Queens Park Rangers midfielder Joey Barton has defended David Moyes, who lost his position as manager of Manchester United earlier this morning.
Rumours of a potential sacking gathered pace on Monday and it was confirmed this morning that the Scot had been relieved of his duties following a disappointing first season in charge.
Barton has claimed that Moyes "is a good manager", but struggled to come to terms with following Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford.
"Still think Moyes is a good manager. Maybe too much too soon Fergie was always a tough act to follow. Surely [Louis] Van Gaal is the logical choice?" Barton tweeted.
Ryan Giggs has been appointed as interim manager at the Premier League champions.
