Wonder how long it'll take lvg to bite this time?

My first thought is that he's basing his comments on working with LVG 17 years ago. More than half of LVG's career has passed since they parted ways. Perhaps the old man has learned a thing or two since then and changed his approach. Personally, I don't get the sense that our players are afraid of him. I think fear was probably a bigger weapon in Fergie's armoury.
I do think he puts more pressure on the players in terms of expecting them to think more, which could be a factor in our mediocre form.

Koeman worked with him at Ajax around 2005 and Van Gaal was booted within a month because of a falling out with Koeman.

I look forward to some pie charts showing Fear to Results ratio and how an arm around the shoulder leads to a 10% decrease in direct balls played
To hell with arm around the shoulders of rich-a*s-grown men!

Sideways fear is okay.
