Hi Musket

<" Interesting times for Man Utd next season..">

Sure looks like it. I am a keen supporter of Man U and have a Season Ticket and go to as many away games as I can so I hope to see a change in the way the team plays this year.

van Gaal does not suffer fools gladly and is reported to be a very stiff disciplinarian so I look forward to seeing him.

I was not happy in the way that United treated David Moyes. I believe he is a very good manager, I think he was over-awed in trying to manage this huge Club. He tried to stamp his own methods on United too soon and it rebounded against him.
Many excuses have been made for him but the fact was that he inherited a side that had won the Premier League by 13 clear points and only finished 7th is undisputable.

I believe in spite of that they should have given him another season.

Moyes is a good manager and although his time at Old Trafford was not a good one, he will have learned some valuable lessons from it. He will be back I am sure and will prove himself with another club.

Cheers
