David Moyes attends Olympiakos match ahead of Manchester United’s Champions League clash

David Moyes has been working overtime as he bids to retrieve some semblance of respectability for Manchester United’s season.

The beleaguered United boss was pictured in Greece tonight watching his team’s next Champions League opponents Olympiakos record a 2-0 win over Panionios.

Goals from Andreas Samaris and Marko Scepovic secured the three points for the Greek champions, who are unbeaten in 23 top-flight games this term.

United face the Piraeus-based side in the first leg of their last 16 tie on February 25 before a return leg at Old Trafford on March 19.

Moyes’ next assignment is at home to Premier League basement boys Fulham on Sunday, when the champions will be expected to reignite their push for a top-four finish – although at the rate they’re going domestically, actually winning the Champions League (don’t snigger) might be their best bet of qualifying for next season’s tournament.

These are Said to Be the Best Goalkeepers in the World, Ranking from 1-25

25. Stephane Ruffier, Saint-Etienne Had Stephane Ruffier not sustained a groin injury in 2011, Monaco might never have been relegated to Ligue 2. But he did, and they were, and that summer the then-24-year-old goalkeeper joined Saint-Etienne, rebuffing Manchester City in the progress. This season he played all 38 Ligue 1 matches for Les Verts for a second season in succession, conceding just 32 goals as his side finished a surprising fifth in the standings and qualified for the Europa League. 24. Pepe Reina, Liverpool Only Joe Hart kept more Premier League clean sheets than Pepe Reina in 2012-13. In a season that saw Liverpool finish a disappointing seventh in the English top-flight, the 30-year-old managed to keep things respectable from a defensive standpoint, conceding only 34 goals and stopping 88 per cent of the shots he faced. To finish the season he conceded just a single goal in his last four matches. 23. Mariano Andujar, Catania Only Parma managed ...

Do You Know Who Said, "Joe Hart is World's Best Goalkeeper"?

Joe Hart has been hailed as the world's best goalkeeper by Wayne Rooney after a stunning performance kept Manchester City's Champions League hopes alive. The Bleacher Report wrote. Rooney said all this after Joe Hart showed a very wonderful play when his team met Dortmund yesterday. According to Bleacher Report , the Manchester United striker was quick to praise City 's No 1 - also his England team-mate - after Hart produced a series of world-class saves in a pulsating 1-1 draw with Borussia Dortmund at the Etihad Stadium. Although City also created a number of chances, Hart's performance kept them in the contest before Mario Balotelli snatched a first point in Group D with a contentious last-minute penalty. Hart denied the German champions on eight occasions and Rooney - whose club manager Sir Alex Ferguson was in the crowd - was one of many observers hugely impressed. Hart could do little to prevent Dortmund taking the lead jus...
