The Barclays Premier League and The League Cup:
The first game of the Premier League saw United face Swansea at the Liberty Stadium. Two quick fire goals from Robin Van Persie and a brace from Welback sealed their victory.
For United’s first home game, Jose Mourinho arrived with his blues at Old Trafford. A lacklustre draw against Chelsea was hardly the encounter anyone expected.
The next match for them was “The Battle of the Reds” at Anfield. United were beaten by Liverpool, which fuelled #MoyesOut further.
In the next match, the reds bounced back with a victory over Crystal Palace. United then traveled across town for the most awaited match in the city of Manchester. The match to decide the fate of the city. The Manchester Derby. United were humiliated by City at the Etihad in a 4-1 defeat. David Moyes was done and dusted.
Another shock waited Moyes as the League Cup fixture was announced. United were to face Liverpool once again, this time at home. This was a match Moyes could not afford to lose. Manchester United rose up from the ashes to defeat Liverpool, courtesy Chicharito Hernandez.
Moyes was a relieved man. He was looking forward to building upon the winning momentum, with WBA visiting Old Trafford over the weekend. Little did he know, that he will be in for one of the biggest shock from the Baggies. West Brom defeated them 3-2, bagging their first win at the Theatre of dreams since 1978.
Currently, doubt lingers in the mind of every United fan about the credibility of their new manager. However, every United fan knew from the start that the transition was never going to be easy. David Moyes has inherited the squad from Sir Alex, but he needs time to install his ideology, confidence and faith in them. The Premier League season is a marathon and not a sprint. Every Old Trafford faithful needs to get behind the manager and their team at this moment.
In the words of Sir Alex, “Your job now is to stand by our new manager. That is important ”.
Manchester United travel to Ukraine to face FC Shakhtar Donetsk in their next encounter. Victory in Europe is never easy and always hard earned.
Losing this match will pile up even more misery on the new manager. David Moyes must look forward to win the match, gain a momentum and build on it for the rest of the season.
