I've said before today, I reckon Sir Alex saw the writing on the wall and got out whilst he could and still look good. I reckon he'd have gone 12 months earlier ad citeh not won the title in 2012.
Gellso is spot on. It's not the 1980s anymore, such are the vast sums at stake, managers don't get 3-odd years, mearer 3 months...
90% of United players have to have a long look at themselves. They say Moyes had lost the dressing room, two players aside, I don't think he ever had it. Thing is, you can't sack 24 players, but you can sack one manager.
After getting rid of Mike Phelan & Rene Meulensteen he had shot himself right in the foot bigtime.
Sad all round.
