Manchester United boss David Moyes insists he and Robin van Persie are rock solid. There's been reports that Van Persie does not get on with his boss, to the extent of gossip that he would not have signed for United had he known Sir Alex Ferguson was going to leave after a single season almost becoming accepted fact.
Moyes has never understood why.
"I keep saying it is untrue but for some reason people don't want to write it or hear it," he said.
"But it is the fact. Most people know that I talk pretty straight. If there was something wrong I would be the first one to come out and say it.
"I have a really good relationship with Robin, as I do with all the players.
"But when you are not winning, people look for reasons, and probably think I am not getting on with Robin.
"It couldn't be further from the truth."
