Doom-monger obsessed with Herrera & the M.E.N.
Not as erratic as Memphis Depay's.I'm not sure Herrera is the player you want when you need to keep the ball, his passing can be erratic at the best of times.

Wanting what's best for United makes me a shit fan yet wanting the failure to continue dragging us further down the path Moyes set us on makes you fan of the year?
He should have brought them both on at the same time as you say. LvG seems to be slow picking up signs of players getting tired, or his staff are. Both Fellaini and Mata were flagging at that time.Herrera is better then Schneiderlin with the ball... by a clear, clear, distance. Schneiderlin has been terrible with the ball of late, so not sure how bringing him on - for Fellaini was doing an excellent defensive shift no less - was "doing something".
There was literally nothing stopping from putting them both on the pitch at any rate. Especially as Mata was visibly knackered.
We just drew 1-1 vs Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after what was largely a good performance. If you think our game plan under Mourinho would be any different to LVG's today (get the first goal, park the bus) then you're much mistaken.
Maybe football's not for you.
Shit fan.

So we're not allowed to criticize the manager after his inept subs cost us 2pts?We just drew 1-1 vs Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after what was largely a good performance.

Jose would never, ever have brought Memphis on. Ridiculous move. Bring Memphis on to waste time right at the end of the game. He got the Memphis/Herrera subs completely wrong. Morgan did not do himself any favours either.you are fecking nuts. you kill the game with herrera not depay. that's parking the bus not giving away a late goal. depay , memphis depay!
so you're a "shit fan" if you dare to criticize united, LVG, and any of the players for anythingWe just drew 1-1 vs Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after what was largely a good performance.

Like I said before, some people think that wanting the best for the club is wrong.so you're a "shit fan" if you dare to criticize united, LVG, and any of the players for anything
Barcelona and Bayern have both been blessed with possibly their best squads in their history.
Arsenal simply don't win, haven't done for years and years.
Which successful manager in the world can be expected to stay more than 3-4 years anyway?
FixedHe seems to always want to have the last word when it comes to the media. He should be more focused on his/his team's performance. Had he been doing what he's paid and spent to do the media wont be on his back. Which definitely not having United in 5th place with little chance of playing CL next season. Needless to say our poor CL campaign which got us kicked out of the easiest group possible.
Stop worrying about what the media says and RESIGN Mr Van Gaal.
It is all about him. Has been from the start.He seems to always want to have the last word when it comes to the media. He should be more focused on his/his team's performance.

Stop worrying about what the media says and do your job Mr Van Gaal.
and this shit with putting on depay for any reason other than the need to chase a goal is inexcusable. morgan was shit , but depay should have never pulled the shirt on.
What did Sir Alex leave behind? That was already ripped apart by Moyes when he fired everyone and brought in Round & co.Whether van gaal is fired on not; i'm sure he has built a team that although not title winners but a team much less reliant on a manager. Look at it today; if the players had used their common sense they would have had turned to possesion football in the last ten minutes.
You dont need a manager to tell you to do that by any means. What we have now though is a manager who put this squad through countless formations, types of football & play. Ultimately the reason he doesn't even get off his arse is because the team should understand how to dictate trouble & freedom.
Barceloma & bayern play as a unit. They play like a unit because they only buy players that they clearly need. Everybody else is homegrown & taught to play in the same way as everybody else.
We hire mourinho ( only assumimg he does not change); he will rip up everything; not just what LVG left behind but what SAF left behind & spend millions on players he does not need- who do not understand the club, the tactics & at max will have one or 2 good seasons before moving to china or holland.
We will only be good as mourinho is & that is dangerous.
You can have almost any half decent professional manager managing bayern & barcelona.. They will be successful because the majority of the squad is not theirs & there influence is seen in KEY positions.
I'm sure Mourinho will come because of our so called lack of improvement even though this team of youngsters are being compared to title winners filled with average and elderly players. I just really hope he changes his ways.
Actually I miscounted... it's more like 15 posts within the past hour but nonetheless.
Shit fan.

