Man Utd boss Moyes: We always knew it would be tough start

Manchester United boss David Moyes isn't panicking after defeat at Liverpool.

The tough start was always going to be a major test for the Reds and the small matter of the Manchester derby remains on the horizon.

"I always knew it was going to be a tough ask," insisted Moyes. "No matter if Sir Alex was sitting here playing these games. It's undoubtedly a very big fixture for both clubs and Chelsea was also a very big fixture.

"I think we're coming out of these three games with not as many points as we'd like but have shown we're in reasonably good shape. It's maybe a little unjust that we are not up there towards the top of the championship."
