It
was, after all, his first game as manager of Manchester United.
Sadly, though, it turned out to be rather underwhelming.
Let’s
not fool ourselves that the results of pre-season friendlies actually
matter. They don’t. Clubs like United travel to places like this
primarily to make money, make new commercial friends and get some
much-needed fitness in to the legs of their players.
Nevertheless,
that a United team – even one missing nine first team players –
should lose here today will not sit well with Moyes as he begins his
reign as manager. This, after all, was a game against a group of
players from Thai football. It was, in essence, a little like losing
to Swindon Town.
Why
Sir Alex picked Moyes to replace him still beats me. This man never
won a single trophy in his days as Everton Coach. Some would say he
never had the money to buy top class players but isn't that the same
league where Birmingham and Swansea City won trophies.
He
just doesn't have the mental ability to coach a team to win multiple
trophies. He will eventually be fired just like Mancini was at
Manchester City.
They
both have the same problem. Mental and tactical weakness. Give them the best teams money can buy and their mental and technical weakness will bring that team to their
mental capacity; able to do just enough but never achieve great
feats.
I
give him three seasons at most and then he will be replaced.
