David Moyes has admitted that he is "nervous" ahead of his first game in charge of Real Sociedad.

The Scot took charge of the Basque outfit less than two weeks ago after a period out of the game following his sacking from Manchester United.

His first game in charge of the Spanish side will be away at Deportivo La Coruna and Moyes has said that he will urge his side to be "positive".

"I'm nervous but I've got a good feeling," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"I have a concern about why we haven't won away from home this season so we have to make sure that changes.

"We will try to be positive. We need to become hard to beat."

The post is Moyes's first outside England, having previously only managed Preston, Everton and Manchester United.
