Agreed to disagree.No he is not. Very limited and one dimensional. He hasn't been a top manager for an age

I agree with you. And no one is talking about his first stint for Duch NT or his second time at Barca. Both were disasters.No he is not. Very limited and one dimensional. He hasn't been a top manager for an age
Exactly.Did a good job, the Dutch have some talented players but compared to other top teams it’s genuinely chalk and cheese in some areas. A quarter final is about right - semis would have been overachieving and they were only a shootout away.
VVD - had a good second half of the season last year but generally is on the wane post ACL and nowhere near the levels he was.
FDJ - often flatters to deceive
Gakpo/Depay - talented but doesn’t stack up to the attacking talent of other teams.
Overall his record with that bunch is superb imo, esp considering Belgium and Germanys fortunes.

Not here. Couldn't stand him as a manager for us.He wasn't wrong and we absolutely did him dirty. I was happy to see him go at the time, he was past it (as was his replacement), but he was a great manager and great personality who've I've a lot of time for (unlike his replacement).
Completely deserved to go. If any manager misses out on top 4 he simply has to go never mind the absolute shite he served upI know we did him dirty but he was an abysmal manager for us, played some of the worst football I’ve ever seen at the club.
if you have a lisp there isThere is no WE in it either.

I always had a feeling he had Aspergers but even the world top psychologists would be too afraid to even suggest that to him.Van Gaal is a megalomanic cnut that will never ever put any blame on himself for anything. Having said that. It was kind of a mess at United surely?
Ten Hag solved this by game week 3.He was not wrong, f*ucked over by Woody and the Glazers.
How come EtH has been able to do much better?He was not wrong, f*ucked over by Woody and the Glazers.
LVG turned down Kroos when we had him in the bag and wanted to spend 100m on Muller when 100m was a feck tonne of money.In fairness to LVG, his time at United coincided with a 'disneyland' phase at the club whereas ETH has landed after some upheaval behind the scenes and a real desire to return to our roots, hence the backing of ETH when he has had to take some big decisions. Nevertheless ETH done a job here that would still be beyond the reach of a latter day LVG.

Nah, think it's narcissism. Initially magnetic, charming, funny until you say something he doesn't like, then he will try to publically shame and destroy you. Convinced some people are out to get him personally and in constant need of praise and adoration. Bit like Donald Trump, though substantially less evil.I always had a feeling he had Aspergers but even the world top psychologists would be too afraid to even suggest that to him.
LvG is one of the reasons for the big mess but I guess his ego won't accept that. His signings was the worst by any manager at this club.. Morgan, Bastian, Depay, Darmian, Rojo, Di Maria, Falcao and saying no to Kroos
“This was my very last match. My third term as a head coach. In that time I coached 20 matches but I didn't lose a single one. I think it is Google you can look that up on. I am looking back on a fantastic period of time with a great group of players.
I don't think I've been beaten today, only in a penalty shootout.
I had a wonderful time and yes it is incredibly painful to see how we have been eliminated. Particularly as because I did everything to prevent this from happening."
Everything he says is “I” rather than “we”.
Someone should tell him that there is no I in team
His football was an absolute borefest, and his signings were abysmal, probably the worst of the Woodward era.
Gave us a laugh or two off the pitch, though - and gave us Marcus Rashford.
