    He has ordered Luke Shaw to train alone - saying he is not fit enough This after being on World Cup duty with England? Also having just spent £28m on him - Crazy.

    He's fallen out with someone at every club or country he has ever managed, so why would it be different now? He normally goes for a surprising big name bust-up to assert his authority so this will just be a 'spat'. I'm predicting Rooney, Mata or RvP again.

    This was mentioned to Bruce on Talksport this morning, he said he didn't think it was a big deal, we have Jelavic training on his own as the World Cup players came back later than everyone else and needed extra fitness training to get them up to speed.

    Well yeah. The rest of the squad have done 3 weeks intensive while he's been sat on his arse. If he wasn't behind them in terms of fitness then there's something wrong with our pre-season training.

    Yeah, but what I want to know is - why is Van Gaal's face so flat?

    Cheers.

    The season hasnt got going yet and I'm fed up of hearing LVG's opinions every bloody minute.
    Mind you, the spats between him and the 'not so special one' might be entertaining

    How is he 'not so special'? 4 league wins including in 3 of the world's biggest leagues, only 3rd man ever to win the UCL with 2 different clubs, only man in history to win a one season treble in Italy...

    Cos people who really are special let their achievements do the talking- just my opinion mind, so if you disagree that's no problem!

    He's half Korean and was once in a head on collision with a Mack truck.

    That's my guess anyway.

    But his achievements talk really, really loudly.

    And how many autobiographies did Sir Alex have? He hardly hid his success under a bushel.

    All the other England players from Man Utd are training with the full squad. So how can a player who has only been back from England duty be considered unfit, or got himself unfit?


    Was he unfit whilst representing his country?

    Very strange though seen as though he stopped his holiday short to train with united before he had to.

    Whilst they didn't play much, fitness would still be paramount in case of injury to first choice players.

    These dutch abbreviations are becoming a pet hate of mine.

    Is it really difficult to say "Van Gaal"?
