 he was disappointed by Manchester United’s first-half performance after the Red Devils were held to a 1-1 Champions League draw by CSKA Moscow on Wednesday night.
And Van Gaal revealed that he expressed his disappointment at the performance at the break when addressing his players.
Van Gaal told his post-match news conference: “[At half-time] I just gave my advice to the players about how we could win the game because that’s more important than just being angry.

“Angry is not the right word, maybe disappointed because we were playing too slowly in ball possession.
“We had a lot but you have to create something from that and we didn’t create much.
My spinning instructor has a saying that goes, "First class is hard, second class you're more hesitant to go because you know what to expect, third class is the worst, and by the fifth you're addicted."
Tonight I did my third Bikram Yoga class. It was definitely the worst. I knew what to expect and I was more conscious of my form and whether or not I was doing the pose properly. I found myself getting frustrated when I couldn't hold a pose or when I couldn't reach as far as I wanted to reach and I feel like I left the class in a bit of a funk.
I really want to love Bikram Yoga like I love spinning. I look forward to spinning every week and I am excited every time I walk into class because I know I'm about to have a great workout. So I will push through though and will go into class number four with an open mind and will hopefully begin to love and become "addicted" to Bikram Yoga!
After class I came home and made a smoothie. I followed the recipe for Julie from Peanut Butter Finger's Ice Cream Smoothies only I made a few small changes. I added a teaspoon of cocoa powder and I also substituted coconut water for milk because I was feeling a bit dehydrated.
Into the blender went:
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 c. coconut water
- 1 tsp. honey
- 1 tsp. cocoa powder
Yum!
So true about what your spinning instructor said. I never really caught on with yoga, I guess because I never made a commitment to it. I want to try pilates though, I think that could be good. Funny how you "want" to love something!!
Love your blog and consider me a new follower! Bikram-man, we have a love/hate relationship! I hate when I'm there and think, "is this even healthy?" but afterwards I love the toning and flexibility I get from it. I can't do it often though and only do it once every 4 months.
Smoothie sounds delish too!
It will happen! I became addicted to Bikram a few years ago... happened quickly for me. It was such a hard workout but so gratifying in the end! That smoothie sounds delicious!!! XO brynnHistory of Mysore
Mysore was the capital of the Kingdom of Mysore until 1950, except in the 18th century when Haidar Ali and Tipu Sultan were the defacto rulers for a 40-year period. Mysore state continued to be ruled by Maharaja H.H. Jaya Chamaraja Wadiyar till Mysore became part of Indian Republic on 26-1-1950.
And now the Mysore city is the headquarters of Mysore District. Mysore city is also known as the 'City of Palaces' and the 'Ivory City'. The famous Chamundi Hill, which is mythological associated with the name of the city, is to its southeast.
Mysore was ruled by the demon-king Mahishasura, he was a buffalo-headed monster. Hence, came the name of this place - Mahishuru, the city of demon Mahisha.. The anglicised form of the name is Mysore.
The earliest mention of Mysore or Mahishur historically is referred to the time of King Ashoka in 245 B.C. However, it is only from the 10th Century that a proper and consistent line of history of Mysore can be traced.
The Ganga Dynasty appeared in the scene of the Mysore of History in the 2nd Century and ruled Mysore till 1004. The next dynasty who left their mark on the pages of the History of Mysore was the Cholas who ruled the region for about a Century. The Cholas were followed by the Chalukyas and the Hoysalas. A number of inscriptions from the 11th and 12th Centuries are found in Mysore, which provides clue about the happenings in the region.
History of Mysore points out that it was in 1399 A.D that the Yadu dynasty came to power in Mysore. A feudatory of the Vijaynagar Empire, the Yadu dynasty contributed significantly to the development of Mysore. Bettada Chamaraja Wodeyar, the raja of Mysore rebuilt the fort of Mysore and made his headquarters and called the city 'Mahishuru Nagara' meaning the city of Mahishur. The year 1610 was a land mark in the history of Mysore as it was in this year that Raja Waidyar shifted the capital from Mysore to Srirangapatnam. From the year 1761 to 1799 Mysore was ruled by Hyder Ali and his son Tipu Sultan. Mysore remained the second most important city till the death of Tipu Sultan. After the defeat of Tipu Sultan in the Anglo Mysore War the History of Mysore once again took a sharp turn.
As the History of Mysore went under the control of the Britishers, they placed a minor Prince Krishnaraja Wodeyar on the throne of Mysore. It was practically from this time that the city started to grow. During the reign of Mummadi Krishna Raja Wodeyar(Krishna Raja Wodeyar III) the town of Mysore expanded and moved beyond the walls of the fort. H.H. Chamaraja Wodeyar adopted son of Mummadi Krishna Raja Wodeyar, succeeded him and ruled Mysore Kingdom form 1881 to 1894. H.H. Nalvadi Krishna Raja Wodeyar(Krishnaraja Wodeyar IV) eldest son Mummadi Krishna Raja Wodeyar, ruled mysore from 1895-1940 and developed Mysore into a beautiful city with excellent planning. Under his reign Mysore became famous for its wide roads, magnificent building and elegant parks. During Nalvadi Krishna Raja Wodeyar's minority his mother H.H. Vani Vilas Sannidhana ruled as regent from 1895-1902.
Even after British India gained Independent dominion status on 15-8-1947, Mysore continued as a Sovereign State under the Maharaja H.H. Jaya Chamaraja Wodeyar albeit with a responsible Government headed by Mr. K.C. Reddy as the Chief Minister. However, the Constituent Assembly of Mysore decided to adopt the Constitution of India and on 26-1-1950, Mysore merged with the Republic of India as a Part -B State. But the Maharaja Continued as the Rajpramukh of the State as per Art. 366(21) of the Constitution.Certainly excited about what the defense could bring to the table in 2022, my only concerns being: 1) Injuries at key spots like DE, DB and maybe even LB due to either inexperience or lack of depth 2) Rush defense has got to be MUCH better this season for us to take another step forward, in most of our losses last year there was one alarming trend, an inability to stop the run. Front 7 while replacing some guys have loads of experience and talent overall at least in the first group. Looking forward to this season, and I do believe more people will know who Clayton White is by seasons end, as what he did last season was phenomenal.
I think the only team that could be a legitimate CFP dark horse in the SEC is the Arkansas Razorbacks, I don't see one team on the schedule where there's no chance Arkansas wins. Do I think it will happen, no, mainly due to the schedule being so loaded but I like their coaches and they have talent.
Lucky to win 6? People said we’d be lucky to win 3-4 last year, be very surprised if that was the case.
For a spring game, Rattler looked good, and is surrounded by solid skill players at each position: RB: Lloyd, Beal-Smith from WF and Juju WR: Vann, Wells Jr., and plenty more who have experience and ready to step up Wide Back: Bell TE: Stogner and Kenion Team has much more talent than people realize, we won 7 games with 4 different QB’s last season and none that started more than 4 games. Schedule is tougher this year but 7-9 wins is very doable.
I have three concerns regarding this coming season: 1) Pass protection from O-line 2) Rush defense 3) Depth at DE and DB I think we are good/fine in every other area on this team, obviously the schedule is tough, we may have the hardest 3-game in start in the conference in regards to scheduling. This is a 7-8 win team who could win 9 games if the ball and luck bounces more in our favor. I do think we’ll be more competitive
