Robin Van Persie Plays Down David Moyes Talk, Says He Is Looking Forward to Winning More Titles with Manchester United This Season

Robin Van Persie quashed suggestions that he is unhappy with the coaching methods of new Manchester United manager David Moyes.

Reports suggested Van Persie was not quite satisfied with the new regime under Moyes, following the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson, who decided to retire as Manchester United manager at the end of last season.

Van Persie made a brilliant start under Moyes this season, scoring a brace in the Community Shield against Wigan Athletic.

The former Arsenal captain was also on hand to grab another double in the opening game of the season against Swansea, a match which United easily won 4-1.

However, Van Persie has cut a forlorn figure in United's last two games against Chelsea and Liverpool, where he failed to get much service.

However, according to the Dutch striker, who is currently way with the Netherlands national team for the World Cup qualifiers, there is absolutely no problem with Moyes and he is looking forward to another successful season with United.

"It's great working with the new manager David Moyes," Van Persie told De Telegraaf.

"He has his own style and methods and I like these.

"We are working very hard from the day we started our tour to Asia and Australia. This will result in good matches, that's for sure. There is a very good atmosphere at the club.

"I'm happy with the style of Moyes. He does his own training sessions, he's close with the players and prepares us with his staff very well for the next opponent. That keeps us in shape.

"Luckily, because the title of last year gave us hunger for more."

While all interest centered around the acquisition of Van Persie from Arsenal last year, this summer has been more about United's inability to complete any significant deals.

Only Marouane Fellaini was brought in, and that too right at the last few minutes of deadline day on Monday, after United missed out on the signings of Ander Herrera, Sami Khedira and Fabio Coentrao.
