Manchester United legend Sir Alex Ferguson has sympathy for David Moyes.
Now with Real Sociedad, Moyes succeeded Ferguson at United and lasted less than a season.
Ferguson told ESPN: "It's difficult, I think, replacing a guy who's been there 27 years. In terms of my philosophy and how I did things, all the staff were mine ...
"They say its better -- the second person coming after Alex Ferguson would be better off.
"David Moyes was unfortunate, it didn't work for him. Good man, good manager.
"And Louis van Gaal was finished with Holland, so I think there was a correlation there in terms of giving him the job."
