Moyes gets show on the road

David Moyes admits he is relishing the challenge of replacing Alex Ferguson as Manchester United boss.

Moyes swept into what is now known as the AON Training Complex at 8am yesterday to begin the task of succeeding the most successful manager British football has ever known.

As anticipated, shortly afterwards came confirmation that Steve Round, Chris Woods — who will remain the USA’s goalkeeping coach until next year’s World Cup — and Jimmy Lumsden had followed Moyes down the East Lancs Road from Everton, filling the posts vacated by Mike Phelan, Eric Steele and Rene Meulensteen since Ferguson’s exit.
