Goes without saying that judging a manager after a handful of games makes no sense and David Moyes deserves time and full support.
When Alex Ferguson announced his retirement and David Moyes was appointed, even the heartiest of fans had doubts but as Fergie said out loud that fans have to back the new manager, so they are doing it.
So far 3 PL games and 4 points i.e. 5 points behind rivals and leaders Liverpool who defeated them last week at Anfield. Moreover, the worst of transfer windows in years, many top players linked but not many wanted to join and Devils ended up with only one major signing, Moyes’s very own Fellaini.
Fair to say Moyes got the worst of early PL fixtures possible but the results are at least a little if not a lot painful. The question is, just how much pain can Manchester United fans endure?
Already people have started claiming that United will not win the title as City and Chelsea are much much stronger and have better managers. Some even suggest that they may even fail to qualify for Champions League next season. Whatever happens, we shall see.
For now, the focus is all on the supporters. Ferguson finished 11th in his first season, if he was sacked then, may be United would have never won so many titles. However, he did not take over a Champion side like Moyes has.
United do not have a habit of changing managers frequently but things can go differently as Fergie is no longer there.
Manchester United fans will be patient but to what extent. What is the exact limit they will probably be calling for the manager’s head?
A place out of top 4 in January or at the end of the season? Not qualifying for KO rounds of Champions League? Not winning a major trophy this season? Or well when Fergie says so? Have your say.

People are always judged by their first impression. He was at Everton for more than ten years yet he couldn’t conduct a decent deal during transfer. Roberto Martinez managed a master stroke.
Manure are LOST IN TRANSITION,Woodward & Moyes are doing a great GREAT job.Give them men 26 year contracts,Your so called rule IS OVER.Bacon face & Gill are HISTORY lol
With the likes of Adnan Janusai,Jessie Lingard Nick Powell Larnell Cole knocking on the door of the first team but not quite ready and a squad of champions already in the first team anyone who writes United off this early is doing so out of wishfull thinking and secretly they know it.I dont expect United to win the league at a canter like last season but they will definately be thereabouts at the end of the season with possibly a few ups and downs throughout the season after the first few games I personally dont like the way he leaves Van Persie isolated up front ,United seemed to be more fluid in the final third under Sir Alex !!
