Liverpool’s Brendan Rodgers warns Louis van Gaal over first season

 

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/aug/05/liverpool-brendan-rodgers-louis-van-gaal

Mind Games ... Seriously ?

 

Rodgers before Liverpool Watford, Reading, Swansea City ...

 

Van Gaal before United Ajax, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Netherlands ...

Rodgers did warn you

 

Still two positives we can take from this ... one is last season we won d first game against swansea ... second there is no "the chosen one" banner ...

 

and still 37 games ahead dude ... :wave:

 

van gaal already told fans it will be difficult first three months during the start of the season ... so no world ending measures are reqd. ... :smokey:

Man U will not be in top 4 this time.

I'm not a fan of theirs but that's just too early especially since it's the first ever bpl game you've seen.

People have seen hundreds and can't get it right.

Man United really needs Vidal :P

 

Are there any solid CMs in the squad that didn't play today?

 

They need to get the Blind signing done if they're intent on playing 3 CBs and two attacking wing backs. Young is just going to leak goals. I think they're better off playing an unfit Shaw.

Carrick perhaps.

I have seen a few of their CL games. This team just lacked the confidence.

You can't just expect De Jong to automatically do for Utd what he did for Netherlands just because LVG is the coach. Don't forget the Dutch team had solid CBs and wing backs, which Utd doesn't.

 

You should have watched De Jong at Milan last season. Played the same position - just ahead of defence - but was completely ineffective and Milan finished outside the Europa League places. Plus, he's old now and you can't count on him for a full season. Utd needs a more permanant solution. WTF he's just 29!?

not just because van gaal is the coach but this united defence can be more assured with de jong in front of them than darren fletcher or carrick

its an inexperienced defence ... and a new formation ... they need someone who can protect the CBs like Vidal ... but not sure its happening ...

 

Blind can play that role too ... Jones and Smalling cant play together ... pathetic ... :rant:
