Manchester United’s fall this season has been spectacular, made even more so by the inept man that has orchestrated it.
Last night’s game against Man City was for some a chance for Moyes to somehow salvage some credibility and guess what he failed. Spectacularly.
Former players have been somewhat kind to Moyes this season with most backing him but slowly you get the impression the tide is turning with more speaking out about United’s problems and last night we saw just that from the usually mild mannered Edwin Van Der Sar.
The big goalkeeper was part of one a United team that grew to see success as a norm so to see this incarnation of United, including players he used to play alongside must be baffling.
Prior to the game, the keeper pleaded:
Just entertain me tonight please!! #MUFC

The tweet sums up everything that has gone wrong this season, it is as if he knew a win was beyond us so as per Sir Matt Busby’s demands we at least entertain the fans who have shelled out money to come and see us play, something we have failed to do largely this season.
5 minutes later though Van Der Sar was online again shocked at United’s seemingly early capitulation after conceding after 43 seconds:
This was not exactly what I meant…

As you well know United failed to entertain last night slumping to a 3-0 defeat and Edwin is yet to tweet since, think Ruud or Jaap needs to pop round and see if he’s ok…
