Robin Van Persie on Sir Alex Ferguson
We came from behind 26 times that season. Fergie always made you express yourself. Sometimes he'd come in and say, 'Boys, where do i start? Its boring! . Imagine me 72 years old, watching this kind of game?
He'd say 'Excites me. Try a pass over 40 meters. Try a dribble. I don't care if it goes wrong. I want to sit on the edge of my seat. Please excite me. And make the game quicker, please. He was a genius.
I really do miss Sir Alex Ferguson so much : ( . Imagine what Sir Alex Ferguson would do with this Man United team and with a huge transfer kitty at his disposal! #Total Domination#. Our defensive approach is affecting players like Darmian, depay, herrera and mate for playing with flair and attacking exploits. United have the calibre of players to play good attacking football. Its not rocket science that LVG is too defensive minded. I hope LVG improves our game play as the season goes on as I feel he is experienced enough and i believe he will get things right with united. He has done more good for the club than bad so I fully support him till he leaves. The next manager of MUFC will have a great squad of players and foundation to work on all thanks to LVG. GGMU

Did LVG buy all the players though or did Woodward? Herrera and Shaw were done deals.
Di Maria didn't seem like a LVG buy. So it makes you wonder who he bought and who Woodward bought.

All players purchased are directly by his instructions. Ed woodward has no views on what is a good winger/forward/midfielder/etc ted. he does the deals period.
Patrick Kluivert who was LVG's assistant at the world cup said LVG wanted Di maria very badly and was very excited to know he was coming. Some of you guys are always looking for someone to blame but LVG.
You are correct to assume Herrera and shaw were Moyes scouts but they have not exactly turned into bad buys have they. The rest are all his.

'Moyes signings' have performed the best for LVG which is worrying.

Perhaps the best signing of all will be Martial and that is clearly an LVG signing, plus keep an eye on Fosu Mensah. I wonder if LVG will be given the credit for them or Darmian or Memphis? So not all of them are flavour of the week at the moment yet see where they are in a couple of years.
