Moyes arrives at Old Trafford

New United manager takes official charge.

LONDON: David Moyes officially started his job as manager of Manchester United, taking over from Alex Ferguson, who resigned in May after 26 years in the post.

Club officials confirmed yesterday the appointments of Steve Round as assistant manager, Chris Woods as goal-keeping coach and Jimmy Lumsden as coach.

“I have worked with Steve, Chris and Jimmy for a number of years and I am delighted they have decided to join me at this great club,” said Moyes. “I have great faith that together, we can build upon the success this club has enjoyed over many years.”

United’s opening tour match against Singha All Stars in Bangkok on July 13 will be Moyes’s first in charge of the English champions.
