    Van Gaal

    Following last nights match against Cambridge he is quoted as saying every thing was against them.

    Of course it was - heart breaking isn't it?

    Formula for getting a result against the 'top 4'

    1. They will always have been really poor
    2. They had at least one player out and if it wasn't for that would have won easily
    3. The conditions were terrible
    4. The Ref forgot to award them their usual quota of decisions
    5. You were lucky, hardly in the game in fact.

    I liked his comment, about how, just as against Yeovil and QPR, he had to shout at the team, during the half time break, to get an improvement from the team.

    Perhaps if he used a system the players were comfortable with, he might not have to keep raising his voice.

    Always used to like LVG but this season I've lost respect for him. His chosen purchases (his fault) and injuries (granted, not his fault) have left him with a slightly unbalanced lineup that still hasn't settled. Credit where it's due to Cambridge who, like we did in the league a fortnight ago, exploited that fact and got a deserved result out of it.

    With more signings and a fully fit team next season I would expect Manure will be challenging right at the top next season. Let's enjoy their failings while we can!

    They picked the wrong Dutchman.

    Indeed they did. Thank God for that.

    LVG reminds me of a Dutch cap.

    ... and then failed to give him the special watch.
