The only way he can turn Man U round longer term is to have the ability to spot future stars and attract them to the club and build a team for the future. He will not be able to attract top stars that can turn things round. He might even lose Van Persie.
How could he justify buying a Chelsea reject? And I doubt many Man U fans thank him for buying Felaney. Good luck to him but as far as I can see he has started off on the wrong foot and is lucky to still be there.
moyes is in the difficult position of following on from ferguson and having to lead the team through a transition - shifting the old players can be difficult, see AVB at Chelsea! as for mata, he was an exception to the general reject rule as everyone can see he is a world class player who just didn't fit joses system. however the fellani deal was a mess, overpaying for someone who was probably a couple of years past his prime. suppose he has now lost his chance of signing baines too!
man united fans have got to question who else they could get in if they do sack moyes. the only name that I think might be tempted is klopp of bourussia Dortmund - currently hit a glass ceiling and fighting a losing battle in Germany so might fancy a fresh challenge. However man united would certainly not be the only club in for him if this happens, I suspect arsenal included
