Lack of player support
One thing that was always said of Ferguson by his players was that the 72-year-old was a formidable figure that the squad wanted to impress – through a combination of fear and respect.
The same was never true for Moyes, who failed to make an impression on the playing staff and fell out early on with van Persie.
The Dutchman felt the manager’s training methods were archaic and aggravated his injuries, whilst a rift with Ryan Giggs also emerged.
