Oh come on - Ferguson had pedigree. Don't talk about competition, he took Aberdeen and overtook the Old Firm!

And he won European trophies as well.

Moyes won the 2nd Division title with Preston FFS.

He simply does not have the same pedigree, and that's why most people think he's out of his depth, including many (realistic) Man Utd fans.
