David Moyes

Moyes’ first game as Manchester United manager ended in a 1-0 defeat as
Teeratep Winothai gave the Singha All Stars victory in Bangkok.
No manager likes to lose, especially
their first game for a new club, and in this instance, replacing a man
who served for 26 years and won 13 Premier League titles.
But Moyes can take several positives
from this first run-out, as Adnan Januzaj in the first half and Wilfried
Zaha – following his introduction in the second – impressed hugely.
And with Robin van Persie among those
set to link up on Sunday in Sydney, where United will spend a week in
rather cooler temperatures, the Scot can at least start to feel the hard
work has begun in earnest.
It was a rather understated opening,
though. With conditions more stamina-sapping than at any stage since
United arrived in Thailand on Thursday morning, the Red Devils wisely
adopted a cautious approach to the first match of an eight-game
pre-season campaign.
