Re: Fergie: Officially Retiring
I think if Mourinho wanted to he would stay at United for 5-10 years easily. It's the kind of job you would take seriously, and the opportunity to take over from Fergie and establish a new legacy is something appealing. If he left United where else would he go? And what would be the point? Try his luck in Germany? Italy again? Madrid have always been a bit of a circus club so it's not really surprising Mourinho will leave, but if he goes to United I can see him staying a while.
Moyes hasn't got the experience working with a big budget, so how could the United board trust him with theirs? I'm sure Moyes is rated by Fergie and maybe after Mourinho, Moyes would be perfect.
How about this - Mourinho to United, Ancellotti to Madrid, Moyes to PSG (to prove he can work with the budget), Martinez to Everton, some bright young coach to Wigan.
I would imagine the replacement has known for a while.
Its a tricky one though........Mourinho is undoubtedly a great manager, very capable of following SAF but he does come with the whole sideshow and does he ever stay for longer than 3yrs? (SSN say next 48hrs....Real Cup final friday night? Doesn't quite fit in)
while Moyes is another straight talking jock who can motivate and get a team performing above their individual level. Get off on the right foot and he has the potential to be another long term appointment.
Wonder how much input SAF has had??.........Moyes for me
