Van Gaal hints Man United may be interested in Real’s Ramos
United are in the market for a back-up goalkeeper as Louis van Gaal revealed that Victor Valdes will be sold for refusing to play for the club’s reserve side last season, as reported by the BBC.
“Wayne coached me a lot through the game and talked to me about which position I should take and when to defend”, the Dutchman said. I have always felt good with the players at United, but with the supporters it was hard a little bit when I arrived.
Herrera scored eight goals last season but was only United’s 13th most-used player.
The former United manager was in attendance in San Jose, however, and it was obvious from Van Gaal’s treatment of the Scot that he is completely comfortable in his presence.
Blind is a Dutch worldwide familiar with Van Gaals philosophy and is a very technical player on the ball who can pick out a pass.
“From early on in the season, against West Brom and Chelsea, he saw my quality and began to know what I can do”. Instead of his normal wing position, he instead was placed centrally behind Wayne Rooney, sandwiched between Ashley Young and Juan Mata. “I let him and my team-mates down and that was not good for the team”.
Ramos now plays for Spanish giants Real Madrid. “It is where I like and it is where I will play”.
The England global is expected to lead the line for the Red Devils next season after the departures of Radamel Falcao and Robin van Persie. All the other seasons, I have been up front, then in midfield or out wide, so hopefully if I will stay up front. He hinted that deals were unlikely to be completed before the U.S. tour, before United then signed three players in three days to make the squad multiple times stronger. Yes, I think so. But last season, especially over the final few months, some big teams came to Old Trafford and did not get a chance to win.
After Tuesday’s match, United will face Barcelona on Saturday before wrapping up their tour against Paris Saint-Germain in Chicago.
However, Rooney insisted that every minute of preparation in the United States was focused on hitting the ground running when the season started on August 8.
Memphis Depay is a winger who has said to have based his game off Cristiano Ronaldo, but doesn’t want to be compared to him.
