This. I'm sure Beckham had good mates in the dressing room when Fergie kicked him out of the club.Just like Fergie used to.
Did you moan as much back then ?

Which is why LvG has repeatedly fallen out with every single big club he's managed. This was a foreshadow for the inevitable repeating of history.
Exactly. Unnecessary and completely avoidableYou don't criticise a player in public. That's low from LvG in a presser. He could have just said he's left him behind for other reasons like personal training regime.
Yes.
While obviously LVG is entertaining, and very certain of himself, I am quite sure he is not right about everything. Valdes' attitude certainly hasn't come across as bad at all.
Ffs, Evra, Rojo, him, do we only attract players who like to strike?!
Hargreaves as well, no?Ffs, Evra, Rojo, him, do we only attract players who like to strike?!

The french heritage.
Shouldn't we wait to hear Valdes' side of the story before making judgements?
So he'll go on strike to force through a transfer for £37m when he has a release clause at £35m?
Its meant to be in euros. They are quoting marca and they changed it to pounds completely forgetting to actually convert the numbers as well. Lazy journalism.Surely he wouldn't need to go on strike if we were prepared to pay that sort of money.
You have to admit though that LVG had a right to take it personally because it was their personal relationship that made LVG reach out and help Valdes out in the first place. At the end of the day it all comes down to the fact that United helped him at Van Gaal's resquest so he'd be pissed and rightly so.There are arseloads of things that LvG hasn't been brutally honest about. He chose to make this issue personal. The rest of the squad will have seen that and Valdes' friends in particular won't be happy.
Or maybe they should take it personally too and allow the whole dressing room to become a clusterfeck.You have to admit though that LVG had a right to take it personally because it was their personal relationship that made LVG reach out and help Valdes out in the first place.

As for his friends they simply need to suck it up and do their jobs, jobs they are being paid millions to do.

How do you know that hasn't happened already?Or maybe they should take it personally too and allow the whole dressing room to become a clusterfeck.
The buck should have stopped at LvG and he should have kept it in-house. Maybe a dressing down in front of the team would have served a purpose, but not in front of the media.
I don't. That's not the point.How do you know that hasn't happened already?

Maybe he did dress him down, it didn't serve this purpose, so LvG took it further.I don't. That's not the point.
One scenario serves a purpose, the other doesn't. What we know is that LvG definitely did the latter and imo he was unprofessional to do so.
..and he is still best mates with them while his many of his mates stayed with club long after him and won things.
Club football is a tough world and managers have to make lot of tough choices. Van Gaal mentioned his disappointment in Valdes. I don't think he did it with pleasure, openly talking about Valdes.
He's being kicked out of the club, so I'd say LvG has made his point.Maybe he did dress him down, it didn't serve this purpose, so LvG took it further.
Anyway, I'd argue that it's far more unprofessional to take a contract then refuse to do what's required of you by the manager.
This rumour is like a turd that just won't flush.
He was the same talking about RvP. That he is sad he had to let him go. LvG has to put the team first. If players cannot deal with being sold then that is tough...and he is still best mates with them while his many of his mates stayed with club long after him and won things.
