Everton's Moyes named manager of the year
(adds Moyes quote, details)
LONDON, May 17 (Reuters) - Everton's David Moyes has been
named manager of the year after guiding his team to fourth in
the Premier League to earn a place in next season's Champions
League, Sky Sports News reported on Tuesday.
Moyes won the League Managers Association (LMA) award in
the face of strong competition from Chelsea's Jose Mourinho,
whose team won their first league title for 50 years, and Rafael
Benitez who has steered Liverpool to the Champions League
final.
It is the second time the Scot has received the honour after his
success two seasons ago when his side missed out on qualification
for the UEFA Cup on the last day of the season.
The LMA annual award goes to the manager, who can be from
any division, "deemed to have achieved the most taking into
consideration the resources available to him".
Everton struggled in the 2003/04 season and sold England striker
Wayne Rooney to Manchester United for 27 million pounds
($49.59 million) in August last year but Moyes remained optimistic.
"At the start of the season I was thinking to myself, 'How can we
avoid relegation?'" Moyes said at the ceremony in Nottingham.
"Then we lost our best player when Wayne Rooney left for
Manchester United. A year ago, I was just relieved to have
escaped relegation, so it's amazing how football can turn around."
He had limited funds to strengthen his squad before the 2004/05
campaign, signing only Australian midfielder Tim Cahill and
striker Marcus Bent for modest fees.
Moyes suffered another blow in January when influential Denmark
midfielder Thomas Gravesen left to join Real Madrid and the team's
form dipped initially.
Despite the loss of key players, Moyes created an impressive team
spirit to defy the critics and took great satisfaction in finishing a
place above arch-rivals Liverpool in the league.
"There's absolutely no doubt that Everton are the best team in the
city this season," he said after Liverpool's defeat at Arsenal this
month handed Everton a Champions League qualifying round
place.
The 42-year-old joined Everton from Preston North End in March
2002 as the successor to Walter Smith, who was sacked.
Born in Glasgow, where he started his playing career with Celtic,
Moyes also played for Cambridge United, Bristol City, Shrewsbury
and Dunfermline, making over 550 league appearances.
He finished his playing career at Preston where he stayed to take
over as manager from Gary Peters in 1998 and in May 2000 he led
them to the Second Division (now League 1) championship. |
