I remember seeing a tweet from Gary calling Bayern's football " tippy tappy crap" when Real Madrid cut them apart. Now if united win the title under Van Gaal (a non British manager) playing 4-3-3 possession based football with minimal crosses, he might (stress the word might) accept united can be successful with out playing 4-4-2 with loads of crosses. I can't see him admitting it, it'd benefit him and united to see another way of playing football prove successful.

Manchester United have seen their move for Real Madrid's Angel Di Maria hijacked by PSG
Yeah thats pretty sad state of affairs alright..
Seems the club have been on one of the areas roller-coasters & someones pulled the plug leaving them stranded!
I can't find this SkyItalia story claiming PSG has Hijacked our move for di Maria
Might be involved in some way in the Evra transfer. Or i am giving him too much credit.
Doubt he'll admit that. He never criticised Moyes despite his countless mistakes so it'll be interesting to see when Van Gaal makes a mistake whether he'll ignore it.
The article from afew days ago was that PSG have made a bid but United are very interested, the hijacking part of it I feel is a twitter invention.
Dough he'll ignore Van Gaal's shortcomings. This is a united manager with a massive reputation; one that's arguably bigger than Ferguson's European reputation.
Interesting, does this guy have a connection to United? I ask because there were rumblings on twitter that we were holding talks for him today with the Evra deal being vital. However I wouldnt be surprised if he does have links to us, that its simply to check over the details for Evra and sign the papers, which could essentially be done in Manchester, if he is a lawyer for us it would be to make a contract offer to Juve.
Yes but agents play a huge part in where a player goes these days don't they? And its not like we have good relations with Mendes without paying him handsome sums too.
Haha, Metro have taken the word 'Marca' out of their Di Maria report and replaced it with 'Spanish reports'. Still nonsense, less checkable.
Can we put Metro on the black list? 
Cheers, PSG!
He is someone in the banned list in post 1. Last year he did all this kinda attention seeking stuff over Ronaldo.
As for rebuilding:
CM
Winger
CB
LB (backup)
+ Shaw/Herrera. Don't think we need any more than that.

I don't think you can blame them. Players need to be wanting to go there. They did try for Sanchez who though not as good Suarez would have certainly been a quality signing.
Didn't realise he was on the banned list, my apologies.
You mean Woody hasn't called you to personally explain?
Wasn't it pretty obvious that the quote from Gary was fake? Who in the right frame would suggest that we need 7,8 or 9 players?
Also people like AlexShawESPN is shameful without researching a bit if someone would be that crazy to suggest 9 players.
No need for apologies mate, you do a sterling job.
But the quote wasn't saying that. It was only said that without 7-9 new players you can't talk about a revolution.
It's pretty amazing that people can't get the point. If he'd said "You can't call yourself a murderer without killing someone" he's not suggesting that you should go out and kill someone.
I can do without Alan Hansen, he is a bloody misery. After the Germany/Brazil game he went on and on about the defending. That is all he can talk about.
After winning the league we only needed a bit of tinkering. Moyes managed to destroy the confidence of a number of players and alienated the rest. The job is more complicated now.
Agreed with all except the LB. If you're targetting a reserve full back I'd say that a RB is much more important for youse.
There's alot of average players at the club & many have moved on, or retired too:
Vida - gone to Inter
Rio - gone, & to QPR most likely
Evra - could be off to Juve
Giggsy - retired
Young - useless & needs to leave the club
Nani - useless & needs to leave the club
Cleverely - not good enough & should be sold
Fellaini - long-ball target man & not United quality
Hernandez - not good enough
Smalling - not United quality
Anderson - such a waste of talent & needs to be sold
Thats alot of players that are either: gone, going or so shite that they should be gone..

Could arguably add Smalling and Kagawa to that list.
Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins upset Liverpool are talking to Wilfried Bony 'behind my club's back.' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2688688/Huw-Jenkins-slams-Liverpool-making-Wilfried-Bony-without-permission.html… #swans #lfc
You missed the most obvious being Anderson!
A little harsh on Smalling that, hes a better CB than Jones
I would say definitely added to the list. We have soooo much deadwood, it will take years to get rid of them.
