Under Moyes, preseason was shit, lost to some random Asian pub team, we finished 7th that season. In LvG's first season, we had great preseason, beating the likes of Real Madrid, Roma, won ICC cup, finished 4th in that season highest position post-Fergie. LvG's 2nd season, our preseason tour was above average, finished 5th.My initial comment was more to point out that results in pre-season don't necesseraly mean much. Two years ago we looked good early on then boom, we lost.
And as you say, if he can ditch players not good enough that's a big bonus.
See the pattern ? J/k.
Anyway I do think Mourinho shouldn't take it lightly. The soon he realizes Rojo, Jones, Depay,..are not United quality the better. It was LvG to blame but this team finished 5th because we fecking deserved it.
