    Interesting comments from Van Gaal. What an easy thing to say, now that Rivaldo has gone. "It wasn't me, it was him!!!"

    Another reason I don't like Van Gaal, doesn't even take responsibility for his team winning and losing...

    Van Gaal had Figo when he was at Barca too. Was it Figo's fault as well? Who's fault was it that Holland didn't qualify for the WC? It must have been Kluivert's fault. Oh wait, Kluivert is on Barca. He must sell Kluivert right away.

    By the way, all Milan fans thank Mr. Van Gaal for his gift to Milan.

    Don't forget that Van Gaal also had Guardiola that year. Barça's inability or unwillingness to sign him a couple of years ago saved Van Gaal the trouble of having to get rid of him now.

    Exactly. Correctly if I'm wrong, does it take 11 players and not 1 player to win the title. Van Gaal doesn't have the sense to notice it. For one I don't blame the Barca fans for not being happy for his return.

    They just don't like each other, those two.... Much better now that they're divorced.

    Wasn't the rap on Rivaldo always that he played better for his club than he did for his country? Now after WC2002 the situation is suddenly reversed. Amazing how that happens.
