This was Van Gaal's second show of faith in the Spaniard, following on from when he opted for Valdes instead of Pepe Reina when in charge of Barcelona in 2002. Both men coveted the starting spot at the Camp Nou and Valdes won the race, making his rival depart for Villarreal.

After making nine first-team appearances, Van Gaal later dropped his new No. 1 back into the reserves after opting for Roberto Bonano and Robert Enke for a match against Villarreal, and a second division clash at Reus beckoned. However, Valdes missed the Friday training session ahead of the Reus match the next day and explained to Van Gaal that he needed the weekend off to think about his future.

"He has not turned up for training and I see that as a refusal to work," theDutch coach explained at the time. "The club now has to solve the problem."

HLN reckon the claims of Man United wanting Benteke came from Aston Villa sources, and they ponder if it's a tactic to pressure Liverpool.

Martinez has came out and said we won't sell and i doubt we will. We have no reason to sell him as he's our best CM, we don't need to sell a key player each season like we used to either to balance the books. He'll stay and this will tide over.

Feels a bit cheap and Juve financially don't need to sell, so I assume there is a reason i.e. Juve want to replace him or Vidal wants a move, obviously.
 
I always wondered why no bigger club were ever in for Moutinho. I was always impressed with his passing ability. A club like Liverpool could do with a guy like that.
