HA HA HA! He's trying the fergie stuff already. Is this kidology or making excuses?
Manchester United manager David Moyes says he finds his club's start to the new season "hard to believe".
Among their first five Premier League games, the champions host Chelsea and Manchester City and Liverpool away.
Moyes said: "I find it hard to believe that's the way the balls came out of the bag, that's for sure."
The Premier League responded by saying: "We have absolutely assured him the process is random and above board. He has accepted those assurances."
A league spokesman also confirmed that Moyes had put his concerns to them directly.
However earlier on Thursday the Scotsman said: "I think it's the hardest start for 20 years that Manchester United have had.
"I hope it's not because Manchester United won the league quite comfortably last year.. the fixtures have been made much more difficult."
And as per usual with Man U there are no ramifications. If anyone else had made accusations basically accusing individuals and the EPL of being corrupt there would've been a right furore.
Nevermind, I'm sure I just heard my friend screaming 'Come on Arsenal' on the radio commentary which made me laugh quite a lot.
