But the fear comes from the team on the pitch,” he added. United made Old Trafford a fortress under the reign of Sir Alex, however have only won one of their first four home fixtures in the league since Moyes took over, including defeat to West Brom and a goalless draw with Chelsea. But Moyes insists it is up to the players to turn their poor form around. The players have always been the people that have to turn out and do it, said Moyes. We had the opportunities to get the game finished off. I am disappointed to lose a goal so late on,” he added. Robin van Persie had given the home side the lead in the first half, before Adam Lallana struck late on to ensure the visitors went home with a point.
