But managing a midtable club on a budget successfully =/= managing Manchester United.
I mean ok but there is no other SAF out there. The managers with big time experience have their own drawbacks and will likely be a 2-3 year guy which I don't think ManU wants.

This, for the most part, is what I think as well.
Moyes is behind only SAF and Wenger for most seasons in the Premier League. The line of thinking here is that if he's done so well with his resources at Everton, just think what he could do with United. He's obviously loyal and has a background similar to SAF.
But, let's face it, United hasn't had to do this very much in the modern era. The Glazers are probably inclined to get another SAF because that's all they've known.
The Special One has that experience, but he's the type of guy that will move onto a new challenge after a few years.

I know. I implied that in my original post.
There's a reason there is only one Alex Ferguson. Modern football has changed significantly from the days he took over United. I don't blame the Glazers for wanting to find the next SAF, who doesn't? LFC sure as frick is trying to.
