Liverpool strategist David Moyes was named the best coach of the year by the English Football Coaches Association. His team finished fourth in the English Premier League this season and secured a place in the third round of UEFA Champions League qualifiers for next season.
This season, Everton started as one of the favorites to finish at the bottom of the table and possibly even be relegated to a lower league. However, despite not having star players, the team managed to beat the favorite teams, including the finalists of the UEFA Champions League, who finished in fifth place and will have to settle for UEFA Cup matches next season.
"At the start of the season, I was thinking about how to avoid relegation to a lower league," said D. Moyes. "Then we even sold W. Rooney to . A year ago, I was very happy when we avoided relegation. It's incredible how everything can change in football."
By the way, before this season, Liverpool added only two new players to the team - defender Tim Cahill and forward Marcus Bent. In the middle of the season, one of the leaders, Thomas Gravesen, left the team.
