Two clubs in opposite halves of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between Manchester United and Aston Villa. The first-division clash scheduled for 8:45 a.m. ET will be held at Old Trafford in Manchester and can be live streamed here free.
Signs of a revolt are surrounding Old Trafford. After another listless performance—this time in the Manchester derby—some of David Moyes' men are beginning to take aim at their manager. According to Mark Bosnich, club legend Ryan Giggs has fallen out with Moyes at Manchester. For the former United goalkeeper, this is just another sign that matters at the club are beyond repair (h/t to the Mirror). "It has been obvious for some time that things are not quite right there," Bosnich said.
"I'm hearing very strong rumours that Ryan Giggs has had a falling out with the management and that is a real shame because that is somebody there with exceptional experience," he added.
"There are things seeping out that things are not well behind the scenes. The fact that a lot of old players are coming out [blaming Moyes], like Paul Scholes, tells me there are definitely problems behind the scenes."
Will Moyes be able to salvage his season with a win at home against Aston Villa? Tell us @SportsWN
