SMFH if we go in for Thiago and come out with Cesc

[Agony]

David Moyes, the incoming Manchester United manager, is set to appoint Phil Neville, Steve Round, Chris Woods and Robbie Cooke to his backroom staff, with all four taken from his former club Everton.

Neville, who made almost 400 appearances for United before joining Everton in 2005, is expected to replace Rene Meulensteen as first-team coach. The 36-year-old, Moyes's captain at Everton, had expressed interest in taking over as manager at Goodison Park.

With Meulensteen understood to have turned down a different role, four of Sir Alex Ferguson's senior backroom team will have departed the club. The assistant manager, Mike Phelan, Eric Steele, the goalkeeping coach, and Martin Ferguson, Sir Alex's brother, the chief scout, have all left.

Round, who has been Moyes's assistant manager at Everton since 2008, should take Phelan's position. Woods is in line to take over from Steele and Cooke, the chief scout at Everton, is likely to replace Ferguson.

It is unclear if Moyes, who hopes to persuade Wayne Rooney he has a future at United, has been able to speak with the striker. The birth of Rooney's second son and the fact that the forward was joining up with the England squad on Sunday, plus Moyes's plan to take a holiday this week, means time for them to meet has been limited.

[Gambino]

Can't even describe how pissed off am getting reading that now.

[Lieutenant]

C/s all above

Man should go coach the youth team for a couple seasons

[Davicious X]

Aint it funny that Gary Neville's opinion never really got respected until he became a pundit on sky sports. Now all you hear people say is he talks so much sense.

 

And here people are saying f*ck Phil Neville when in reality it could end up being a really smart move.

[Gambino]

Never rated Phil anywhere near as good as Gary on the pitch and it's the same off. This is just going to be a disaster now. Fergie leaving was a massive blow but I thought at least Rene is still the man preppin the team etc. Now we got a whole bunch of new guys coming in who haven't had any success at Everton.

[Benicio del Toney]

Yea, I'm reserving judgement till I see us Kick Off tbh.

 

Some of the things Fergie used to do really pissed me off so will be good to see a fresh approach.

[Mame Biram Diouf]

Just see the Neville for Rene news, and that he is departing the club

 

FFS

 

How

 

Why

 

In what world does this make any sense

 

Phil Neville is known for working hard

 

Whats he going to be saying ''come on boys well done, just kick it mate''

 

The guy partly responsible for the development of our most technically advanced youth players in years, and we are replacing him with Phillip ''Taking part that counts'' Neville

 

Will Keane, Welbeck, Cole, Cleverley, Ravel, Lingard

LMFAO

 

My Moods gonna get worse and worse. I wouldn't mind but my boys are probably asleep right now and I need to make a call and start swearing down the phone at a fellow football guy over this.

[Wavant]

Lol mate

Argh

[stacksbranning]

This is normal  thing to happen when teams change managers tbh

[Gambino]

Normal to other clubs maybe.... My sense of normal as a United Fan is being 99% sure the Premiership is being won at the start of every season. Now guys are talking about Phil Neville being first team coach... Feel like this Quantum World I'm in has a Virus or something.

[Kompressor]

If this is true then I guess the functional, largely unattractive and unimaginitive football next season will be blamed on the new regime.

Won't know what the future holds till the time comes, Rene was never likely to hold onto the same role, he was apparently offered head of youth Development, (whatever the fuck that really means) he was never going to take a demotion and why should he, To have a hands on Manager at the club and Rene on the training pitch would leave Rene largely redundant which would've been a shame for him. He should look for a management job to further his career and hopefully he does well.

Toney's right this dramatic crap is a bit much tbh, let's wait to see what the new season holds Rene has been rated highly by certain individuals in the squad however if next season a midfielder or 2 are purchased and 9/10 games are played in an exciting and less functional manner with the defence being sured up a bit I'd actually see it as progress.

Not meaning to sound critical of Rene but the football of the last few years has been dire. He seems to do really good work on a one to one level so it's a shame he can't be deployed in a role to let him carry that on but fair play to him.

Dunno when Phil Neville became attached to the quite "it's the taking part that counts"

I get that people are uneasy about a new regime but it seems like here and elsewhere people are just looking for reasons to doubt and throw stones at Moyes before he even sits in the seat.

As long as the club shows progress on the field aswel as playing attractive football whilst looking to promote young (mainly local) talent I'll be ok with the regime.

As I've said earlier the football in the last few years has not been "the United way" stamdout players like Pogba and Morrison are elsewhere and we were still tacticaly shit for the most part in Europe.

Give Moyes his 3/4 years and lets see what happens.

[Gambino]

Isn't Brian Mclaire the current head of youth development?

[darkman]

Kompressor do you think you currently play attractive and imaginative football or was you being sarcastic?
