Alex â they are managers who got involved in the whole aspect of the club, whether it be from the youth team up to the first team.
"All aspects of it, plus that degree of loyalty and the understanding of the football club that itâs not just what happens on the first-team pitch, is crucial to the success of Manchester United.
"Those are the sort of things weâll be looking at. Clearly he has to have the requisite football experience, both in terms of domestic and European experience, so I think itâs a small pool but weâll move forward."
The lack of European Experience should rule out Moyes.
Moyes has plenty of European experience.
I suppose he is from Europe.
So youâre continuing to ignore the fact that other teams defeated Rijkaardâs Barcelona, like Rafaâs Liverpool, and that Inter and Chelsea were triumphant over a Guardiola managed Barcelona that was very different to Rijkaardâs team in terms of formation, tactics and personnel. But Ferguson provided them with the blueprint by beating that previous version of Barcelona whoâd been beaten by plenty of other sides. Thereâs absolutely no logic to your argument, Iâm afraid.
Sky now saying that there has been no contact from Manchester United to Everton as regards the availability of David Moyes. âEverything is business as usual hereâ, says the Sky reporter at Evertonâs Finch Farm training ground. Moyes is heading to Stamford Bridge to watch tonightâs match.
Will be very disappointed if Moyes is appointed. Doesnât have the pedigree for the job. No history of delivering trophies. Jose is the man to keep Man Utd competitive.
Moyes would be the modern day Frank O Farrell. It has to be a Mourinho or an Ancelotti. The club would be too big for Moyes.
Martin OâNeillâs Celtic were the first team to show others how to defend against Barcelona.
The same could have been said of Fergie before he took over.
Look at the shit that JosĂ© left Porto and Chelsea in. Heâs an overpriced short term solution.
Moyes is the perfect fit for the role and he comes to the job with plenty to prove as opposed to the other two that would be just turning up for the cheque due to what theyâve won in the past.
New manager to be announced on Friday!! Like I said, itâs highly unlikely it is Klopp, heâd hardly drop that bomb before the CL final.

I think the difference with saying that was that Manchester United in 1986 wasnt the club it is now. United were in decline for years when Fergie took over. A new manager will have to be spend money on the squad anyway.
Rene Meulensteen has said he wants Fred the Red to take over. 
Jesus christâŠiâm talking about the tactics Fergie used you complete emptyheadâŠof course teams beat barca over the years âŠbut utd. kept them scoreless over the two legsâŠdid Liverpool ? noâŠif I remember correctly Liverpool went behind early in match at camp Nou and went through on away goalsâŠtotally different game, totally different tacticsâŠChelsea and Inter used tactics similar to that used by Fergie than Liverpool usedâŠI donât understand how this is causing so much confusion for youâŠ
It wont be soon.
Its Moyes mate.
I can confirm it is David Moyes.
