Louis Van Gaal : The Documentary

Not sure if I’ve seen a thread about this on here yet, but it’s now available on Prime.

It’s a stunning and emotional watch. And very very funny at times. What a bloke he is.

Features cameos from EtH, Wazza and Daley Blind amongst others.

Can’t find a trailer that has English subs, the one on Prime does obviously. And a lot of it is in English anyway.

Ideal watch before the big man makes history tonight

Big fella fighting prostate cancer on the quiet for a while. Finally told the Dutch national team in April. Good luck with the fight.

As a man I love him, the way he treaded the English gutter media was a sight to behold. No doubt he's a fantastic manager also but £#%&! me his United team were absolute torture to watch at times. Will always have a soft spot for the guy though.

Pretty much this


Top guy. Top manager. But £#%&!ing hell, we were dull to watch the majority of the time.

he might have been building something but we'll never know. torn between if we should have given him another season, but regardless woodward was a @#%&! to him.

Man what a day.....

Thanks for the heads up ...

Was a £#%&!ing disgrace how the club got rid of him just after we'd won the FA Cup.

An all time favourite manager. Something was being built whether you liked him or not. He was sadly never going to win the fight against the suits.

The United parts made me quite emotional tbh.

There’s one but where’s he looking on his laptop at a photo of him looking magnificent in his club blazer on a match day at old Trafford, saying how much he loves this photo. Got it up on his office wall, along with one celebrating the FA Cup win.

Rooney saying that in his entire time at United they’d never worked on team shape before Van Gaal

The story of how he was sacked is absolutely shameful, especially hearing it from the horses mouth. Rooney said the most impressive thing was he still came in the next morning and talked about plans and schedules for pre-season as normal, until it was made official.

This.

Getting pillaged by Liverpool and watching city pass the ball around amongst themselves for 90 minutes under Solskjaer was pretty dull.

Think he was before Ole, mate.

Never liked him. Seems like a right #@&%!. Strikes me as a bully. And he looks proper weird.

I think that's because he's socially awkward and thinks journalists are morons. Plus he's not great at speaking foreign languages (one of the reasons the press in Barcelona really hated him) but there's a fair bit of arrogance too, sure

Just finished it. What an absolute titan of a man.

I don’t dislike him and think he was a good manager at one point in time and he seems a right character which is good for the game, but I don’t get the ott admiration tbh.

Great that he’s kicked cancers arse (twice?) and wish his all the best. Just don’t get the school boy fanfare quite a few seem to have.

I bet this is a good watch though.

Career highlight imo...
