Manucho the boss

Doesn't give a f*ck whose toes he steps on, respected by all in the game so can get away with anything. Hopefully some of our fans won't start turning on him this season, he's just being honest.
I think it will be fine, assuming he doesn't do a Neville and say we should be sticking to a 4-4-2 only. But that's what I mean though, Neville's usual defence of 4-4-2 was constantly just stretching teams and pace, we did that but were shit under Moyes. If we struggle next season in this 3-5-2/5-3-2 then I hope they can provide constructive criticism. Say why it's not working, not just 'I don't like it, it's not the United way'. Whatever the case, he'll be miles better than the crap they have on the channel now.I'm itching to see the reaction on here, the first time he has a pop at United.......
Well Keane is a knob to a lot of them so, it's quite possibleDoesn't give a f*ck whose toes he steps on, respected by all in the game so can get away with anything. Hopefully some of our fans won't start turning on him this season, he's just being honest.
As I said, you can mark it down that himself and Neville will be shooting LVG down, any time they get a chance, while bigging Giggs upI think it will be fine, assuming he doesn't do a Neville and say we should be sticking to a 4-4-2 only.

I do also wonder though, does this completely rule him out of having a role at the club in a coaching capacity?
If we had Ronaldo and Bale would you not agree 4-4-2 last season would have gone 10x better? If we had kept Moyes I'm 99% certain we would have been in for some top class wingers and I reckon this is what Nev was going on about. Whilst Nev's been at United, we've almost always been a 4-4-2 team because we've always had some of the best wingers in the game, unfortunately that stopped and Fergie started buying players like Shinji to move to a new set-up. Gary obviously didn't get the memo, lol.I think it will be fine, assuming he doesn't do a Neville and say we should be sticking to a 4-4-2 only.

He is definitely more Keane than Neville. They have different personalities but, Keane and Scholes seem to have a similar view of the game.My worry with Scholes is he'll become like a Keane more than a Neville. Neville knows about his tactics but apparently Scholes isn't all that keen, so I worry Scholes will be like Keane and be good at dishing criticism out and say it how he sees it, but won't provide much tactical view points or constructive criticism. Let's hope I'm completely wrong.
I still want BT Sport to wipe Sky Sports out, in terms of top football at least so every little helps
It's strange why people think Giggsy/Scholesy and LvG are on the opposite sides?!As I said, you can mark it down that himself and Neville will be shooting LVG down, any time they get a chance, while bigging Giggs up
From what I’ve seen in pre-season he looks a bit mad. He’s a bit like a mad genius, he looks a bit crazy.
Insightful PaulScholes on Louis van Gaal:
Wow you really skewered Scholes there....Insightful Paul
My mum looks mad when she's got a wooden spoon in her hand
He seems to see him as a number 10 for some reason I thinkScholes doesn't think Herrera will cut it as a central midfielder for us, he's being awfully negative about us.
From watching him play. His most impressive performances in pre season came when he was pushed further forward.He seems to see him as a number 10 for some reason I think
Not saying he won't be good there but he seems to be happy to get stuck in more than your average number 10. He'll be good as a CM I thinkFrom watching him play. His most impressive performances in pre season came when he was pushed further forward.
He doesn't work for United because he tells it how he sees it . . I would take more out of what he says then a lot of the former united players on the United payrole . .Scholes doesn't think Herrera will cut it as a central midfielder for us, he's being awfully negative about us.
I think he is just pissed off we didn't get Fabregas or Kroos. I have doubt's the more he sees of Herrera he will change that opinion.Scholes doesn't think Herrera will cut it as a central midfielder for us, he's being awfully negative about us.
LVG also likened Herrera to a No. 10.He seems to see him as a number 10 for some reason I think
Certainly acting like a bitter twat without Keanes humourPiss poor from Scholes imo. If Keane made the same comments there would have been mass hysteria on here.
He might be.He should be working on coaching skills if he is to be involved when Giggsy takes over
