Say what you see, Louis. There’s just no pretence with Louis van Gaal. If he thinks you should apologise, he will ask you to. If he thinks you’re fat, he will say you are. The Manchester United boss left another press conference prematurely on Wednesday but not before he could comment on the weight of […]

It’s the most vital make-or-break game for Louis van Gaal since his last vital make-or-break game. On paper, fifth place Man United should breeze past third from third from bottom Newcastle United, but St James’ Park is never an easy place to visit under the floodlights – especially when you’re under serious pressure. Van Gaal has […]

If you’ve ever wondered what footballers do when they’re out injured, it might not surprise you to find out the answer is play a f**k load of FIFA. Luke Shaw hasn’t played a minute for Manchester United since suffering a horrific double leg break back in September, so he’s had plenty of time to build […]

Scott Waites might be taking on Jeff Smith in the BDO World Darts final, but everybody’s talking about Bobby George. The legendary player-turned-presenter has never been afraid to rock an unusual outfit, and he didn’t disappoint fans on Sunday night with this number.

Make no mistake about it, Gerard Deulofeu is a very talented footballer. But for all his ability, during his time at Everton we’ve noticed that he has a tendency to go down quite easily once in a while. During Everton’s League Cup semi against Manchester City, Deulofeu was felled by a challenge – drawing a […]

The latest Premier League TV contract means clubs are not as desperate for freebies as they used to be. But with some experienced and talented stalwarts out of contract at the end of the season, that may change. There are a few on the older side, like Arsenal’s Mikel Arteta and Tomas Rosicky, and a […]

It’s official – Zinedine Zidane is the new manager of Real Madrid. Despite having no top flight management experience to speak of, the footballing icon has replaced Rafa Benitez as Head Coach. No doubt Real hope that Zidane will replicate the huge success that Pep Guardiola enjoyed at Barcelona when he was similarly promoted from […]

The January transfer window is open, which means it’s time to start speculating on players’ futures again. Last year saw one of the most farcical transfer sagas of recent memory when David de Gea’s proposed move to Real Madrid fell apart seemingly because of a faxing error. Manchester United fans were thrilled to have held […]

Ever since a 5p charge on plastic shopping bags was introduced to the UK last year, people have been searching for ways around the charge. For some, that means simply reusing old bags, but Mark Noble has a different plan. During Saturday’s 2-0 win over Liverpool, the West Ham captain came across a plastic bag which […]

Times have been tough for Louis van Gaal, but 2016 might bring kinder days for the Dutchman. We’re just two days into the new year, but already the Manchester United forwards have rediscovered the Old Trafford net after both Wayne Rooney and Anthony Martial were on the scoresheet on Saturday. In a post-match interview, a clearly […]

Louis van Gaal just can’t catch a break at the moment, which is in stark contrast to the form of one of his Manchester United rejects. While the Red Devils have struggled desperately for goals this season – notching up another 0-0 draw against Chelsea – Javier Hernandez has hit a purple patch at new […]

Raheem Sterling must be used to taking some stick by now, given the uproar among Liverpool fans when he completed his £49m move to Manchester City. The England winger was the butt of the jokes again earlier this week when pictures emerged of his new hairstyle. But Sterling wasn’t bothered by the p*ss-taking, instead having […]

Louis van Gaal has told Manchester United supporters there is no quick fix to the team’s poor form as he holds on under immense pressure at Old Trafford.
