I mean, I understand the hire, I really do. I know the Glazers probably value loyalty as highly as anything else. And Moyes certainly has great knowledge of the game.

But by nature I am skeptical of a perennial midtable manager taking over a top 3 biggest club in the world. I mean, you're giving Manchester United to a manager whose only experience with the Champions League came almost a decade ago in qualifiers..

Football begins and ends with European success now. Moyes will be handed a fantastic team in a great situation, but there is no time for a learning curve when you manage Manchester United.

I'm inclined to believe that SAF hand picked Moyes.

Lack of experience in Europe and the fact that he could potentially bring Fellaini over are two of my concerns.

Didn't we, Liverpool, do exactly this when we got Brendan Rodgers?
