Wayne Rooney EXCLUSIVE: Former England captain claims Louis van Gaal was ‘tactically’ the best manager he worked with
Wayne Rooney has said Louis van Gaal was tactically the best manager he has worked with, despite playing under Sir Alex Ferguson for a number of years.The DC United striker was speaking exclusively to Adrian Durham and Darren Gough on Drivetime – and started by admitting he was surprised about the appointment of David Moyes.2

Rooney has said Van Gaal was the best tactical coach he worked with

“I think Moyes was a bit of a surprise choice but his record at Everton over ten years was great,” the former England captain said.“He got them into the Champions League, finished top half almost every year and did a fantastic job.“I think what Manchester United were trying to to do at the time was bring someone in who had longevity in them as a manager.” Rooney then sung the praises of Van Gaal, who retired earlier this month, insisting no coach he has worked with is better tactically than the Dutchman.He stated: “It didn’t work for David Moyes and they [Manchester United] then went for the experience of Louis van Gaal.2

Rooney enjoyed brilliant success under Sir Alex Ferguson

“He was tactically the best I have worked with – in terms of setting you up in a shape defensively and everyone knowing their roles.“It was just about getting the attacking side right as well as the defensive side.“He won a few trophies but it didn’t pan out the way everyone would have hoped.”
