Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson sees Everton
counterpart David Moyes as his replacement at Old Trafford.
Fergie, 67, is likely to step down after next season. He told
The Sun: “David hasn’t got the credit he deserves.
"When you take everything into consideration, he’s done an
incredible job at Everton.
“He has not had the resources of other clubs but got all his
younger players on long contracts and built around them with the
likes of Phil Jagielka, Tim Cahill and Joleon Lescott.
“The signings he has made have been terrific and it means he has
continuity for years.”
Moyes, a Glaswegian like Fergie, has done a remarkable job at
Everton since replacing Walter Smith in March 2002.
The Toffees have finished in the top six in three of the last
four seasons and was voted by fellow bosses as Manager of the Year
in 2003 and 2005.
Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho and Aston Villa’s Martin O’Neill
have been heavily linked with filling the United hotseat.
