Ferguson: There'll be no Man Utd pressure on Moyes

Sir Alex Ferguson has no doubts Manchester United will continue to support David Moyes.

The veteran Scot, who will be 72 on December 31, is adamant the manager must retain control of the team he is trusting to win matches.

"I remember saying to the board back in David [Gill]'s time the manager is the most important person at the club," said Ferguson to MUTV.

"He always will be. Whether it's Alex Ferguson, David Moyes or Matt Busby.

"The most important person in the club is the manager and that must always be sacrosanct.

"In fairness, the club have always stuck by that rigid belief."
