Not yet two weeks into his tenure as Manchester United manager and David Moyes is already under fire from some sections of the Old Trafford faithful. Having lost his first game as manager at the weekend (a non-competitive fixture against the Thai Singah Allstars in which he fielded a less than half strength team), David Moyes now appears to have missed out on signing two transfer ‘targets’ within a few days.
Arsenal? With transfer funds? Surely not, is that what we’re seeing here? If the papers are to be believed then the perennial penny-pinchers from the red half of North London seem back in the market for the world’s elite. So what does this mean for Arsenal? And for everyone else for that matter?
For as long as most of us can remember, Belgium has been known as a nation that is more associated with Stella Artois and chocolate than being a breeding ground for some of Europe’s top players, but that all seems to have changed lately.
“If some stupid fans don’t understand and appreciate such a gift this guy gave to the world they can go to hell”.
David Moyes begun his tenure at Manchester United this week, and like the new teacher at school, had a problem child in Wayne Rooney to deal with immediately. Moyes and Rooney’s relationship has been fractious at best since the former gave the latter his debut in professional football way back in 2002.
