Van Gaal's Stunning Manchester United Transformation by RobinHez(m): 10:36pm On Apr 12, 2015
If there is one thing that sums up Manchester
United’s transformation under Louis Van Gaal, it is
the identity of their four goalscorers in this
breathless derby victory.
Ashley Young, Marouane Fellaini, Juan Mata and
Chris Smalling have all faced significant questions
over their futures in the last year - but tonight they
are the golden boys of the Van Gaal revolution.
In a pre-season friendly here last summer, Fellaini
was jeered off the pitch. He was the symbol of
United’s disastrous season under David Moyes and
the club tried to force him out.
When the Belgian was substituted seven minutes
from time on Sunday, 75,000 supporters gave him a
well-deserved standing ovation for a performance
that encapsulated a United display full of intensity,
desire and movement.
While summer arrivals like Angel Di Maria, Radamel
Falcao and Marcos Rojo warm the bench, Van Gaal
has come good on his promise to improve the
players he inherited at Old Trafford.
The Dutchman prides himself on his coaching skills
but even he might have thought he had is work cut
out with some of the players that struggled so badly
under Moyes.
Young’s most memorable moments for United until
this point have probably been related to diving or
bird droppings falling in his mouth - but he tore City
apart, providing two assists to add to his 14th minute equaliser.
There will be a sense of frustration among some
United fans that Van Gaal took so long to get it right.
He spent months ignoring Mata and Ander Herrera
while testing various formations that produced
stodgy and unconvincing performances.
Now, in the 4-3-3 that Van Gaal has preferred
throughout his career, United are gearing up for a
title challenge next season, with this victory all but
confirming that they will return to the Champions
League.
It is a reflection of a manager who is a proven
winner. Van Gaal has faced some deserved questions this season over some of his decisions, but no-one has ever tried to argue with a CV that includes titles in three different countries.
