David Moyes: I Was Let Down By Manchester United 

Sacked a championship winning backroom staff and replaced them with clowns, then wonders why it didn't work out.

He left a stable job and inherited a championship winning squad full of experience and youth, before replacing a successful coaching staff with an average mid-table coaching staff.

Does Moyes ever stop going on about this?? He sacked the background staff, brought his bunch of losers from Everton with him and took the champions to 7th place!!! And his transfer targets that summer were Baines and Fellaini 😂😂???

Told Nemanja Vidic to watch Phil Jagielka to learn how to defend - that alone shows how out of his depth he was.

Moyes it was your fault no one else's Stop asking for pity . Look at the job you have done at West ham Pathetic, and why bring your dad into it .. We all have family issues and still have to get up and do our job properly. And we don't get paid millions if we fail . You are very lucky to earn what you get .. And your dad is absolutely fine so stop the pity

The way Moyes was sacked is disgusting. However, in reality he probably deserved to be sacked sooner. I think he was let down massively by the board for allowing us to not spend any money except on Fellani. The board should have insisted we buy players because it was obvious the team desperately needed big signings and you have to back your new manager. Likewise, Moyes has to take responsibility for also not insisting we sign players.

Don't really buy Moyes' take on this and he omitts quite a bit of the reality of the situation at that time. People forget just how badly they were playing under him. He had an ageing squad that needed to be rejuvenated, absolutely, but he also had united playing in such a dyer, predictable way. Think that fact has been lost in the shuffle. Even with the ageing squad also, to finish 7th or 8th was still well below what should be expected from a title winning team. How he was dismissed was shameful from United's point of view but the public consensus was at the time that the sacking itself was inevitable. History seems to have a slightly rewritten on that fact. He'd also completely lost the dressing room. He had to go.

In today's society no one is willing to take accountability for thier own performances. It's always someone else's fault

The player Steven is referring to has to be Maguire

I’d be more interested in hearing what’s going on at WH at the moment? Why the offence is bottom 5, his defence is bottom 5 & why so many players off form & what are his transfer window plans to correct this? 🤔⚽️

As others are saying, he ditched the coaching staff, but he also froze out Zaha, Sir Alex's last signing.

I remember what media said at that time he (moyes) called nemanja vidic to show him a video of Everton defender Phil jagielka how play

He inherited SAF’s worst and oldest squads. It was a grenade, and he fell for it.

lost a couple of games...try 11. took a team from winning the league by 11 points to 7th.

If Mourinho had been appointed and backed in the Transfer window we would have been looking at a different United team today can't imagine how massive they would have been today cause United too a big dip but still there World Status has shaken much.

The guy didn’t get supported during his first transfer window The reason for that was by how much they had won the league by the previous season.

Decade later and still won't let it go

You took the team from 1st to 7th bud, you didn't do good enough, We would of accepted 3rd/4th, 7th wasnt good enough, Simple

Moyes talking about “class” and “style” 😂

Adnan Januzaj was the reason why Moyes lasted in the job that long. Brilliant players like Rooney, RVP, Vidic suddenly don't have a game plan. I remember the reason Vidic left was Moyes told Vidic to see videos of Jagielka and learn how to defend. This guy was a bluff and couldn't do shit tactically except long balls to Fellaini.

Seems like a good bloke.

David....even if we finished outside Top 4, there could have been signs of consistency with the performance or with player recruitment. You inherited a premiership winning squad, how can it have gone so disastarous in such short span time. Take some accountability, unfortunately you couldn't win enough games, which is what YOU said is what you would be measured on. You didn't deliver sadly.

Took us from champions to 8th ffs! Miles out of his depth.

The glazers are not football people. So sorry for David. Glazers out!!!

His mistake was getting in his back room team instead of having those who were with Sir Alex at the time, he was also a strange appointment! He did alright with Everton but they are Everton! Not a big club, I think the United job was out of his grasp and he was out of his depth

He was the chosen one, the one who could have carried on sir alexs legacy. Imagine if he was still at the helm now, he wouldve won more than one champs league

Moyes was just out his depth at utd

He was doing a great job at Everton ,who haven't been the same since he left he wasn't good enough to be man utd manager and I believe only got the job because of his nationality the club should of chosen their next manager not the previous manager

9.44 has to be Harry Maguire

Managers deserve time. He didn't get any.

We shouldve given him more time especially considering we gave Ole three years

As much as I love the idea that in an alternate universe Moyes would have been winning trophies if given time, the reality is he just wasn't the right man for the job. Getting rid of the coaching staff was completely the wrong thing to do, and this isn't hindsight speaking, this was blatantly obvious at the time. He just did everything wrong; everything. It was always going to be tough to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson but he didn't make it any easier for himself. Perhaps he may have been given the wrong advice by Sir Alex or someone else, but either way it was still wrong. It's amazing that the same group of players that won the League finished 8th under him

lol... you sacked Championship winning staff causing a slew of core players to leave... you just weren't good enough...

9.35: Tell him to stop putting his ego before his family will being then and relinquish the captaincy. He doesn't start, he doesn't take responsibility as a leader, he spreads comments about teammates to the press to project away from his own inadequacies. Maguire is accountable for the stress. Fans support but they won't support blind arrogance in the face of poor standards.

