Goals Scored:
Van Gaal: 34 goals (1.62 per game)
Moyes: 35 goals (1.67 per game)
Yes, despite adding the likes of Columbian superstar Radamel Falcao, Real Madrid’s Angel Di Maria and midfield maestro Ander Herrera, David Moyes’s Manchester United managed more goals than van Gaal’s at the same period of the season.
In fact, none of van Gaal’s new boys have managed to surpass any of the United old guard or even Moyes’ key signing Juan Mata.
Both di Maria and Falcao have just three strikes each whilst van Persie and Rooney are both on eight and Mata has hit the net five times.
With Falcao’s wages being estimated at an eye watering £40,000 per day, since his loan move from Monaco in the summer; United have given the South American approximately £1.77m per goal scored.
