We have seen a few articles popping up in the last week that suggest that Manchester United are willing to give manager Louis van Gaal another year in charge of the club. Now I know the Dutchman has a year left on his deal but for the life of me I just can’t see why […]

First off I don’t believe that Manchester United or their coach Louis van Gaal have just decided that FC Barcelona’s Pedro wasn’t good enough for their squad.
