I'm sure Moyes is a good bloke but he is out of his depth and no amount of 'settling in' is suddenly going to give him the skill-set necessary to take Utd forward. IMO there is a reason that Moyes was at Everton for 10 years, did a great job but still no 'big' club went for him, and that is because they did their research, went through their appointment processes and concluded that he did not have the X factor to make the step up, or in the case of Utd several steps up.
I think realistically the only clubs he would leave Everton for would be Chelsea, Arsenal, United and Man City. One of those four offered him a job, one clearly were content with their manager (Arsenal) so that leaves Chelsea and City.
Personally I'm not surprised Chelsea didn't go for him.
I can't see City wanting to take a risk when they have similar candidates with European experience available.
I'm not sure whether Spurs would interest him however that's beside the point, Levy wouldn't want him anyway when he had a manager with European experience in AVB available. Timothy is merely a caretaker and I can see Spurs pursuing Louis and monitoring the situation of Jurgen and Carlo with the view of offering them a contract should they resign or get sacked.
Experience at the most elite level is a critical element for an elite job and many companies understandably require it therefore it does not surprise me one bit he wasn't offered a job because he came with a risk. United have been different willing to overlook the lack of experience and undergo short term difficulty with the view of long term glory.
That said, I am surprised David Moyes knowing Everton wouldn't compete for top four didn't leave for Germany or Italy where he could manage a side that had the finances to challenge for top four with the view of eventually joining a side that could win the title. He didn't crave being a winner and was content challenging for Europa.
It's simple really, the board can now investigate where it went wrong and what the players honest opinions are of him. If they respect him and think he is a good leader then I have no problem with giving him another season. If the players do not respect him and the board don't think he is a leader yet give him another season anyway then may god help this football club.
Martinez has gate crashed the race for top four. I am not saying he is a better manager than Moyes because he might not be able to build a team like Moyes or build a team that has a solid defensive foundation however he is a better tactician and so has taken a well built and well drilled team to another level by making them also tactically sound. Every great leader and manager should know his limitations and delegate to those with greater expertise. Had David Moyes signed a high quality tactician at Everton and let him have a strong role in training then it stands to reason Everton very well could have performed better. As it is, he thought he was good enough to coach them.
