Moyes’s bad form against cross-town rivals continues

Even before the game began, Moyes was fully aware of the consequences that defeat in this fixture meant. He came into the game, without a win from his other two high profile encounters against Chelsea and Liverpool and was barely in need of a win against a top side.

And City looked like the perfect opposition to right the wrongs as he looked to continue his good form against the citizens from his Everton days.

Unfortunately for Moyes, things didn’t go according to plan and just like his predecessor, he witnessed a humiliating defeat by the city rivals, early in his reign as United boss. Defeat left United reeling and facing a daunting task ahead as Moyes looks to get his team back on track before it is too late.
