A Twitter search for “At least David Moyes…” shows some Man United fans are pining for the bad old days

Louis van Gaal would do well to steer clear of social media if he wants to be able to look any Manchester United fan in the eye again.

After another 0-0 draw midweek, supporters are reaching the end of their tether with the Dutch coach who can put them top of the Premier League on Saturday with a win at Leicester. A win, though, would require a goal from the seventh highest scorers in the English top flight and United fans aren't sure if that is a realistic possibility. They didn't like the crossing under David Moyes, they didn't like his paper-thin defence but, now, they miss those wildly unpredictable days of seventh place. It's gotten that bad that some are actually pining for the Scotsman...

At least Moyes was good at one of two elements. Louis is only good at one of two elements.

At least Moyes was kind enough to let United go behind every week so they could try to fight back.

Now if Moyes could just get it right in England.
