    Good match the Champion's League final. Dante should have been sent off for Bayern when he gave the penalty away. Pity the Lewandowski goal was disallowed for Dortmund though, it was a cracker :thumbup:

    Aye.. its a big change from Moyes..

    Must admit i'm concerned about the loss of Uniteds coaching staff.. especially the loss of Muelensteen.. supposedly he's loved by the players and also RVP...

    William Hill have him as quite a short-priced favourite for the Wigan job. Might be a good appointment if true.

    I don't know much about him, just supposedly very innovative on the training ground, good fun, and RVP loved him, but many good coaches, Quieroz, Kidd, Mclaren haven't gone on to successful management posts..

    Who has? I can't think of many off hand who had a few years as number 2 and stepped out..

    We can't expect the last 20 years to be the norm.. but regardless I think united fans should back Moyes and give him his time, I think 3 full seasons.. then judge him. It was all Fergie had..

    arrived 86-87, 87-88, 88-98.. then won the cup 89-90 and went from strength to strength..

    I'm worried about this too. I went to a management seminar run by Muelensteen a couple of years ago and inbetween some amusing anecdotes about the Utd players, he talked about management styles etc and he was hugely impressive.

    If he does go into football management, I'll bet him to be a success.
