Manchester United’s Louis van Gaal produces dossier in bid to counter ‘long-ball’ jibe

http://www.theguardian.com/football/...g-ball-dossier

Louis van Gaal’s irritation about the “long-ball United” tag applied by Sam Allardyce manifested itself in an unorthodox press conference in which he came armed with a four-page pamphlet of statistics aimed at dismantling the allegation and then asked his audience to show it to West Ham United. “Copy it and go to Big Sam,” an indignant Van Gaal said.

Must admit that Sam resorted to the horrible unattractive long-ball in the ManU game.

I shouted at the TV..."Big Sam you don't have to do that, keep the ball--you are winnin'...." .

With the introduction of Alex Song in the midfield, West Ham had started to play a possession style football IMO. That is the difference that kept them in the top 10.

Sam had a relapse in playing that awful english developed long-ball...during the final part of that game ~awrwk~(my choking sound)
