What sort of twisted world are we living in?

That was Louis van Gaal's assessment of a question he was posed today after United's 3-0 dismantling of Spurs. The Sun published a video this morning of Wayne Rooney boxing with Phil Bardsley in a kitchen ending with the United captain being knocked to the floor and, even in the aftermath of a thoroughly superb performance this afternoon, the Old Trafford boss was being asked about the clip. Well, Louis van Gaal is no mug, if you didn't know by now, and his answer on Sky Sports was absolutely perfect. The Dutch coach has no time for the topic and finished off his smack down of the reporter with a firm, "I don't want to answer this question because I think it is ridiculous." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nbvt9y189YM
