The Portuguese winger was jeered by his own fans when replaced by Adnan Januzaj during the second half of Manchester United's 3-2 victory over Stoke on Saturday
Nani was taken off in the 58th minute after a largely unimpressive display and replaced by Adnan Januzaj with United 2-1 down.
"He is a regular and captain for Portugal so he is very talented," Moyes told reporters.
"There were one or two decisions he might have made better, but he got us the [first] goal with a lovely ball.
"We have a lot of competition for places in the wide areas, incredible competition, and that is what we're
looking for."
United eventually won the match 3-2 thanks to late strikes from Wayne Rooney and Chicharito, and Moyes admitted he was relieved to have snatched the three points.
"It was a win in the Premier League,” he added. “They are hard to come by and they are not easy.
"It was a big moment to win the game and hopefully we will continue to win games. If it's in the same fashion then we'll take it, but if we can make it a bit easier it will be great for the old ticker.” ------------------- goal.com
