Van gaal never spent 250mil! Bot

h Herrera and Shaw weren't his signings! His biggest big money signing were Martial and Di Maria who left as soon as he came and[b] his transfer fee were recovered.
[/b]
Upon all the money spent on Pogba, Carrick had to be brought back into the fold!

Why are you people arguing with someone that thinks Moyes was the right person for United? The same Moyes who has NEVER won anything of note in his managing career and has subsequently flirted with relegation everywhere he has gone.

Why waste your time with such a person?

Kagawa10:


Van gaal won the FA cup in his final season and was in the top 4 in the previous season.

Mourinho would have to archive similar feat or better before any compliment would be given.

He's done well so far though.

Even if we go with the silly notion of yours that they weren't his signings, he spent close to 200 million.

Your poor diction aside, how was Di Maria's fee recovered when we bought for 60 and sold him for 44.5?
Is your brain still on christmas break?

Quick question for you, who signed Luke Shaw and Herrera?
Louis Van Gaal right? Wrong! Van Gaal had said that it would be his final job when managing the Dutch national team. He certainly wasn’t spending his time scouting players at
Southampton, just in case a club job came up. The United
job fell into his lap and due to commitments at the World
Cup it meant that Louis wouldn’t be able to concentrate
solely on United till very late in the summer. United had already scouted and prepared the deals for Luke Shaw and
Ander Herrera. Van Gaal was told that the club lacked midfielders and had no left back but that those two
deals were ready to rectify that. He agreed. It’s fair to say
that when he worked with both players he was completely
underwhelmed. The first few months of his reign were taken up with criticism of Luke Shaw in particular. He did not fit
the model of what Van Gaal expected from his full backs at
all. To Shaw’s credit he worked hard on his fitness and all
round game and its a minor tragedy that when he did begin
to finally win over the manager he suffered such a terrible
injury.
Herrera, as we already explained, was not to the managers
liking at all. Time and again he was rebuked for chasing the
ball and ending up ahead of the play. Behind the scenes
Herrera likes a moan too. The Spanish contingent at United
are a very tight bunch. Upset one and you upset them all.

BushWickBill:


The Moyes who said United was apiring to be like City.
The Moyes who lost by 3-nil at Old Trafford to Liverpool and City in the same season.
The Moyes who kept us oscillating between 7th and 10th on the table.

Let's be listening to his "sample space".

As for the purple font imbeci/e, I'm glad no one responds to that one.

BushWickBill:


You would want to argue that jose spent lots of money this season and is in 6th.
But you don't want to hear how one grumpy old fart spent a quarter of a million players mostly on duds over two seasons and ended up with modest achievements.

So choose which side of your double-standard you want to stand on.

Scrap metal managers like Harry Redknapp and Roberto Martinez have actually won the FA Cup, while Wenger is saving himself from being an utter failure by clutching to two FA Cup wins. When you think that Tony Pulis, Alan Pardew, David Moyes, Kenny Dalglish have reached the final of the same FA Cup you are singing to the heavens about, I don't know whether to bracket it along any list of serious achievements a club manager will be putting on a CV to manage a top club like United.

Lana1:
Ode ni e! I for ignore ur rants. But this one don pass foolishness.
How is Moyes dat took Champions to seventh with poor performances all through the season better than Mourinho's United. Were we ever even close to the top 4 wen Moyes was here??
I'd say u should use ur sense but we all know u dont ve

RooRuudRonSaha:
if you arent a fool, did moyes end the season, how many players did he purchase, u deserve a bullet to your dumb head.

why oga dey reveal he secrets

Kagawa10:


Harry Redknap and Martinez didn't win the Fa cup in their first 2 yrs in the EPl!

Kagawa10:


Van gaal was a coach who had to deal with number of injuries and rely on kids. At one time, we even had Fellaini playing in the striker role after Rooney got injured and the likes of CBJ and Varela as fullbacks. We didn't even have a worldclass striker such as Ibra except for Rooney who stunk the whole place with his sluggishness until Rashford emergence.

Kagawa10:



[s]That's to tell you the lot of things Van gaal faced yet still [b]archived [/b]something![/s]

Kagawa10:



Why is it now a bad thing if similar feat is expected from Mourinho?

Kagawa10:





This already showed Both Herrera and Shaw weren't Van gaal signings!
I really find it funny when people claims a coach who was still at the worldcup with his Holland team at the time both players were signed, was signing players for United.

