Louis van Gaal is one of the true tactical masterminds of the past two decades, and has managed European giants Ajax, Barcelona and Bayern Munich.Stefan Coerts of Goal.com writes about the polarizing shadow that van Gaal casts everywhere he manages.
September 28 was just any other day for most people, but it was a rather special occasion for one of the most colourful figures of the footballing world. On Wednesday, it was exactly 20 years ago that Louis van Gaal was appointed as head coach for the first time in what would prove to be a rather impressive coaching career.
Although the Dutchman is currently unemployed, following his exit at Bayern Munich earlier this year, there's little doubt that van Gaal is one of the best tacticians of the past two decades, and it all started at Eredivisie giants Ajax in the autumn of 1991.
