So, who's he bringing in then?

With Vidic's, Rio, Evra and Giggs gone there's a lot of experience to replace, to say nothing of the shit@#%&!s that want ditching. Maybe one or two from the Dutch squad as well as a couple widely touted?

Probs.

Martins Indi would be a good shout

Also maybe Van Dijk from Celtic (We've been linked with him before)

I'll say Shaw, Garay and The Dutch TC23.

Van Gaal and Giggs has a pretty decent ring to it and you'd think might turn a few more players heads than Moyes and Round.

Let'sch hope scho.

Might depend on who he can shift. No doubt he'll bring a few regardless, but whether he can cut loose the likes of Buttner, Andow, Young could be a factor. Bebe still contracted to the club, what to do with Zaha etc. Lots to consider.

Surely to £#%&! at long last the focus will be on midfield.

Vidal and Barkley, cheers.

No ta. Perhaps Depay, but their squad is £#%&! at the moment.

Unrealistically; 2 centre mids, 1 centre back, 1 left back and 1 winger.

Garay, Shaw, Kroos, Fabregas.

Garay/Hummels
Shaw
Kroos
Clasie
Depay

That Dutch journo who is close to the van Gaal camp has tipped Hummels as the most obvious target.

Didn't Van Gaal let him leave when he was at Bayern?

Think that's a myth that has developed recently. I believe Bayern had already signed him off before van Gaal took over.

Fair enough.

Minimum imo.

I'd heard that, but apparently it's not the case.

Just checked and he joined Dortmund on-loan in January 2008, move made permanent in February 2009. LvG took over Bayern in July 2009.

More disinformation from the scaredy cat brigade, good to see.

Hummels is "his favourite" defender
