Moyes sacked by United

Rio Ferdinand hits out at David Moyes' tactics in the book he's trying to sell. Some of his criticism strikes me as bizarre. Apparently Moyes did away with the their "pre-match ritual" of eating low-fat chips on the night before a game. I think the child blood sacrifice must have been kept for continuity. And apparently he was flabbergasted at being dropped for the Bayern games despite only being a couple of months shy of being a QPR player.
 

Some of it wasn't just Moyes either. Woodward definitely played a part in their shoddy transfer dealings by not securing targets, and by all accounts some senior players were against him by basically day one. Not to say that Moyes didn't play his part, but he isn't as bad a manager as some make out. The role of your senior players is to support the manager in his decisions, not go off on a huff because you don't think the man has the pedigree and split the dressing room by starting coups.
 

ferninand pretty much said everything about.moyes that I was saying 4 years ago. playing not to lose, fearing the other team about what they could do and pretty much having the defeatist mentality.

so spot on Rio, exactly the truth and nothing but it.
 
I'll never cease to be amazed at how Fergie got that disaster of a squad to win a title in 2012-2013. I remember watching them play; they were dire, yet somehow always ended up winning 2-0
