Carrick injured....now buy a fecking CM.
Louis Van Gaal - First press conference 17/07/14 14:45 BST
- Thread starter Sassy Colin
- Start date
Did the press secretary just call him Van?
That was some deep shit. Gotta love the man! 
"Thank you Van? "
Why did nobody follow up about Carrick's injury?
Wait Carrick is injured.
To the Vidal thread
To the Vidal thread
Carrick's injured!?? The way he described it suggests it's not a trivial injury
Feck, that Carrick injury must be serious for him to mention it.
If the Carrick injury is long term then I expect movement in the transfer window immediately.
Why is Sullivan orange?
thank you van
Wow what a way to end it.
Not much of a conference really.Then again they rarely are.
The answer made it worth it I thought.
moon-boot?
Carrick injured? Van goal seemed like he was a huge fan of him though. Feel like if we did get Vidal we'd have a midfield trio of Carrick behind Herrera and Vidal, and then mata on the wing.
Carrick must be fecked.
"Thank you, Van"
So Carrick injured yet again, definitely need to sign a midfielder before pre season tour.
He's always had emphasis on youth. This isn't some sort of dig at Rooney, calm down.
No one had the stones to mention Vidal.
Lovely.
They asked one question re transfers and it was a muppet killing answer.
presence made...now to stamp his authority.
Biggest club in the world. Wants first, not fourth. Go Louis!
He will deffo reinforce midfield now Carrick is injured- to the Vidal thread.
No Vidal so
"Carrick injured....Big blow....I'm off to Turin....Bye"
It's on!!
It's on!!
That was such an authoritative press conference. It's been a long time since we've had one of those. Proper United gumption.
I doubt the Carrick injury is serious. He would have said so if it was. He'll probably miss the tour. If he's going to miss the start of the season though, he needs to enter the market soon.
Looks like we may not do some business for a week or 2. Wants to get to know these players first.
How is it possible to be a professional journalist and be so, so bad at asking good questions? They're so obsessed with trying to wheedle out a nice headliney soundbite they actually make it difficult for the manager to day anything interesting.
The basics of journalism are dying. The sorts of things 12-year-olds are taught aren't practiced by experienced pros. It's embarrassing, to be honest.

feck that's not good.
Wierd the way he side stepped Rooney and went straight to Carrick.
"Thank you Van? "
Carrick out "for a long time"
Carrick was nursing an Achilles injury last season wasn't he? Maybe related to that now.
Jesus that was brilliant. He's the fecking man. I feel like I'm sat on the naughty step.
I doubt he'd have mentioned it if it wasn't serious.
yep, he is obviously already got one personnel terms with her
