"It's a big job, but I wasn't the slightest bit interested.
"No disrespect to Watford, but I won't be leaving United unless I get the boot or something really attractive comes up."

"Realise it sounds like sour grapes - but I wouldn't have been impressed if Levein had been appointed. Not all Scots managers can be Fergie, Moyes or Owen Coyle - ask the Foxes!"
