Manchester United are offering no comment on reports that David Moyes is set to be sacked as manager.
Manchester United say David Moyes has not been sacked but declined to comment when asked about the manager's longer-term future.
National newspapers say the club will dispense with the Scot's services following a poor season.
However a United spokesperson would only confirm Moyes has not been sacked.
When pressed on whether the manager would leave before the end of the season, the spokesperson added, "we do not comment on speculation".
Now all the news media are speculating, it would be sensible to jettison him now. A perfect opportunity. Makes the club look strong. Leak a rumour of incompetence and let the press heap the blame on the manager.
That would be the smart move.
