Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[Phil from the upper holte]

Sat there looking clueless. Fucking dreadful, feel for anyone who paid for that today

I wonder if Moyes can be tempted back into English football.

[Holte L2]

Who is available? Allardyce, Pearson or Klopp, I know who I want.

Marcelo Beisla. Though we have no chance with our board.

I wonder if Moyes can be tempted back into English football.

Probably. Tempted by us? Whole different question.

[Quiet Lion]

Dyche, Marco Bielsa or literally anyone but this clown would do for me

I think Moyes is the one. He's used to working with a limited budget and fairly high expectations from his time with Everton. Despite a shite season with ManYoo, he's still proven he can put together an effective team and play decent football.

He also managed to get his whole team scoring goals, because he was shit at signing strikers. Happily, we haven't got any decent ones, so he'd feel right at home with us.

Edit: I say this not because I actually want Moyes - I'd far rather try for someone with a huge brain and a strong commitment to a continental style of intelligent, passing football. But Moyes would tick all Randy's boxes.

Moyes would probably want an escape route home from an unhappy time in Spain, but I'd be nervous about employing a manager who has struggled in his last two jobs.

[olaftab]

On our current scale I wouldn't call Moyes's last two jobs as a struggle!

[ronshirt]

He reminds me a little of Tommy Docherty. Lots of players. Different team each week. Charismatic owner of a watering can.

He replaced relegation bound CummingsOut! in Dec 1969 only to be sacked himself in Jan 70. Possibly after an eight goal home thriller with Portsmouth which was one of the first games I went to on my own. I started off on the Witton End well away from the rougher sorts but after spotting other youths sweet-talking their way past the transfer stile spent the second half under the Trinity Road absorbing the cynical resignation and cigarette smoke of the old men who used the word 'fucking' instead of breathing.

Freddie Mwila. Dave Simmons. Lionel Martin.

DC5 I need to borrow your Tardis.

I can't believe it's the same manager who was leaping around the dug out at the end of last season.

I'm starting to think that something has gone on and it's led to his demeanor changing.

It mirrors Lambert in many ways.  At the end of his first season, he was prowling the touchline and kicking every ball, but within a few months he gave the impression that he would sooner be somewhere else.  Was Sherwood made promises about the takeover which weren't kept?

I noticed that today, too.

Spent a lot of time sat down, expressionless.

TS has confirmed what many have suspected about him this season...absolutely clueless. The tide has changed...he's a dead man walking and he's got to go.

For me, this was not only confirmed by the ridiculous team selection today and another formation switch at half time, but his post match comments on WM where he pretty much admitted that he hasn't got a clue...something along the lines of rolling the dice, trying different formations and hoping to stumble across something that works. Sorry Timmeh...but that is not how you manage a Premier League club even if you are trying to bed in a lot of new players and spending £50m in the summer.

Completely out of his depth. Completely clueless. Put us all out of our misery please Fox.

[SamTheMouse]

You work out how you want the team to play, you buy players who can do it, coach the others as best you can, instil a simple message and don't fuck about changing things every five minutes.

You'd think Sherwood won all these players in a raffle, rather than buying them specifically to fit his master plan.
