Man Utd chief Woodward: Sacking Moyes biggest decision of career

Manchester United vice-chairman Ed Woodward has broken his silence over the sacking of David Moyes. Woodward admits it was the toughest call of his career.

"I can't think of any bigger (decision)," he said. "It is certainly the most important role in the club by some distance and we didn't take the decision lightly. It was a difficult decision.

"It was a challenging year. In an ideal situation, I would have worked with (Sir) Alex (Ferguson) for a year. But now there is a lot more positivity."
