David Moyes has admitted that the last time he cried was when Manchester United sacked him.
And the 56-year-old has now made an honest admission over how much pain it caused him while on talkSPORT this morning.
Asked by presenter Alan Brazil when it was that he last cried, Moyes said: 'Probably when I was sacked by Manchester United'.
It is not as though United's fortunes have taken a massive upswing in the time after Moyes's sacking.
They are on their third permanent manager, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho.
They are also no closer to capturing the Premier League and are currently sixth in the top flight, struggling to qualify for next season's Champions League.
Moyes is convinced they have not improved since he left Old Trafford: 'I feel that since I took over to where they are just now, I don't think there's an awful lot of difference.
'When I took over it was needing a change and needing a turnaround of players, and that was all going to take time.
'I feel like in the four years or so since I was managing there, it's probably not moved on much more.
'It's quite similar, they're still saying there needs to be changes and has to be things done. That time since I left hasn't been used awfully well.'
