Can't see it. Swansea have always (at least, during their rise to and time in the PL) made attractive football a key part of their club identity. Moyes doesn't fit with that.

Still one of my fav vines

Craig Hope for The Daily Mail wrote:David Moyes should not have been sitting in a small auditorium in front of a handful of reporters answering questions as the new manager of Sunderland.
Instead, he maintains, he should have been halfway through a six-year contract as the boss of Manchester United.

Moyes, eyes narrowing as the subject turned to the inevitable, made no attempt to mask the feeling of injustice and bitter taste left by the manner of his undignified sacking just 10 months after replacing Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford.

At the club's training ground on Monday, it was the first time he had spoken as a Premier League manager since that April day in 2014 when, after news broke 24 hours earlier, he was seemingly the last to know of his impending — and brutal — dismissal.

'When you sign a six-year contract and you end up being there 10 months — yeah, I believe I was unfairly treated,' said the 53-year-old. He has chosen Sunderland as the club where wounds can be healed and new life can prosper.

'That is life in football. Ultimately, the key is to win football matches. I didn't win enough. But you must say there were mitigating circumstances. And I think there are maybe things that have gone on since then that would actually justify that even more so.

'Managing Manchester United gave me an unbelievable idea of what it is like at the top. I believe that is where I can work and that is where I should be working,' he added.

'My level is that, because that is what I saw when I was there. You don't get offered those jobs if you've not done something to deserve it. I am a better manager now for that experience.'

If Moyes sees himself leading out teams in the Champions League in the future — and he clearly does — his choice of club on his return to these shores is leaving him with a bigger mountain to climb than the Alpine range which formed the backdrop to last week's training base in France.

You tell 'em, Moyesie

Unfairly treated ya ya!!

Anyway hope we loan Januzaj to Moysie. Only he can resurrect the lad's career now. Can see him persuading the boy to sign for them on a permanent basis tho as a revenge.
And Sunderlnd will 101% take points off us this season. He will treat the match like a cup final.

David Moyes: Manchester United's great traditions have gone says Sunderland boss


Manchester United's "great traditions" have "gone", according to their former boss and current Sunderland manager David Moyes.

The Scot was sacked by United in 2014 - less than a season after being chosen to replace club legend Sir Alex Ferguson.

He said the club had "tended to pick British managers" and never felt the need to impose themselves in the transfer market.

"I can say that's gone," added Moyes.

"There have been a few changes at Manchester United but that's the way they have chosen to go."

United have spent £480m since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013 after 26 years as manager.

They broke their club record in January 2014 by signing midfielder Juan Mata from Chelsea for £37.1m - a deal done under Moyes, and spent a British record £59.7m on Real Madrid winger Angel Di Maria later that year, after Dutchman Louis van Gaal took over.

In August this year, they gave new boss Jose Mourinho a world record £89m to sign midfielder Paul Pogba from Juventus.

"They were a football club who enjoyed traditions with the way they spent," said Moyes, who returns to Old Trafford as a manager on Boxing Day, with relegation-threatened Sunderland, for the first time since he was sacked.

"They didn't try to compete with all the other clubs. They did what they thought was the right thing to do and spent the right way.

"Maybe that has had to change because of the current situation. [But] Sir Alex [Ferguson] went out and bought wisely and correctly in the transfer market and what he thought he needed to do."

Moyes repeated a claim that he was "definitely unfairly treated" by not being given enough time and also confirmed that the club missed out on a number of major transfers during his short tenure - including Real Madrid and Wales forward Gareth Bale, Madrid team-mate Toni Kroos and Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas.

"When I first went in my real target was Gareth Bale," said Moyes. "I felt all along that Gareth Bale was a Manchester United player.

"I fought right until the last minute. We actually offered a bigger deal than Real Madrid. But Gareth had his mind made up on going to Real Madrid. That was, in my mind, the player I really wanted to bring to Manchester United.

"The other one was Cesc Fabregas, who we thought we would get right up until the last minute.

"I remember when I first met Sir Alex and he always said there was a chance Ronaldo might come back.

"So that was the level we were targeting. I was not going out to bring in seven, eight players, because we had a squad which had just won the league.

"Toni Kroos was agreed to come in the summer. I had agreed it with Toni himself and his agent. Sometimes you don't get deals done. Gareth Bale, we were probably behind all along, Real Madrid were well in for it.

"The Cesc one was disappointing. It was very close. And Toni Kroos came up in January - it was done.

"A lot of players come into Manchester United and have not necessarily made the difference. But I think that, given time and having got to this period, I would have hoped I would be working with a successful team now."

He had 0 chance with any of those players lmao.

He's going to get sacked by Sunderland

from Man Utd to only getting Championship job offers in 3 years

After his Sunderland side's 2-2 draw at home vs Klopp's Liverpool, both goals scored from penalties, Moyes lauded his team for "the way they got up to Liverpool" and for "how they pressed them", telling the journalists that "Maybe If I was a German manager, you might praise that actually..you know.. if I had been German, you may have been saying 'great! you're doing something different'"

Don't understand it. West Ham have an alright team, willing to spend every summer..pretty big name. Why sign this scrub? they can do better.

They can't tbh.

I'm sure they can. There's about 500 million people on this planet with the last name Silva, and I'm sure every single one would be a better choice than Moyes.
The United thing has broken Moyes. He will no doubt West Ham get relegated.

6 month contract. I think all managers should have 6 month contracts.

David Moyes' 6 year contract finally expired yesterday. What a ride.

Everyone's jerking off about Hasenhüttl meanwhile David Moyes has West Ham 3 points above Southampton on 7th place

not even a proven insightful, smart, thoughtful and judicious Premier League expert like @Jay29 saw this coming

What a bump

He has made West Ham a quality side. Some really good transfers as well unlike his predecessors. Wonder how many stays though

Both Soucek and Rice are good enough to play for a traditional top 8 side.
