Watch Man utd this season.

Watch Man utd this season.

Or last season.......

[Creampuff 22,628]

I'm not sure LvG was interested in the Rangers job...

[graeme_4 35,390]

I think the right choice of new manager would.

Needs to be an interview process with set criteria:

Track record

Footballing style

Unaffiliated with the club currently (believe we need to rebuild the football side from scratch)

[The Godfather 72,863]

I doubt any manager could make us worse than what ALly has done to us.

[ianb1547 3,767]

The assumption that a new manager makes a difference (in a good way) is flawed.

[Copland bear 7,966]

Agree about Man Utd, van Gaal has had beds installed in the training ground for naps between (Nando's) i mean training sessions, And he has also put hd cameras in so he can record training sessions.

Might be a tall order with Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal and even Liverpool, but he is laying the foundations, give him a couple of seasons and Man Utd will take some stopping.

Watch Man utd this season.

Or see Terry Butcher....

new manager? That implies we have one in the first place.

[Rickshaw77 287]

Difference between Man utd and Rangers is the Mancs have high quality players who were playing badly. Rangers have a bunch of mid-table SPL Bosmans who would not even been near Rangers 2nd string team a few years back.

Doubt even the best manager in the world is going to make Ricky Foster a better player.

It's all about Ambition to be Honoust.

You can be as good as you want to be.

You just need to believe in how good and how ambitious you want your Team to be.

Van Gall is on a different plain.

Mid table bosmans, many of who were some of the better players outside of Celtic and rangers, were last season playing agaisnts part timer whonplay football as a hobby, you could actually make a comparison .

The prima donnas will chase him same as moyes, ferguson was the only one bigger than any of the prima donnas and they knew it.

Better managers wouldn't even have given shite like that the time of day and would have pushed on with youth development when we were in the 3rd division

[Muirheadbear 1,483]

All good points but alas you could only expect such decisions to sack him from a board who are in it for the long run.

So it's all hypothetical I'm afraid. He will make an excellent buffer for certain investors. A fall guy if you will.

[smell the glove 55]

is Van Gaal interested in the job?

Would he have the quality of van persie, rooney, mata etc at his disposal here plus millions to spend on world class players.

Away an fcuk off ya thick tit

Pish. We had brilliant players in comparison with the league we were in. Players have got worse not better under McCoist, they have their share of the blame but its mostly down to bad management and bad tactics.

[Wearethepeople72 1,847]

Man United had a new manager last season aswell and look what happened.

A new manager doesn't always mean a team will change for the better.

Good coaches can only take shite players so far...and youth development takes both time and money, something people tend to forget and something we've been in short supply of lately.

The point Goat is making that you appear to have missed is Davie Moyes had those players too.

I'm aware of this but we should have taken the chance to make a decent start at it when we were in the 3rd division. Instead we went down the route of signing fairly average players on bigger wages than they're worth

[gogzy 31,195]

They had a new manager last year GOAT. How did that work out for them?

[saintbob1969 1,516]

Motivation and competitive challenge are key in any league. Easy enough for Van Gaal to come into a mini US competition, lets see what he does if Man U drop points against the lesser sides in the middle of the UK winter.

Lets take this silly idea to the height of silliness shall we, go back two years, sack McCoist and hire... oh, lets say, McInnes, or Mourinho, or how about some unknown from Norway, now how does this imaginary manager get a team of pros to win one league after the other in godforsaken outposts of all weather lower league misery with constant attacks and expectations and financial insecurity?

[King Jela 20,687]

So how do we go about getting Van Gaal ?
