Van Gaal repeated after new criticism: “At least three years need” – Voetbal International

Although Manchester United was eliminated Wednesday in the tournament for the League Cup, remains manager Louis van Gaal claiming that The Red Devils make progress under his leadership. “We are much better now than last season.”

“Last year we had thirteen points after ten league games, now we already have twenty ‘ Van Gaal charged for the drummed journaille in its outlook for the away match with Crystal Palace. “That means that we are making progress, but it is an ongoing process. We were in the last sixteen in the League Cup and sit in the group stage of the Champions League. Last season we did not have it. “

However, the style of play is that Van Gaal has implemented the team can not count on everyone’s approval. Expressed as club legend and TV analyst Paul Scholes this week strongly criticized in the English media, because he feels that this United creativity and courage is lacking, to add that this is not a selection in which he liked to play. “I translate always Dutch proverbs into English, but you have here made a nice expression for: Sticks and stones May break my bones, but scolding does not hurt,” refuted Van Gaal such criticism with a wink .

Club Legend Paul Scholes voiced fierce criticism of Manchester United’s Louis van Gaal, but the manager itself could not agree with the claims of the Englishman.

“Why would he say such a thing? In the interest of the club or in the interests of themselves? I also disagree with his opinion, because I am always willing to take risks. Mr. Scholes thinks I should leave, he would have to start the conversation with me, or even to talk to his friend Ryan Giggs (assistant to Van Gaal, ed.). But he is not the man responsible. There go the club owners about. “

The same club owners asked last summer transfer budget of a small 130 million euros to finalize the arrival of include Anthony Martial, Morgan Schneiderlin and Memphis Depay. This after the preceding transfer summer where the club millions dissipated on players like Ángel Di María and Falcao, who after one season already walked out the door.

“If we continue to lose, I will be there eventually get the bill for, I know that,” Van Gaal suggested realistic fixed prior to the encounter with Palace, the current number seven of the Premier League . “But we take steps forward,” thought the manager who looks at a gap of two points on leader and city rivals Manchester City. “I’m here not ready within a year, I definitely need three years.
