Rare occurrence if he didn't...heard him do so the other day. As for United's "great traditions of not competing"...United have broken the British transfer record umpteen times...30 million for Rio Ferdinand Davie?
To be fair to him he's right that he was treated unfairly by United. It was unfair to him that he was awarded the job by Ferguson in the first place as no-one should be given a job that they are out of their depth at. He was lost from day one.
Davie cursing the fact United missed out on Bale, Kroos etc...perhaps if United had a quality manager at the time they would have been able to attract them.
In terms of the catastrophic 8 months or so in charge...he bought Fellaini (and this weeks after the clause kicked in which made the yard dog more expensive), he broke records left, right and centre...unbeaten streaks against teams lasting decades were broken (there's at least five), 83 crosses in a home game against Fulham, worst league placing in three dacades, god awful Moyes style football. Among his Roy Hodgson-esque quotes, going into a United-RS match he spoke of Liverpool as being "favourites", he spoke of Man City being the benchmark for United, and he spoke of getting to the CL quarters as being a great achievement...these are the words of a loser. A Manchester United manager bowing down to rivals, calling reaching the quarters a great achievement for a club that had been in three finals in the previous six years...he had no place being at United. Ferguson's reputation is wrongly being enhanced by the years since he left as it was his whim of choosing Moyes that did a lot of damage.
