Pep Guardiola: David Moyes will be determined to spoil Man City's celebrations
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola expects a stern challenge from David Moyes' West Ham side when they clash in a Premier League title decider on Sunday.
Moyes was a Scotland national team captain at Under-18 level, but had a largely unspectacular playing career. He played for Celtic, Cambridge United, Bristol City, Shrewsbury Town, Dunfermline Athletic and Hamilton Academical before his longest stint as a player at Preston North End.
At the end of the 2012/13 season, Moyes was appointed as Sir Alex Ferguson's successor at Manchester United. However, he was sacked nine months later before the end of a dismal 2013/14 campaign.
Moyes had unsuccessful spells in charge of Real Sociedad and Sunderland before moving on to West Ham United, where he's enjoyed greater fortunes over the course of two separate stints.
He saved West Ham from relegation twice, then steered the club into Europe in three consecutive seasons.
