Apart from the Carneiro episode what antics are you referring to that are so far out there? And so different from Fergie's outbursts?
And as for a rivalry with Pep? What are you expecting any different from Fergies battles with Wenger both on and off the pitch and in the tunnel, and Benetiz and Keegan and Dalglish.
I fully expect a few meltdowns, a few FA fines. He's a bad loser and that is good. As the saying goes .. show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser. As mentioned van Gaal thought mediocrity was ok, that's not the case with the likes of him or SAF. If boots need to be kicked into heads or cups smashed against the wall then so be it.
