Moyes defends Louis van Gaal by insisting all is not lost
Joshua King: May have been forced off with injury but very much deserved his goal after harassing United’s inexperienced defence for much of the afternoon. A year ago the fans all showed their belief and that is the most important thing.
“We can fight for the FA Cup and fight also for the Europa League, so I think we have enough to fight for”.
By then, United had equalized when Fellaini bundled the ball into the back of the net after Memphis Depay had been denied by Bournemouth goalkeeper Artur Boruc.
“When you say that I am hired to make the difference, you are right”. In the second I think they deserved to draw.
But the former Barcelona manager asserted that the Old Trafford faithful should realise that the days when the club won the treble under Fergusson are long gone and Manchester United are no longer the formidable force they once were.
“We have eight injured players because Darmian and also Smalling we can add to this list, and Schweinsteiger is also suspended, so it’s nine players who are not able to play”.
United’s defeat, coming off the back of their Champions League reverse at VfL Wolfsburg, leaves them fourth in the table on 29 points, three behind leaders Manchester City.
“Of course I am concerned because we have lost two matches in a row”. The action kicks off at 12:30 p.m. EST so get ready for some incredible Premier league football. They have done everything, but they have lost. So we have to stick together and prepare our match against Norwich, and we have to win, otherwise it is more hard.
Diego Forlan believes Louis van Gaal is in desperate need of a trophy in order to remain as the Manchester United manager.
“I am working very hard and my players are working very hard to do everything we can”, he said.
Former United striker Josh King scored the goal that lifted Bournemouth out of the drop zone and ensured that Van Gaal’s week from hell got even worse.
“We really didn’t play well in the game”, said City manager Manuel Pellegrini, who blamed the lacklustre performance on a comedown after the team finished top of its Champions League group in midweek.
“I mean, we’ve had a few injuries”. I don’t talk about the past. “When the players want to perform in this way then I am always confident”.
The last thing the Dutchman needed was for his injury-hit team to fall behind at Bournemouth – but that’s what happened inside two minutes from one of the most weird goals of the season.
It’s not just about the amount you spend, though, it is the players you spend it on. When you’re a player you can feel it, you can see that, ‘ he said.
“While people maybe grieve in their own way, I found it easier to come in and play and try and do everyone proud”, the 25-year-old said.