Also, Mourinho's first stint at Chelsea saw him leave behind a side that largely remained competitive in the league many years after his departure.
Lingard was tiring, Memphis best play for PSV came with counter attacking.
A quick check of the Chelsea squad when he joined and left the first time will be pretty clear it wasn't Ranieri.Alot of that can be down to ranieri too?
Alot of that can be down to ranieri too?
and...........
herrera and morgan should have been the subs. morgan was shit , depay was the wrong choice. if united were chasing a goal then not a worry.
I literally cannot remember the last time he made a sub to change the game positively for us.

But you know nothing will happen to him.Who cares if we qualify for the Europa, we just need to see the back of him to turn a new page, much like the sacking of Moyes relieved the doom and gloom surrounding the club 2 years ago.
I disagree, the squad SAF left were not good enough going forward. Who exactly did LVG let go that was such a loss? You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. He is rebuilding, I am seeing progress when we are healthy. I am seeing Manchester United starting to press off the ball. I see Manchester now starting effective attacks from the back, defenders are giving intelligent passing. I was frustrated with the lack of definition, but things are beginning to look clear to me. We are about a player or two away from being world beaters.Go follow the U21s in that case.
If the players are good enough, they're old enough. The fact LVG dismantled our squad so much we have to rely on youth so often is not a positive, it's just negligence.
You can't blame him for getting pissed off with a question like that.
He is not. The speculations and the story is so disrespectful. If we are doing this, then we are losing our way and I don't want to believe SAF is ok with this.
How exactly are we on the up? We have fewer points now than at the same stage of the Moyes season, we were 4th last season, and despite the chaos at Chelsea, find ourselves 5th!!I disagree, the squad SAF were not good enough going forward.

You call it relying on youth, I call it imbuing experience. We need to give him time and stop all these nonsense. If we sack him, Mourihno too will think he has less time and will go out splashing again and the foundation being built will come down. It is sad that you are not seeing the transformation happening in front of you. I understand your anger, but we are not going away. We are on the up.
But seeing what has happened to LVG, he will not have the patience to wait. He can have a 20 year plan, if he gets results like LVG, the fans will call for his head! I have come to respect LVG so much lately, most people would have crumbled under the pressure and the machinations behind his back. He still believes, the players are beginning to believe, the players are norming to forming now. When they start to perform, watch out.That's a good point. However, would you risk sacrificing a champions league spot for the sake of the three youth players? It's a hard dilemma because we aren't exactly guaranteed to win anything with a new manager either, but are guaranteed that Mourinho will shit on our youth. At least that's what we expect.
I suppose it would depend on Mourinho's ambitions; going off his recent interview it sounds as though he wants to settle down in England. Maybe he'd be more concerned with youth if that were the case?
That's how EVERY club operates, and LVG was certainly aware of our interest when Moyes was still in the club's employment.He is not. The speculations and the story is so disrespectful. If we are doing this, then we are losing our way and I don't want to believe SAF is ok with this.
There have been plenty of examples everywhere that managers come in and perform from the first game. It's not some kind of unrealistic expectation for United to be secure in the top 4 whilst some rebuilding takes places at the same time.But seeing what has happened to LVG, he will not have the patience to wait. He can have a 20 year plan, if he gets results like LVG, the fans will call for his head!

Didn't the stories originate abroad, if yes our reporters are only repeating them. They didn't make them up. The BBC are usually very particular what they say, so the sources were likely reputable. If it is the club leaking the stories then that is a different matter and LvG does not have the support he thinks he does.He is not. The speculations and the story is so disrespectful. If we are doing this, then we are losing our way and I don't want to believe SAF is ok with this.
fergie doesn't own United though does he. as much as we, the fans, love him and he's earned everything that comes his way, his time at the club in terms of "running it" are over to a large extent.He is not. The speculations and the story is so disrespectful. If we are doing this, then we are losing our way and I don't want to believe SAF is ok with this.
Hopefully that's true.Didn't the stories originate abroad, if yes our reporters are only repeating them. They didn't make them up.
