Moyes Sent Packing As United Take Off

Moyes spotted at Florida airport for first time since his sacking.

Former Manchester United manager David Moyes was pictured for the first time since his dismissal as manager of Manchester United.

Moyes, 51, was sacked just 10 months in to his 6 year contract with the Red Devils, however with United's worst season for many years and the club not being in the Champions League places his future with the club had been under scrutiny.

Moyes, who was personally chosen by United's legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson to take over from him after 26 years at the Manchester club could not keep United in the top four in the Premier League and has seen United have their worst home record in the Premier League, with West Brom, Everton and Tottenham some of the teams to take all three points from Old Trafford.

Moyes' sacking meant that a current United legend in Ryan Giggs took over as United boss on a player/Interim basis with former team mates and United legends Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt assisting him, and it was the perfect start for Giggs' United side as they looked liked the 'old style' way that we're used to seeing from the Red Devils as they came out as 4-0 winners over relegation-threatened Norwich.

Rooney scored two for United as they thrashed Norwich.

Wayne Rooney and substitute Juan Mata both scored a couple of goals for United in the win as well. Mata's two goals mean that he has scored five goals in his last four appearances since joining from Chelsea.

Next up for United and Giggs is another home game, this time against another relegation-threatened team in Sunderland at the Theatre of Dreams as Sunderland aim to avoid the drop and United aim to clinch a Europa League spot.

United Told £125 Million By Spurs For Bale

United Told £125 Million By Spurs For Bale

In yet another twist in the Gareth Bale saga, David Moyes has not denied that he and Manchester United have put in a bid for the Welsh International winger in a post-match interview with Sky Sports' Geoff Shreeves.

He told him that Manchester United always try to sign the best players and that he is a fantastic player, however when the reporter asked 'Can you tell us any more on this', Moyes simply replied with 'I can't, sorry.'

Bale has already told Spurs that he wants to join Real Madrid but talks have temporarily stalled as Bale has a trademark on his goal celebration, the 'Eleven of Hearts', but Real Madrid always like to take 50% of player's own revenue to be able to sign more 'World Class' players, however Bale wants to keep as much of his own earnings to himself rather then giving half of it to Madrid.

However today (Tuesday 27th August) Bale refused to turn up to training. However Sky Sports discovered Bale in Central London, in which they believe was a meeting with Bale's representatives.

This next week will be decisive in Bale's future at Spurs and Madrid certainly won't give up on Gareth Bale easily.
