    He'll be a big miss for sure, but we've coped quite well (better than I thought) without him. Walcott and Campbell have been dynamite. Looking forward to the game against you lot <ok>. Not expecting it to be easy. It never is when we play you!

    We need all the help we can get right now, no matter how small.

    I find it amusing that people on twitter say something is exclusive news when there are 5000 other people tweeting it at the same time. <laugh>

    Good riddance to Van Gaal is what I say. Poor football, arrogant man, and Ronald hates him.

    LvG's press conference ahead of their Boxing Day fixture last just 4 minutes and 58 seconds.

    He answered two questions from Sky, then told the journalists to enjoy their mince pies and wine and then stormed out, saying he'd take no questions from the newspaper journalists. He also demanded an apology from the newspaper journalists in the room for speculating about his future.

    I assume the journalists all said "we're sorry" in perfect unison.

    Just seen it....makes himself look daft and also suggests he feels undermined. You need a thicker skin with the press...he's just given them copy. Koeman just brushed it off whilst not denying that anything can happen in football.

    Do you remember when he got copied stats sheets out and the woman behind just rolled her eyes. I only hope she didn't get fired.

    If I didn't dislike the guy so much I would actually admire him for taking that stance with the press. Connor I exclude you from this generalisation but sometimes someone has to speak out against all the total bullshit which is written and spoken about people in the public eye. Yes, he made himself look stupid but he made a very good point in amongst the theatrics, that the media do have an obligation to try and speak the truth.