Loved Moyes at United, shame it didn't continue

what made the board and saf to appoint him as our manager

these videos are hugely edited visually.. watch david's eyes when he blinks, his eyes change colour.

The title should be... David Moyes let Manchester United down

Had moyes been allowed to have his full 6 years utd would have done far better

Multi-millionaire, bang average football manager (never won a thing or got promotion in his life) gives hour long, self absorbed interview, whilst taking the team he manages is into the relegation zone... and he wants everyone to feel sorry for him! What creep

This man is deluded, drop it FFS.

Isn't he supposed to be focussing on the relegation battle right now?

Was he also let down by Sunderland, Real Sociedad and Went Ham? Take some responsibility ffs. He had a prime Zaha and never played him. Couldn't utilise Van Persie either who was still a world class player at that point.

He was let down? We were let down by him taking champions down to 7th in the league and getting knocked out of every cup competition early

Moyes sacked everyone and even the players. Didn't take advice from SAF

He had a champion winning squad and squandard it he has a legacy but it is one of failure

Next week its LVG...Big bad Man Utd.... West Ham are going shite now...Is that his fault or West Ham board?

Bankers have no feelings, everything is cash/money to those parasites.

Don’t understand purpose of this interview

We all know he wasnt good enough. Thats why he got sacked. Simple. Nothing personal. Mid table manager at best. Shouldnt have been appointed in the first place. He cant even get a mediocre team like west ham to play well

Bang average manager. I don’t understand what Sir Alex saw in him. There was Mourinho, Pep, Klopp but you get this guy. The football under this guy was terrible. Zero gameplay. To go from champions to 7th place was incredible.

Moyes moving Manchester United on the darkness. Dissapointed for every Manchester United fans. Maybe sir alex will regret it decision to point him as a manager. 7th place is not right position for manchester united. He did'nt think hard enough to win because he think he still manage everton team that on 7th place will not get sack.

So basically over the last 10 years Moyes has done zero introspection and hasn't taken any accountability for the shit show that was his tenure. Bad news should be delivered a good way? Did he give us supporters that cause that season was bad news delivered badly

Does Harry Maguire have a younger sister? hmmm

This just seems like a platform for excuses.

He made United a long ball team . Football played then was pathetic.

I remember Man United fans were all pious when he came. “The chosen one” “We give our managers time” but when shot cam to shove they showed what an absolute entitled arrogant base they really were. Horrible football club.

Im sorry you got rid of the backroom staff THAT WAS YOUR FIRST MISTAJE Signing fellini and mata SECOND MISTAKE Saying you "hope" to win THIRD MISTAKE Changing mentality from win at every cost to just don't lose FOURTH MISTAKE Stop saying you had no time because had we gave you anymore we be relegated!! Out of all man utd sackings YOUR WAS DESERVED Stop playing victim and own up to your mistakes you was not good enough for man utd

Moyes was out of his depth from the start, in his first press conference he looked like a deer in the headlights. He never should have got that job.

Serious revisionist history going on here. He lost the dressing room within two months because he has poor man management skills. He also bought Fellani.

He had a chance he failed end of

You let yourself down when u sacked the whole backroom staff of OT, people that couldve helped you, that was mistake 1. Mistake 2 was United should never have appointed a manager with a solitary division 2 play off win to hos name, its still your only trophy! 🤭

You deserved to be sacked much sooner. You instantly transformed a champion side which had won the premier league by 11 points into a mid table mess. You sacked the backroom staff and you destroyed the club so much it's curse has lingered for a decade. Ten Hag is the only one after Moyes that I have some faith in.

Sorry United didn’t let you down you shouldn’t of got the job to absolute chancer

He was never going to be a success at united the job was way too big for him and the man was clearly out of his depth...

Moyes style of play is losing football look at west ham now running them into the ground

First to view😊

He was given Thiago, scrapped the deal and got Felliani instead, first game he lost he started having a pop at the referees, trying to be Alex Ferguson lite, he was out of his depth, had fuck all to do with the club

Let down? What a load of Bollocks! He was completely out of his depth and only got the job because he was Fergie's scottish pal.

Blah, blah, blah. Give it a rest Dave, you came, you saw, you failed! Spectacularly so and you were rightly sacked, if anything United were too supportive of him and he was given too much time. Had the trigger been pulled before Christmas when he was obviously out of his depth the season might have been salvaged somewhat.

Sir alex has a part to play in man u failure

imagine what Everton could have done if they had a better manager than this fool? now about to be sacked again, terrible manager.

No David you let down everyone by being a flop.

I like David Moyes and he was treated badly by MUFC. He would have turned it around and got them back to the top if he been given time.

David, you would have give us Stability ( l couldn’t see it lasting ) but you’d never have took us to the next level, also you made a Huge mistake by sacking the United backroom staff who had the trust of United players and who knew the Club it would never have worked let it go David you’ve gone from Grey to Silver during this interview 🤣 👹🇾🇪👹🇾🇪👹

These questions are dumb. He should ask him why he thought united underperformed. What mistakes did he make in his view? All he is doing is whining.

Stop the united bashing.. Just like mard arse lingard.. You were not upto it your results said it all

You 🛎end let down by united you dismantled a winning team and you was advised to keep the back room staff u never listened
