Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson insists that the process used to select David Moyes as his successor at Old Trafford was "perfect".

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has insisted that the process to select David Moyes as his replacement at the club was "perfect."

The 73-year-old - who retired from football management in 2013 - chose the former Everton manager to succeed him at Old Trafford, and Ferguson has maintained that Moyes was the right choice for the job despite his sacking in April 2014.

"Once I'd conveyed it [Ferguson's decision to retire] to the Glazers, then the process started of looking for successors," Ferguson is quoted by the Daily Mail as saying.

"We chose David Moyes. He had been consistent in his job at Everton, had a good spell there - 11 years and showed appetite. No one knew apart from the Glazers, David Gill and myself.

"When we appointed him, the press were enthusiastic for a British manager. Unfortunately, somehow it didn't work out for David. The process was perfect. It was a good process."

Moyes won 27 of his 51 games in charge of Manchester United, losing 15.
