David Moyes aims sly dig at Man United by claiming time given to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made a 'big difference' in turning club's fortunes around – after West Ham boss was only given 10 months in the job

David Moyes has taken a sly dig at his former employers Manchester United by suggesting that the only reason why the club is succeeding is because Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been given time to do so.

Despite a few rocky patches in his two years as United manager, Solskjaer has got his squad singing off the same hymn sheet and they are now arguably at their most competitive since Sir Alex Ferguson retired eight years ago.

Moyes was the man chosen by Ferguson to take over and was subsequently given a huge six-year deal at Old Trafford.
