David Moyes believes he was treated "unfairly" during his time as Manchester United manager.

Moyes returns back to Old Trafford for the first time since leaving the Red Devils. The Black Cats boss succeeded Sir Alex Ferguson as United boss and was sacked after 10 months in charge.

Moyes feels he should've been allowed more time to rebuild the squad he inherited from Ferguson.

Jermain Defoe has been linked back to his former club in West Ham United. Moyes says he would be very "surprised" if Sunderland did any business for their leading goalscorer.
