David Moyes has admitted that he cried when he was sacked by Manchester United.
The experienced Scot was replaced by Ryan Giggs on an interim basis before Louis van Gaal was appointed in the summer of 2014, after Moyes saw his contract at Old Trafford terminated after just eight months in charge, as lady luck failed to shine on the ‘chosen one’.
Moyes was backed for the job by his predecessor and Man United legend Sir Alex Ferguson, bringing an end to Moyes’ 11-year tenure in charge at Everton.
Speaking on Talksport on Thursday, Moyes was asked by host Alan Brazil when was the last time he cried.
"Probably when I was sacked by Manchester United," admitted Moyes.
United are now on their third permanent manager since Moyes’ departure, and the Scot – who has since coached at Real Sociedad, Sunderland and West Ham – does not believe much has improved at Old Trafford.
"I feel that since I took over to where they are just now, I don’t think there’s an awful lot of difference.
“When I took over it was needing a change and needing a turnaround of players, and that was all going to take time.
“I feel like in the four years or so since I was managing there, it’s probably not moved on much more.
“It’s quite similar, they’re still saying there needs to be changes and has to be things done.
“That time since I left hasn’t been used awfully well.”
