re: Louis van Gaal the "Tactical Genius"

Ehh his tactics were horrible yesterday. They played with 6 on the back line. They could have easily gone for it and won. They have the most exciting offensive player in the tournament yet fail to score in 240 minutes when it counted the most. Hopefully he thinks he can win the bpl by playing for draws. IMO he robbed us of a good final. I think the Germans will handle Argentina. Argentina will sit back and allow the Germans posession. Then Muller will nick one late in the 2nd half.
I still think he was a great hire for manu, but its not like he's just going to come in a wreck shite. Coaches make mistakes, he made a mistake on a big stage.

I think people are overly down on this Argentina team by the way. They are excellent defensively and have some of the greatest attacking talent on the planet in Messi, Aguero, Higuain, Lavezzi, and Di Maria. They are built around the idea that they can hold opposing teams at bay while giving enough going forward for one of these guys to break through.
I think if they get their tactics right they can get at this German backline and cause a few problems. And they will make it hard for Germany offensively. So, I think to say that LVG committed an epic fail because the Dutch didn't run over Argentina is not entirely right either.

yes, because you make the same tactical decisions in a semi-final of the world cup as you do in a BPL game in October.

They could have just as easily gone for it, and gotten smoked by that Messi guy.

They got to the semi finals. I know the Dutch like to play total football, but like was mentioned earlier, this is not the same team as past Dutch teams. The only two players that would play on past Dutch teams would be Robben and RVP.

You just sound stupid here.

I can't think of a better final. The two best teams, and a chance for Argentina to leave Brazil with the cup.

I can see this, but I think you underestimate Argentina. They are definitely not Brazil, and with Messi anything can happen.

I don't know any Utd fan that predicts to win the Premiership this year, and most don't predict top 3 finish. I will take either top 4 or FA Cup win to satisfy me.
