Tommy Fleetwood said on the Men in Blazers podcast episode released on Tuesday:
“He (Moyes) has had such a great effect since he’s been back... From what I’ve heard, from some of the players, everybody has just spoken really positively of him as a manager… We’ve had some amazing times under him…
I think he did such an amazing job last season and we’ve made a great start this season. I think you just have so much faith in him and no matter what happens, you just feel David Moyes is the right man for the job.”

“His (Pep Guardiola) golf swing’s good! He is obsessed with golf. Like I say, whenever I try and pick stuff up, he’s too busy talking about his golf swing.”

“That’s a great question. He (Pep) is always looking for more. He doesn’t accept where he is and try to play his game.”
