MANCHESTER UNITED: NO CRISIS IN CRISIS

EPL

Many who follow the history and achievements of Manchester United from the period Sir Alex Ferguson took over as manager of this London side would agree with me that the shoe he left at Old Trafford seemingly is too big for any manager to wear (My thought, I stand to be corrected). I am one of many who applauded the fact that he resolved to draw the curtain when the ovation seems loudest after so many good years to remember and so many trophies won . I admired the fact that it took absolutely so long and prolonged scrutiny to get a manager who seems the right choice with details such as Fergie's.

I am sure that many fans out there accepted that this was a Manchester United squad in need of reconstruction, despite winning the Premier League by 11 points last season. But what many do not understand now is how long this reconstruction will last ?  Just how long will United regain their first spot on the EPL table after Fergie's departure ? Where is Fergie's backroom staff ? did Moyes really ask men who worked with Ferguson  to go? where will the advice come ? If he decided to dispense the services of men like Eric Steele, Mike Phelan and Rene Meulensteen then Manchester United is in for a long decline and fall. These are men who had been with Sir Alex Ferguson , Men who know the tradition of Manchester United, Men who could have added at least one or two things to resolve the mediocre issue of United's midfield or is David Moyes a Mediocre coach ? here is few of his #not so good #not so bad performance.

Moyes Started playing career at Celtic and finished at Preston, where he played alongside young loan signing David Beckham between February and March 1995

Ten months after guiding Preston to the Division One play-off final, Moyes took over at Everton from Walter Smith in March 2002

Gave Wayne Rooney his Premier League debut in August 2002 before selling him to Manchester United two years later for a deal starting at £20m

Steered Everton to fourth in 2005 and place in qualifying stages of Champions League

Took Everton to FA Cup final in 2009, where they lost 2-1 to Chelsea after beating Man United in semi-final , yet in 2002

Everton finished 15th, seventh, 17th, fourth, 11th, sixth, fifth, fifth, eighth and seventh under Moyes, yet here in Everton his not so good achievements even without silverwares where lauded.

Manchester United will see more "decline and fall" as standard keeps declining ,More so how would you explain Rio's role in defeat by West Brom ,The 35-year-old laboured performance in defeat to West Bromwich Albion raised further question marks about his long-term future and United fast aging Squad,  Nemanja Vidic is 32  , Evra is 32 and Micheal Carrick is 32 , Van Persie has been superb at 30 but the hard truth still remains that Manchester United has an ageing side. I had expected Moyes to buy a world class creative midfielder , a player with a class , one who can read and decide a game but he choose to go for Marouane Fellaini , very slow fellaini,was Fellaini the type of player United actually wanted?  do not get me wrong Fellaini is a good player no doubt at least  United snapped him with  £27.5m which I already think is outrageous for a player of his class. But come to think of it have clubs and players found it easier to say no to Moyes' United than to Ferguson's? Has the fear factor that used to swirl around Old Trafford with the brilliant management and intimidating presence of Ferguson disappeared? just all of a sudden ?

Ferguson could not have ruled by fear alone otherwise his teams would not have played with such freedom - but there was always an air of what might face them if they failed to produce. That's why they are red devils and that is missing aura as it is .

Up United !
