More intriguing claims about the supposed rancour that is rife within Old Trafford these days from the Guardian's Daniel Taylor.
One of Moyes' coaching staff is reportedly known to the players by the affectionate sobriquet "Fuck off (name)" because that is the near obligatory response whenever he instructs anyone to do anything.
What he really needs, though, is the players' backing and the latest leaks out of the dressing room are not exactly glowing for Moyes and his staff, in particular the coach who now goes by a deeply unflattering nickname. Footballers can be brutal sometimes and, behind his back, that coach is apparently being referred to as "fuck off (name)" – on the basis that is so often the first response when they hear his instructions.
