Van Gaal said: “I came very close. Very close. As a little boy I was a fan of Tottenham Hotspur with the team of Jimmy Greaves when he was the champion. Jimmy Greaves was my idol. So I was very close. I was a fan of Spurs during my childhood. Those fantastic white shirts and Jimmy Greaves.”
Louis van Gaal came ‘very close’ to managing Tottenham Hotspur
The hair looks like it might match, but isn't that a little tall for Mourinho?
I thought that but see above. Woodward is a short arse.The hair looks like it might match, but isn't that a little tall for Mourinho?
Oh shit, you're not wrong there!
What is it with tiny chairmen?!
This is a difficult one for United, they will like to think they are bigger enough to attract Guardiola, but he will probably keep his options open until the end of the season.
By which stage United could be out of the CL for next season, and then he definitely won't go there.
Or do they sack Van Gaal now and go with Mourinho....no guarantee he'll be the man they need.
Or do they appoint Giggs short term......what if that kind of goes okay but not great?.....
What if they do nothing and miss out on all of the top managers in the current merrygoround?
Thought it may have been an old photo as Mourinhos hair is much shorter now.
