Van Gaal isn't a bad manager. (self.reddevils)

thegooseandthegander が 投稿

If you look at his past experience and success, it's inconceivable that he is the sole problem behind United's bad form. He joined United after he took a very average dutch side and lead them to 3rd place in the world cup. He's not an idiot.

Replacing Van Gaal right now would do nothing. A large proportion of first team squad is injured, and the players themselves are low on confidence or just don't care anymore. Let me put it this way: Picasso would be hard-pressed to create good art if he was asked to work with shit.

It's not so black and white. Being a good or bad manager doesn't mean you'll always succeed or always fail. Circumstances have a lot to do with things. Sometimes certain jobs will illuminate your failings and some will highlight your strengths. The fact that he's had success before doesn't mean he'll automatically succeed here and if he's a failure here it doesn't mean that everything he did was wrong but it could mean that certain things didn't work out...

He picked his paint out before he drew this situation. The artist bears some responsibility here.

His subs on Thursday when we needed 3 goals is bad management, there is no defending Van Gaal

Who do you sub on?

Memphis maybe? Yes, sometimes he plays shit and sometimes he plays phenomenal, but we needed to score 3 goals for crying out loud, so we should have taken that risk.

But no, instead we sub 2 full-backs and a holding midfielder.

He was awful in his first Holland stint, awful in his second Barca stint and awful in his second season at Bayern

LVG has been terrible plenty times before and he's doing terrible here.

'Good' managers can be shit in certain appointments and good managers can one day turn into bad managers when time catches up to them

He's been bad for us, that much is true regardless of his good record elsewhere. The two squad issues you mention are his doing, the injuries less so, but it's the job of the manager to instill confidence. Look at the teams Ferguson spurred on to win things when they were just better than average - that's confidence and good tactics - excellent management from the master. It can be argued that Louis Van Gaal has taken the team backwards with his squad reshaping.

There's no doubt that the Louis Van Gaal/Manchester United project has failed and it's about time he was shown the door. He definitely needs to be relieved of his duty in the summer. We need somebody who has either the experience of winning the PL, or somebody who has the ability to win the PL and someone we can look at to build a team. Jose Mourinho would be good for his ability to win things, but is a short term option and I'd be worried about his record on using youth players - but I do think Giggs could perform some sort of dual role championing our youth team and bridging the two. Pochettino is someone I've liked since his Southampton days, and he's done wonderful things with Spurs and he's matured into a great manager playing defensively solid but exciting football, with young British talent! Diego Simeone is someone I'd be looking at too.

I've drunkenly rambled on, but yeah he might have a great record and might not be a bad manager per se, but he's certainly been dog shit for us!

Man...I'd sure like to see the games you've been watching...I must have been watching another MANU team playing. Thanks I'll keep a watch out for this impostor team.

"and the players themselves are low on confidence or just don't care anymore."

Looking beyond every other issue, including the large amount of these posts that put forward no factual basis for anything, how is this not an indictment of his management?

You're right on time with this "holier than thou lvg is not at fault" thread.

There's always 'The New Manager Effect'.

Look, we all know that LVG isn't an inherently bad manager (his resume speaks for itself), but it's not working out. A good manager plus a great club doesn't always equal success. It isn't math.
