Luke Littler believes David Moyes should have been given more time at Manchester United.

Moyes is now back to working miracles on Merseyside, much like what earned him the top job at the Red Devils.

However, the Scot didn't last one season in the dugout at Old Trafford after being handed the unenviable task of replacing Sir Alex Ferguson.

Littler - who is promoting Specsavers Best Worst Team campaign - said: "Maybe you could have given David Moyes more time," when asked how he would fix the Red Devils.

He added: "I’ve seen Sir Alex’s last season, Jose Mourinho do very well with us, Louis van Gaal win the FA Cup and at the minute it’s just a case of getting the old players out of the club and bring some fresh ideas to the club."

And the ex-Tottenham boss turned to Littler for a bit of motivation: “In football you’ve got to stick together as a whole team.
