West Ham manager complained that Van Gaal did not invite him a drink | SOCCER

Apparently, in English football it is customary for the coaches of the opposing teams to meet after games for a fellowship talk and a drink, at least that is what Sam Allardyce, manager of West Ham United, has implied. who in his column published in the London Evening Standard complained that Louis Van Gaal, manager of Manchester United, did not behave in the expected manner, after the duel in which the “Red Devils” defeated his team 2-1.

“I always invite my colleagues to my office for a drink and a chat. It is a valuable tradition and for most coaches, it is one of the few opportunities to have a private conversation. And that’s why I was surprised – Van Gaal’s treatment – ​​and yes, I was disappointed that there was no such invitation on our visit to Old Trafford last weekend,” began a disgruntled Allardyce.

“When the game was over, after so much wear and tear, I went to the office where Sir Alex Ferguson was always waiting for me with a glass of wine and everything had changed. I think that now the room is used for analysis, ”concluded the West Ham coach, who has led English football since 1994, having coached clubs like Blackpool, Newcastle, Bolton.
