Is that the dossier he meant to send to Big Sam?
Louis van Gaal might look like a studious boss on the sideline with his notepad and pen but, actually, all he’s doing is filling out a checklist for a wine order.
The United boss’ tactics sheet was revealed today on the sideline against Crystal Palace when an unfortunate gust of wind blew back a couple of pages to show off what him and Giggsy are really talking about.
And wine company, Farr Vintners, were the real winners as they got a free plug on the Saturday evening Premier League game and a shining endorsement from the Old Trafford boss himself.
In a week where Floyd Mayweather is walking into the ring with the Burger King king though, you’d have to forgive our cynical side for wondering if van Gaal got paid to advertise the drink.
Doubtful. Perhaps he’s just planning ahead for the top four celebrations.

The biggest shame is that no-one will have the balls to ask him about it.
It was bizarre and all the rest but it will still take some doing to top Paul Ince’s match-day notes.
