WOW! Louis van Gaal is so arrogant, condescending and dismissive here. He really comes off as unlikable here. Sure, the questions he’s being asked are kind of stupid and pointless, but how are the questions any dumber or worse than what Van Gaal (or any other Manager for that matter) receives post-match?
Louis van Gaal obviously could have taken his team’s 1-nil defeat at Chelsea much much better than he did.
Well, this is awkward…

I sort of want to feel sorry for the reporter, but then again, I can’t. They have a nice, easy, cushy job. And these types of interviews are useless anyway across the board. Still the Manchester United Manager saying “we played the best match in the world,” and “we played out best match of the season.”
That’s highly debatable an very highly questionable. But hey, Louis van Gaal behaving in this manner was certainly entertaining.
