Crystal Palace manager Ian Holloway has backed David Moyes to make a success of his stint in charge of Manchester United.
Moyes agreed a six-year contract last week that will see him replace Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford at the end of the current season.
However, despite the fact that Ferguson won 38 trophies during his 27 years at the helm, Holloway has insisted that the task in hand "wont faze" current Everton boss Moyes.
"I have been telling anyone who would listen, for the last few years, that David Moyes is made for Manchester United. Succeeding Fergie would be a monumental task for anyone, but it won't faze Moyesie," Holloway told The Mirror. "He has a football brain that is only matched by his work ethic.
"And anyone who points at his lack of experience of winning trophies and managing in the Champions League doesn't understand the scope of the incredible job he has done over the past 11 years at Everton.
"To keep the Toffees competing in the top half of the Premier League, without a substantial annual transfer budget to spend in this era of bank-busting fees and eye-watering wages, has been a triumph of sheer talent. He is from the same stock as the man he is replacing, with the same virtues."
It has been reported that one of Moyes's first jobs will be to hold talks with Wayne Rooney, who has handed in a transfer request at United.
