Moyes confident Man Utd will swiftly recover from Man City loss

Manchester United manager David Moyes is supremely confident his side will bounce back from Sunday's 4-1 derby defeat at Manchester City.

United conceded two goals in each half as they suffered their heaviest defeat at City in just under a decade and although the performance was simply not good enough, Moyes expects his players to quickly recover.

"If ever there was a group of players I would expect [a reaction from after a defeat] it is the Manchester United players," said Moyes.

"They react and that is what they will do.

"Every manager has bad days and bad results. I am no different.

"I have been here [at the Etihad] with Everton many times and I don't think I suffered a defeat like this with Everton.

"I talked with the players the same as I would at any other club.

"They are good pros here and they know when they are bang at it and when they are not."
