LONDON -- Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger doesn't believe Sunderland counterpart David Moyes is still suffering from his experience at Manchester United, and praised Black Cats striker Jermain Defoe for his "absolutely amazing" longevity.
Moyes is back in the Premier League for the first time since he was fired by Man United in 2014, just 10 months after taking over from Sir Alex Ferguson. He then spent less than a year at Real Sociedad in an unsuccessful spell in Spain before being hired by Sunderland this summer.
He is under pressure again, however, with Sunderland bottom of the table having taken just two points from nine games and speculation is growing his job could be under threat, but Wenger said he didn't think the disappointment at United has affected Moyes' results since.
