Completely irrelevant but do a lot of people in Holland know English? I'm going there soon so just wondering.
I think English is all Dutch to most people in Holland.
Most of them! It's the 2nd language
I know!
Some Dutch speak English better than Dutch

I would add that many Dutch citizens speak demonstrably better English than the Brits speak English.
Good post, but the point you are making will be lost on most of the people on here, which is a shame.
Not a Utd fan but this is a great article. Welcome to the site.

Has Macca risen from the dead yet?
I've not seen him around since he stopped posting half way through a comment. Missing, presumed dead, or lost. You know how the old folks can be!
"As a Man Utd supporter. I think we should be proud of the improvements this year. Don't just look to the title or the pointgap with Chelsea! Just enjoy the great teamspirit of the last few games and the confidence of most of the United players at the moment."
Can't agree more with this bit. I haven't been this enthusiastic about United performances for maybe 4 or 5 years... Such a drastic improvement. OT was rocking at the weekend too.
Thanks guys for welcoming me!
I've been reading here for a while and really think the club is heading in the right direction with LVG.
Like some of you ,for nearly 20 years i disliked LVG. Always getting it right and the total domination of dutch football,winning everything with Ajax(I hate Ajax).
Always 65% ball possesion making the other team look pathetic.I always thought he was just lucky, with the best players.But as i grew up,I realized that he was actualy making players better.(Barca,AZ,Bayern) Not better in the sense of learning tricks or something,but better in being aware of your position and role in the team and doing your task with confidence.(not working with Falcao/Di Maria so far,but i know Louis is working on it).He even made the worst Dutch defense in modern history look like a fortress winning a bronze world cup-medal.
I think this is what we are seeing right now at United.LVG is the right man for United!Good times ahead!
the OP's article reminds me of Liverpool's performances this year.