Abegi!

BTW, Bastain wasn't signed for 14mil like Mirror stated, he was signed for 7.??mil, half of that fees. Once you've calculated everything Van gaal spent minus the 45mil recouped from Di maria sales, it wasn't even up to 150mil in 2 seasons! Mourinho spent 150mil in a season!

afrodoc2:

I stopped believing in Van Gaal totally after that Spurs debacle in which he played Young in attack and Martial on the wing.

Oasis007:




How many Matches remained pls, and let's assumed he won the remaining Matches - would he have made Top 4?!

RooRuudRonSaha:
your opinion is yours mine is mine, anyone that doesnt like mine can kiss the dust. Mourinho hasnt done anything worthy of praises. Mourinho ends up 4th and United fans see it as a success, no that is a downgrade. Madrid wont waste time to wield the bix axe on such a coach.

Leyqute:


Seriously bros? Na wah for you o.

How can you be supporting Moyes? someone that wanted to bring Man Utd down to the level of Everton?

RooRuudRonSaha:

RooRuudRonSaha:
where did i mention my love for moyes now, someone said moyes too united to 7th from champions level, where did mourinho take chelsea before he was fired last season.

RooRuudRonSaha:
mourinho's reserves 0 moyes's reserves 2. i know the mentioned managers are not coaching the teams.

PietroRico:
Shït's about to go down on bayansh thread...

In his first United presss conference on Thursday afternoon, Van Gaal said: 'Shaw and Herrera were already on the list. I gave my approval because I like them.

I’m grateful to him because he signed me and so gave me the opportunity to play more than 70 games, in two years, at arguably the world’s largest club.

Jose Mourinho’s phoney war with United’s under-performing and over-grumbling stars is over. Battle lines have been well and truly drawn.

Some of United’s biggest names have been told they can go and for a variety of reasons. The clearout is set to begin in January, depending on whether the players can find other clubs.

Wayne Rooney

The papers this morning are full of stories that Rooney has been told he can go and that United’s players are supposedly unhappy with training. It is no coincidence that every other time Rooney has faced questioning of some kind a story has then appeared in the papers where United stars are critical of their manager. We have been informed, on numerous occasions, about Rooney and his representative leaking stories to the press. In fact, he even sought to become more friendly with sections of the press during the summer. Foresight as to how events might pan out maybe? You may question his ability on the field but you can’t question his knowledge of how to work the system. It is worth noting that under Louis Van Gaal, a manager that bent over backwards to accommodate Rooney and his demands, it was the captain and his constant anonymous sniping that did for him.

We do know that it wasn’t originally for footballing reasons that Rooney was eventually dropped. Though we have been unable to confirm just how true the rumours are of him threatening and manhandling Marcus Rashford are.

Michael Carrick

Carrick is United’s vice captain, yet when Rooney was dropped it was Chris Smalling that took over the armband. This is no accident. As is the lack of playing time he has had this season despite his good performances when he has featured. Carrick also seems to suffer from the sort of loose lips that afflict the captain. Originally only kept on in the summer to help the new manager and the younger players he is now seen as a problem behind the scenes. When the class of 92 talk about United they all seem to wax lyrical about the qualities of Carrick. This is no accident.

Henrik Mkhitaryan

We first started to hear rumours of the Armenian’s unhappiness at United after the derby. The talk then was that he had burst into tears and asked to leave the club after his substitution. The staff at the club have been staggered at how mentally weak Mkhitaryan is and Mourinho has already decided he just doesn’t trust him. The current situation with his supposed injury is an interesting one. Notice just how much Mourinho bristles when he is asked about Mkhitaryan and the unconvincing way he talks about needing match sharpness. Already United are exploring ways to recoup the £26 million paid for him only a few months ago.

Matteo Darmian

At least this one is purely a football decision. Mourinho doesn’t believe Darmian is solid enough defensively for the role he wishes his full backs to perform at United. The plan is to offload Darmian back to Italy in the January window when United will go all out to sign Fabinho from Monaco. The Brazilian stands at 6ft 2 and is quick enough to be a threat down the flank too.

Jose Mourinho feels that many at United have let him down and although they might survive the original cull, once it begins, be assured that their card has been marked too. Losing weakly against his old foe Guardiola was bad enough for Mourinho but the way the team accepted a hammering at Chelsea caused serious alarm. He feels now that some are openly trying to sabotage his time at Old Trafford.
