Manager of the year - Moyes ? Mourinho........ |
|
David Moyes has rounded off a memorable season by winning the League Managers' Association manager of the year award.
He guided Everton to fourth place in the Premiership this season, which also means a place in the Champions League. "At the start of the season I wondered, 'How can we avoid relegation?' Then we lost Rooney_79586.shtml'>Wayne Rooney to Manchester United," said 42-year-old Moyes. "A year ago I was relieved to have escaped relegation. It is amazing how football can turn around." He does deserve to take the praise - because it was such an amazing turnaround from the end of last season From D Have your say on 606 The LMA award can go to a manager from any division who was "deemed to have achieved the most - taking into consideration the resources available to him". After struggling in 2003-04, Everton turned into a tougher proposition when Rooney was sold for £27m last August. Moyes only had a limited amount of that money to spend, initially bringing in Tim Cahill from Everton and Marcus Bent. Midway through the season, Everton's form dipped following the sale of Thomas Gravesen to Real Madrid but they showed admirable spirit to finish above local rivals Liverpool - and in a Champions League qualification position. |

Thoroughly deserved in my oppinion. If anyone had said Everton were going to Qualify for the Champions League at the start of the season, then they would have been carted off in white jackets and sent to an insane institution, however he has beat all the odds.
I dont think any other managers acheivements this season even come close to what he has achieved this season. |

i still think Robbo should have won manager of the year
|

The problem with that is, would you have given him manager of the year if they still went down? Also he was not the manager all year through. Over the course of the season, it has to be Moyes in my oppinion

Moyes was on talk sport yesterday. He has cut the squad size down, cut the wage bill, sold his 2 star players and still managed not only to survive, but also qualify for the Champions League.
I hope they do well in the competition next season now. I dont expect they will get far, but i dont want to see them embarrased by silly score lines either |
