Ex-Man Utd winger Morgan: Moyes not the right man for job

Former Manchester United winger Willie Morgan feels David Moyes isn't the right man for the job.

While Morgan believes Jose Mourinho would have been a better appointment at Old Trafford, he also accepts that Moyes is dealing with an ill-equipped squad.

"I don't think Moyes was the right man," said Morgan to the Manchester Evening News.

"He has bought Marouane Fellaini for £27.5million and given Nani a new five-year contract when they have been trying to sell him for ages.

"On Moyes, I rest my case. What credentials did he have to take over the biggest club in the world?

"But I have nothing against him. I hope he is successful. But I just don't see it. Not with the players he has got.

"United might have won the league by 11 points last year but Moyes inherited the weakest squad we have had for a long, long time.

"If Robin van Persie had not been in the team last year they would have finished halfway up the league.

"He was the difference and now Van Persie is injured."
