I had my doubts about whether BR should stay or go. But my mind is made up.
If I needed to see the difference to what a true quality manager/coach can achieve I only had to look at Van Gaal.
On paper, I think for the first time in a long time our squad was just as good if not better. Yes, he spent big money, but so has BR. I know they scraped through a lot of games & were largely woeful but he turned it around.
The key point being, he had a plan, a formula in mind & adapted it when needed and as such reaped the reward come end of season. BR has had 3 seasons to do this but still, he clearly is undecided what to do next or how to adapt when its not working tactically.

Some good players there .! The keeper is brilliant . Herrera took a little while but he's looking a top player . Even Young is looking a player . Then u got Rooney up top . Along with carrick their pine is very good . Even their centre halves are better than ours which wouldn't be hard . I'd much rather their squad . You be daft to think ours is better

Without doubt they have some quality key players & the purchases he bought made them stronger. The difference being he knew where he wanted to play them & how he wanted them to function within the team. The players we have are just as good in many respects but being made to look awful due to being out of position & mis-managed tactically. BR has bought players with no clue what to do with them. I couldn't care less if we didn't buy big name players as long as they were the right fit for the team & their skill set matched the criteria of what was being asked of them.

I must be daft then as I think our squad is better.

Our squad is better and that is a clear, IMO. I would take Sahko and Lovren over Jones and Smalling anyday. The only place thay are better is at the GK position and maybe up top and I`m being nice. What we don`t have is a manager who has an idea of what he is trying to do. Tha`s the diff and LVG is not the answer because they have served up dross just like us globally, over this season but unlike us, they scraped thru while we, didn`t
