| Liverpool fans pose with a David Moyes statue outside Anfield ahead of the game with Chelsea |
David Moyes statue unveiled outside Anfield in publicity stunt... a week after Grim Reaper sees off sacked Man United boss...Axed Manchester United boss David Moyes will make a shock appearance at Anfield on Sunday, but not in the way you might expect.
Paddy Power have unveiled a statue of the Scot, for 'his services to Liverpool Football Club'.
The publicity stunt comes a week after a man dressed as the Grim Reaper sat behind Moyes at Goodison Park in his last game as manager.
Visiting his former side Everton on Sunday, the fancy dress was apt seeing as he was sacked just two days later.
This week's 11 foot bronze statue won't be seen around Old Trafford any time soon, but Liverpool fans are sure to appreciate the humour.
They revealed a 'Moyes is a football genius' banner when beating United earlier this season, as they march towards the title while their rivals languish in seventh place.
Brendan Rodgers' side can pick up huge momentum in their search for their first Premier League crown by beating Chelsea on Sunday.
It could be a nervy afternoon for Steven Gerrard and Co, but this statue may allow the supporters to forget about the stress momentarily.
