that's what we're calling him from now on.

I bumped the pro LVG thread he was mostly active in recently to see if he was still around or he would come out as a mod on the wum but he didn't surface!

Is there any way we can somehow send ed an email or twitter gif of the stats above, fecking shocking decline from the Fegrie era, even Moyes provided more entertainment in his short tenure.
Just watched big Pete laying into our shite football on sky, said we've bored him to death

LVG given another excuse for job insecurity; Pete's getting him fired.
I believe his email address is somewhere in this thread.
I cant wait either. Even more than Moyes.
The worst thing is I was genuinely convinced that he would be fired in December, and then we didnt pull the trigger.
But knowing he will be gone after the final means I can just ignore most of what he says. Thats why I generally avoid his press conferences too.
The people that are sure he will be fired, when do you foresee it happening?
Next Sunday or Monday after the FA cup.
He won't be fired. He will decide to 'retire early' or 'leave through mutual consent', it will be a warm send off and Woodward will offer a gracious statement thanking him for his efforts.
Mourinho's joining will be announced 24 hours later.
I really wish I could believe this.
What Zlatan said sums it all up with VG, not only is VG not the nicest of people, he just seems to enjoy burning the next bridge
knowing my luck with tech, it would be blocked due to spam or something....theere must be a way we can get the power brokers to see this awful fec king stat
Final proof?! If Steven Avery had 1/100th of the proof we have over the past 3 years he'd be walking free!
Scraped Past Sheffield Wednesday 1-0 in Jan
West Ham took us to a replay
Last minute winner against Everton
Penalties & countless world-class saves along the way from De Gea...
I would say "he got to the FA cup final with us"... not the other way around. He's the passenger. Any one of us in this forum could have achieved what he's achieved this year, I'm adamant of that.
He isnt the only one:
Luca Toni
Lucio
Since van Gaal didn’t have a spot for Lucio in the first team, moving to Inter Milan and helping them win the 2010 Champions League against his former club Bayern Munich.
Giovanni
Rivaldo
Van Gaal responded by saying:
Rivaldo had this classic retort:
I am not surprised. The way he went on a power trip on Valdes was disgusting.
It's a strange feeling but the closer we get to getting finally rid of him, the less I want him to go. He's so shit he's given me Stockholm syndrome.

It didn't bounce a few weeks ago, I'd guess at least he or his secretary reads it. Closest you'll get bar somehow getting Sky Sports to carry it or something or making a sign for the match that TV cameras pick up.

not sure if this was posted before, just saw it and cant stop laughing
His arrogance is a bit too much, for someone whose best years have been in the 90's and has steadily been going downhill since.
Uli Hoenes had this to say about him:
And here is the man himself , announcing himself to the Catalan faithful just after he was made manager.
It must be a huge hit to his ego to have been the monumental failure that he has been at United. Make no mistake about, its not about United, its all about him. That is who he cares about the most.
I think when you have an ego that big you can always find external factors to shift the blame onto, rather than accepting your own failure.
It will be the players fault, ex-players fault, media fault, Redcafe's fault.
They certainly are.
They are creating few chances.
Scoring few goals.
Doing lots of back/side passes.
They sure are playing for him

Yeah whatever it was they are trying. More than what could be said for us under moyes (other than those 2 CL games) and mourinho (Chelsea this season)
That is the worst thing about him. It cant be the philosophy's fault, it must either be the players that are too slow or not good enough, or the injuries, or missed chances.
I think its also a hindrance to himself as a manager. The period between 2000 to 2004 was a disastrous one for him as manager , but he never tried to adapt or learn from it. I think for me, what made Sir Alex so special, is that in 2005, he reached a point where he realized that he had to evolve, or he would die out.
Van Gaal has gone on record saying that he believes that his philosophy is the right one, and he will never change it.
He seems to try to enforce his philosophy on his team, then after months of it not working, he'll stumble across something that works. When the danger has passed, he then seeks to revert to the same original philosophy that isnt working. That is exactly what he did this summer. Its baffling really.
Exactly. Couldn't put it better. We'd be insane to keep him.
I hope he is booed. Doesn't deserve anything better.
Just so long as there aren't any idiots chanting LOUIS VAN GAAL'S RED ARMY or god forbid a Moyes-style standing ovation for failure.
I don't think the players stopped trying under Moyes either, they're proffesionals. In both cases the players performed the managers instructions to the tee even when they knew they weren't working.
If Louis even tries to do a speech, it should be drowned out with whistles. I'm not one for booing or whatever, but top 4 is now 99.9999% impossible, yet there is no real talk of him getting the boot. Utmost discontent needs to be projected.

Peter Schmeichel talking about our football, for anyone who may have missed it.

We were quite clearly second best in most games against the likes of city and all. Moyes clearly lost the dressing room
Could go completely batshit, douse ones self in petrol and set myself alight whilst running to woodies corporate chums, might do the trick.
Isnt he on united's pay roll?
Oh I agree with that but I think LVG lost it ages ago as well, the players have just been doing what they need to do, they have pride and want CL football.
I don't agree with what you said about lack of trying though, they've never stopped doing that under either manager to a great extent. That's unfair on them.
When the chance of something not happening is less than .1111% of it happening, it should just be impossible.
The Great Dane is spot on!
I don't see the point of rehashing this. He's an arrogant asshole, we knew that and we wanted one after spending an year under beta lord Moyes who wanted us to aspire to be at Liverpool and City's level while losing 3-0 at home.
We can't celebrate his eccentricity when things are going well and turn around to criticize him the same when things go poor.
We didn't need an arrogant asshole after David Moyes,we needed an astute ,experienced coach. Unfortunately we got nothing of sort.
Not all of us where celebrating this negative traits of his. Infact we feared that it would bite us in the ass at some point like it always does wherever he goes. We thought that may be preceded by some success and maybe an improvemebt in our play . We didnt get that either.
Van Gaal has just been a monumental waste of two years in essence. He tries to lower expectations just as much as David Moyes did.
