With the computer being slow and can't seem to do anything much, (as I'm rendering a 20 minute loop vid for work); I.....I....
David Moyes.
where should one begin with the man?
From breaking records(the wrong records mostly) to his week-in week-out predictable team sheets, from his mistakes from day one in almost every aspect of managing the club; staff, training regime, transfer market dealings,etc to his horrendous excuses in front of the media.
Of course, to be fair he needs time to settle in to new players and system; and comparisons from loyalists (and Haters alike) did point out the transitional period when Sir Alex Ferguson took over wasn't instant......but hey, the team then was a bunch of drunkards and under-achievers(as I read), not the reigning champions!
A quick search on David Moyes today returned the following result:
After some time spent trying to figure out what should I rant about D.Moyes, I've thinned down to a slightly shorter list that irked me most of him being The Chosen One in Old Trafford.
What makes my blood curdled are perhaps what he said. Period.

Thanks to Brooks Pecks' article "David Moyes 5 Most Regrettable Quotes This Season" and this dailymail article I've compiled the following.
(Take a deep breath and read with caution, fellow Devils)
"Their league position suggests they are ahead of us and they possibly do come here as favorites. Liverpool are having a very good season and we will have to do everything we possibly can to beat them." - DAVID MOYES, March 2014, boot-lickin' Liverpool pre-match.
"I think we've played a very good side and it's the sort of standard and level we need to try and aspire to get ourselves to at this moment in time. I think we need to play better. We're needing to come up a couple of levels at the moment and we're not quite there." - DAVID MOYES, March 2014, conceding the derby defeat before the game. Reverse psychology ain't you, DM.
"Don't forget Everton finished above Liverpool last year, and the year before." - DAVID MOYES, APRIL 2014, pre-match day interview which he reminded everyone that current Everton manager, Roberto Martinez inherited his players; hence Everton is doing well this season.
"I don’t think the midfield was just the one department where you’d say we were lacking. I think it would be unfair to say it was any [specific area].

It was the whole thing, we were lacklustre in nearly all the areas. So we’ve got to try and work on it and improve. We’ve just not played that well. We should be scoring more from open play." - DAVID MOYES, Sept 2013, blaming the players. #duuh
"I don't know what we have to do to win. We played well today." - DAVID MOYES, February 2014, ah. that's enough.
Genius.
