Manchester United had a disaster season under the management of David Moyes last term but things have not improved even now.
Louis van Gaal with all his experience and top signings has not been able to impress one bit with United now guaranteed a trophy-less season.
With no European football, United could only win just 3 cup games and may as well lose out on top 4 finish to complete the misery.
The tactics of Van Gaal that were praised world wide during the World Cup are now the biggest concern for Man United. Other than that, world class signings have not delivered, particularly record signing Angel Di Maria who was a superstar with Real Madrid.
The Argentine has been highly inconsistent with the Red Devils and one Man United legend Paul Parker has come up with a comment on Di Maria that may not please United fans but makes complete sense.
Parker claimed:
“The only way it is going to work out for Di Maria, the only way he is going to get back to being the player he was before, is to move on,”
“PSG would suit him nicely, as would going back to Real Madrid. In England, Arsenal are the best fit for the way they shift the ball around quickly in midfield, but even Chelsea would be a better home for him than United as they are a bit more expressive now.”
Since it is highly likely that Louis van Gaal will be sacked after his first season, United should consider selling Di Maria to find someone who fits the Dutch manager’s system.
Van Gaal is adamant and believes in his tactics a little too much, perhaps it is better for the former Benfica winger to leave United.

It is time we have been speaking too much tactics and statistics, but the results remain static, Angel Di maria, has to gel with other players. He is strong, it looks like he has a fear in the subconscious mind about every player he opposite team player, this has to be addressed. Everyone knows that di maria is a strong midfielder, but others to understand his running around should be like spanish and Latin American Players who are strong and passionate in playing football, they don’t just stand only to their positions, but move about. Attacking and defending are more important for today’s football. At the same time creating chances in the midfield, this could be backed only when the defense is dependable, not with people like evans, smalling. The club should be desperate to sign some bold players, who could tell the club that they can relax. One can’t be blaming Di maria alone to be the culprit. Forget talking rubbish, but results are important, if we have to get Champions league football.
