Chapter 137: Moyes And MU

Sir Alex's expectation for his successor, David Moyes, at Manchester United was very high. Although at the beginning of the season David Moyes showed a less convincing performance, but Sir Alex believed Moyes need enough time to handle Manchester United. Just trust the process.

Therein lies the problem. The process of big club transition was sometimes the most crucial period. To get back up, it took a lot of time. But will Manchester United fans gave Moyes that much time? No matter how bad Manchester United was, in the hands of Sir Alex, the Red Devils was at least always in the top 4 positions. But look at the current Premier League table. Manchester United was stranded in 7th position.

The sudden change and reality that did not match with expectations, made Manchester United fans, especially fanatics were bullying Moyes to the fullest. Every Manchester United game there will be someone raised the #MoyesOut banner. After Sir Alex's retirement, Manchester United seems to be sinking.

Manchester United fans didn't have that much patience. After failing to win Premier League two years in a row, Manchester United clearly want to win this season. But look at how Manchester United played under Moyes. Obviously they were frustrated.

Van Persie, who hopes to win the Premier League championship with Manchester United, seems to regret his choice to see the Red Devils stuck in 7th position. Several times in front of the media, Van Persie was not shy to express his disappointment with the Manchester United coach. Apart from Van Persie, new players like Pogba and Anthony Martial had not have a good harmony with David Moyes.

Meanwhile, the old Manchester United players seem to be in doubt. On the one hand they want to support Moyes because Sir Alex really trusts Moyes. However, on the other side, differences in coaching, differences in results and others, make them unable to trust Moyes as the coach of Manchester United.

In the midst of this anxiety, Manchester United welcomed Southampton at Old Trafford. Last season, Southampton beat Liverpool and gave Manchester United hope to win. But Southampton was also the one who thwarted Manchester United's Premier League champions.

Bennett, who was loaned out by Manchester United, will now face his own club. Bennet himself probably never thought that the club he played would be in higher level than Manchester United themselves.

Kazuki, who was released by Manchester United last season, will also face his old club for the second time. You could say Southampton had a close relationship with Manchester United.
