Man Utd boss Moyes impressed by passion of Thailand fans

Manchester United boss David Moyes is delighted with the way Thailand fans have welcomed the squad this week.

Thousands trekked out to the Rajamangala Stadium to watch the Red Devils train this evening, with a sell-out 48,000 crowd guaranteed for tomorrow night's encounter with the Singha All Stars.

"When we arrived at the airport there were lots of screaming young ladies," said Moyes.

"I don't think it was for me but it was like some famous pop group arriving. It was incredible.

"We were taken on to pay respects to the king, who is in hospital just now. It was pandemonium when we got there.

"I have not been surprised but the scale of things has been fantastic."
