The Daily Mail‘s Ian Ladyman writes that the favourite for the job will be announced as the next Man Utd manager after the club’s game with Hull City.
The 62-year-old will take over after Holland’s World Cup campaign.
It is not yet know what role interim boss Ryan Giggs and the so-called Class of 92 group who — Nicky Butt, Paul Scholes and Phil Neville — will take in the new regime.
Giggs’ time will come, but not yet…………the job could of swallowed him up. Van Gaal is one of the few managers in world football who can come to a huge club and have the balls to expect full control and kick everyone up the hole..just what Utd need right now.
Bayern? maybe. Barca? no he didn’t. He got sacked 6 months into his second spell in charge in January 2003 with Barcelona only 3 points above the relegation zone. That came after failing to get a very talented Holland team into the 2002 World cup. Thanks to McAteer of all people.

Bring back Moyes. Moyes in!
Get back into your box mate. Your probably one of those liverfools supporters lol
Giggs’ time will come, but not yet…………the job could of swallowed him up. Van Gaal is one of the few managers in world football who can come to a huge club and have the balls to expect full control and kick everyone up the hole..just what Utd need right now.
He laid the foundations for both successful Barcelona and bayern Munich teams,can he do the same for United
Bayern? maybe. Barca? no he didn’t. He got sacked 6 months into his second spell in charge in January 2003 with Barcelona only 3 points above the relegation zone. That came after failing to get a very talented Holland team into the 2002 World cup. Thanks to McAteer of all people.
Actually won 2 leagues and a copa in his first stint there before he was forced out by the media. A great choice for united!
Two notable achievements you missed, the development of the Ajax setup in the early ’90′s and AZ Alkmaar winning Everdivisie in 2009.
If this is correct then it seems United have a real problem with someone on the inside leaking information to the press, same as with Moyes sacking this is all over the papers before the club has even said anything…
It almost seems like United’s marketing team is doing their very best to make sure united stay relevant in the papers after such a woeful season. I’m a united supporter and I worry that the club is acting in such an unprofessional manner.
It’s probably that dummy Ferdinand telling his presumably dumb mates.
Oh wished up child
y do irish ppl call Alex ferguson sir? the title is not relevant here
The title is relevant to any one that has respect for people that have earned the right to be called sir ,be it sir Alex or yes sir thank you sir can I get you anything else sir , it’s all relative
the title is a knighthood bestowed upon a man of the realm of Great Britain by the monarchy of Great Britain for services rendered to Great Britain, so the title of sir is only relevant in Great Britain, ur idea of respect sounds like servitude to me m8 calling someone sir wen ur serving them sumtn is called manners and is the edict required for serving sum1 if u are so enclined to use class distinctions such as sir and madam
Personally I would’ve preferred kloop or Simeone, both young and upcoming managers with a proven track record but after moyes’ reign of terror anyone will be a step forward
Was always going to be tough for Moyes following after one of the greatest managers in football in Sir Alex but I think Van Gaal will bring big improvements and excellent experience and won’t take any crap from the players. A kick up the arse from him won’t do any harm.
Soap opera
If does get the job first thing he should do is get rid of Ferguson from any where near the club. Conte is the perfect guy for the job they should be going after him
Van gall will be an excellent mentor for Giggs and co if they are willing to stay around and learn from a top class proven manager.
Let’s all hope he can follow moyles in brining utd in the right direction
Let’s all hope your spelling dramatically improves.
