Moyes woes continues as ManU is knockout of FA cup, Chelsea wins as Mikel scores

 Now it's getting serious. Now, David Moyes's difficult first season at Manchester United is developing into a full-blown crisis, a train-wreck of a campaign that just seems to lurch from bad to worse.
Consider these statistics. Sir Alex Ferguson went out of the FA Cup at the third round stage just once in his 27 years at the club. 

The Barclays Premier League champions and record 11-time cup winners have lost at Old Trafford five times this season, including four of their last six at home. Before Sunday, Swansea had never won here, going back 10 games and 82 years.

Michael Laudrup's side also arrived in Manchester without a win in seven games but they were fully deserving of the victory that was sealed by Wilfried Bony's 90th-minute header.

By then United were in disarray. With Antonio Valencia off the field and Rio Ferdinand forced off by injury, Moyes sent on Fabio da Silva to play at right-back and moved Chris Smalling to central defence.

The Brazilian lasted three-and-a-half-manic minutes, sent off by referee Mike Dean for a reckless lunge at Swansea substitute Jose Canas. No-one argued with the red card, not even Fabio.
Darren Fletcher was next to take up position on the right side of defence, and in the final minute of normal time the Scotland midfielder was left trailing by Wayne Routledge who got to the line and clipped a cross to the near post. Neither Smalling or Jonny Evans were anywhere near Bony as the Ivory Coast striker rose to plant a header beyond Anders Lindegaard.

Moyes tried to put a brave face on it afterwards. Fortune is not smiling on him at the moment, no question, and Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie were among seven players unavailable to him yesterday.
But he knows this simply isn't good enough.

United's title hopes have all but disappeared by New Year and now they are out of the FA Cup. They go to Sunderland in the first leg of the Capital One Cup semi-final on Tuesday night and resume Champions League duty next month, but the doors are starting to slam shut on their new manager.

You can take a middle level coach to handle a top level team and think the team will rise to what level? ofcourse to the level of the middle level coach. Its all about the head. The direction of the head determines where the body goes. 

Well done Moyes on behalf of all Chelsea's fans. You are doing a fantastic job. Keep it up. Hehe
