Emmerson Boyce bids to wreck party
EMMERSON BOYCE aims to prove his Wigan side are still Premier League quality by piling pressure on David Moyes in today’s Community Shield.
Relegated Latics began life in the Championship with a 4-0 defeat of Barnsley and 33-year-old defender Boyce said: “To play against Manchester United so early will show us how far we need to go to put our marker down in the Championship. It will be a massive game to show we can compete at that level.
“David Moyes obviously wants to make a statement (as Manchester United boss) but hopefully we can spoil the party. It will take some pressure away from him if he does win. He won’t want giantkilling headlines.”
