Hypothetical Manager Shortlist No.1

[Gladystweet]

Don't understand anyone that would turn their nose up at van Gaal. A proven winner.

I'm not doubting he's won stuff. But just look at the names of those teams....


Plus he's 103 years old.

I'd take LVG. But is he realistic? Previously he has indicated that he has absolutely zero interest in us and wouldn't consider us. Has that changed?

Only on GOT...

Lots of big jobs that might look to LVG in the short term. Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs (if Pochettino goes to Madrid), Juventus (if Allegri has had enough), Napoli (if Sarri goes to Chelsea). There’ll be a huge managerial carousel this summer.

All this recent talk of Allardyce staying on and Van Gaal entering the picture is making me physically unwell.

 

[Carlito]

Van Gaal would be capable of getting the club to the point where a younger manager could come in and introduce a more progressive style, hopefully to kick on from Europa to Champions League contenders.

Comparing him to a no mark like Allardyce is ridiculous.

Dare I mention the name? I have to admit I've come round to the idea and I've shot people down for the mere mention of the name in the past. But.....Rafael Benitez anyone?

BOOOOOOOO FSW

Would deffo take LVG. A proven winner

Exactly. LVG is structured football. It’s an opinion if you like it or not but his way is effective and can be attacking when done properly. Allardyce has no methodology whatsoever apart from every man behind the ball and open up slightly against the bottom 13 at home.

Dutch...tick. Boring football...tick. Fat head ? Oh wait...Davek will not like thatlollollol

Would Everton fans seriously be okay with van Gaal?

I mean the guy is a brilliant character and a great tactician but his style of football had some fans at Old Trafford
literally falling asleep.

Whats changed? they have exactly the same style with Mourinho hence why they are all moaning now.

Hopefully China.

Also stated he wanted a club that he could beat man Utd with.....

If it is any consolation only one of the above eventualities can happen!

Didn't realise until this week that Laurent Blanc hadn't got another managerial job since leaving PSG in 2016.
