He was and could have joined them but picked Chelsea instead. Though he was only 14.

Is this a joke about that CL final, or are you serious?

Serious, he's on record saying that his family is and he grew up supporting United, met Ferguson etc but then decided Chelsea was the better club for him.

Out of sheer curiosity, how long do most Man Utd fans think LvG will be manager for? Given his age.

When most people mentioned his name before his appointment it was mainly as a stop gap for a few years, to steady the ship and begin a rebuild until someone like Klopp comes available. Ultimately though presuming he does a decent job he'll leave whenever he wants to.

Dutch managers generally don't like to stick around for too long anyway.

Apparently was. The account was made private and unverified. Seems fine now. These hackers could have done so much more.

Nike have apparently pulled out of renegotiations for the kit deal. Adidas, Warrior or Puma then. Please Adidas.

Having seen the new Stuttgart kit, I'd take Puma in a heartbeat.

For ten years.

£750 million. That's almost as much as the Glazer's bought the entire club for.

He still looks like a cunt but the afro suits him more. There's nothing special about him now, I wonder why the change suddenly.

Adidas confirmed.

Manchester United plc (NYSE:MANU) has reached a ten-year agreement with adidas for a global technical sponsorship and dual branded licensing deal for a minimum guarantee of GBP 750 million, subject to certain adjustments, beginning with the 2015/2016 campaign.

For the 2014/2015 season, Nike will continue in its role of technical sponsor and trademark licensee

"10 year agreement, 750 million"

Does that mean 75 million pounds a season? That's genuinely obscene.

Yep.

Andy Mitten did a video:

Vidal does want to come to United, he is at a great club, but 'United are bigger'
Negotiations are definitely taking place
He does think a deal will be done
Though says a lot needs to be sorted out IF it happens
United keeping cards close to chest
United really want players who want to come to the club. Herrera was distraught last season, they knew he wanted to. They also knew Shaw wanted to come in January so that was important for the club.

I think that last point is really interesting, perhaps explains why interest in players that we perhaps could have got never materialised.

Vidal also said that he's already at a great club so if Utd doesn't go through or whatever he doesn't mind, might not suit the last point

True, but then again Herrera said worse after the deal collapsed last year. I think it means more along the lines of wanting to play for Manchester United for the sake of it rather than wanting to play for Manchester United because they're paying you a gazillion pounds a year.

Loving Van Gaal's press conference. Speaking very openly, honestly and with a lot of sense. Very excited about the new season.
