The Reds have spent big, and with massive signings such as Bastian Schweinsteiger and Morgan Schneiderlin, LVG has looked to bolster his central midfield options, and have attacking flair out wide in the form of Memphis Depay. It will be interesting to see how these signings gel together, LVG brought in Di Maria last year, one of the best players in the world, and he looked distinctly average in this United side, along with world-class striker Radamel Falcao. Question marks have therefore been raised about Van Gaal's ability to manage the great players of the world, and it will certainly be very intriguing to see how the new boys work together in this side. Darmian looks to be a good signing, and hopefully he can produce something that this United side have lack for the past couple of years. Unfortunately for fans of the Red Devils, I still have my reservations about LVG as a manager, and I can't see them performing better than Chelsea, Arsenal or their rivals Manchester City. I do think European football is on the cards for them next year however, with a closely fought 4th place finish.
Best Transfer Business:
Signing Matteo Darmian. The right back is a great player who will add a vital defensive ability that United lack so dearly.
Worst Transfer Business:
At the risk of being hated by everyone I'm going to say Bastian Schweinsteiger. There is no doubting the quality of the player, it's just a shame that he is going to spend his Manchester United days in the physio room all the time, as in the past few years he has been increasingly injury prone and I don't see him having a big part to play in Manchester United's forthcoming seasons.
