As per a recent report, it seems Rory McIlroy has questioned the fact whether Dutch boss Louis van Gaal is the right man to lead Premier League giants Manchester United. The Red Devils’ boss has once again spent a lot of cash in the summer transfer window to produce a title challenge, but is already five points behind league leaders Manchester City in the table at present.
Further, the four-time major-winning golfer McIlroy, who is also a United fan does not seem to think that Van Gaal is the right man to bring back the glory days for the Old Trafford side.
In a recent interview, he said, “I think the new signings will be good in time, but I’m not convinced LVG is the right man to lead us.”
“I don’t know, it’s a hard one. Everyone is dropping points, and it looks like City might run away with the league.”
“At least we’re back in Europe, so that’s a good thing.”
Also, talking about skipper Wayne Rooney he told Sky Sports, “Rooney did well for England at the weekend, so hopefully that will give him confidence when he returns to domestic football.”
“A top-four finish is obviously likely, and hopefully we’ll challenge for the title, but we’ll see.”
