Former Ireland star Sheedy lays into Moyes

Everton academy coach and former Ireland favourite Kevin Sheedy has put the boot into Manchester United manager David Moyes.

Sheedy — who famously scored for Ireland against England at the 1990 World Cup — has been on the Toffees’ coaching staff since 2006, and is currently in charge of the under-18s, so has first-hand experience of working under Moyes before he moved to Old Trafford last summer.

However, he was far from complimentary. “All of you out there Moyes was never interested in our youth team or players,” Sheedy, who played 314 times for Everton from 1982 to 1992, tweeted after the Red Devils’ 3-0 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday.
