Man Utd: 10 Reasons Louis Van Gaal Is Doomed To Fail

3. How Well Does He Know The Current Market?

This appointment may succeed or fail on the back of how well Van Gaal does in the transfer market. Many people are in agreement that a massive rebuilding job is required at Manchester United this summer. It remains to be seen if the Dutch coach is the right man to do that job. As ever, there are a few different sides to this because he certainly has the pull to attract some of the best players, and we are led to believe that there is a fair bit of money to spend. However, there is no Champions League football to attract players and Van Gaal may not be not familiar with the current transfer market due to his involvement in international football. As we know, the decisions he makes need to be the right ones. So, if he is to be successful then he is going to be somewhat reliant on other people around him. Man Utd want to rebuild, but they will find things difficult and many players may not fancy a spell at Old Trafford just now. If he can€™t add well to the squad €“ then he may suffer some of the same problems that David Moyes faced.
