Manchester United Transfer News: Moyes in no Pressure to Purchase Players in January Despite Poor Run
Manchester United are currently in their worst position in the Premier League in decades and an influx of new faces may help their cause of reestablishing themselves as a top-contending club, but manager David Moyes believes otherwise.
"In any transfer window you don't want to be bringing in a full batch of players, so I think there's a period of time that it takes," Moyes told The Mirror.
"The last one was a difficult one after just joining the club, so we've got a window in January where, if we think if it's right for the club, we'll do so."
"If not, we'll look again in the summer. This club is always looking to bring in the best talent and that won't change."
The problem, however, is not the lack of talent or prospects in Europe or the world, but Moyes' ability to lure players to go to Old Trafford.
The former Everton boss does not seem to feel any pressure in spite of the Red Devils' poor run, as United has a history of providing stability insofar as a manager's tenure is concerned.
"I don't think I'll feel under pressure personally to do it [buy in January] as I'll try to do the right things," he added.
"I tend to take my time and try to assess what are the best talents to bring in. You can see that from the players I brought in at Everton."
But, perhaps it was just an exceptional circumstance for the Manchester club since it was the great Alex Fergusson who preceded him.
In any case, Moyes should learn how to maximize his resources at the time being by making promising players like Wilfried Zaha and Shinji Kagawa realize their full potential, and not to dwell on and compare his stint with the Toffees vis-à-vis Manchester United. Otherwise, he will be shown the way out earlier than expected.
