David Moyes gambled with Robin van Persie's fitness and is damaging Manchester United, says Raymond Verheijen And now, with Van Persie - currently out with a thigh strain - having suffered a string of injuries this term, the former Wales assistant manager during Gary Speed's reign has accused Moyes of "gambling" with the Holland attacker. Furthermore Moyes is technically deficient, according to the Dutchman. [Van Persie] had also just travelled for 30 hours and he had a nine-hour time difference. Normally the body takes a week to recover from that. And still, despite these difficulties, they immediately overtrained him because they want him to catch up on the rest of the team. Moyes literally said it in the media. You don't have to be Einstein to understand that is gambling. In the podcast Verheijen went on to question Moyes' credentials, and inferred that United will have no chance of becoming champions of Europe under the former Everton manager's stewardship. If you look at the track record of Moyes at Everton, in the nine pre-seasons that he did, he had seven or eight times an injury crisis in pre-season followed by a slow start to the season. Clearly that pattern repeated itself at United," he continued. The planning and conditioning part in his coaching is prehistoric. The second problem of David Moyes is his technical awareness. If I look at the Manchester United games, I don't think he's technically the best coach in the world to say it in a polite way. Finally, if you are a coach and haven't won anything in your life or haven't even played a Champions League game, and you have to coach a team which is expected to win the Champions League and you are coaching players who have almost won everything, that is a very tricky combination.
