5 unforgettable moments from Louis van Gaal's career

#1 Drops pants in front of Bayern Munich squad to make a point

Louis van Gaal exposed a little more than his calves in the Bayern dressing room

After making a couple of substitutions that players were unhappy with, in the 55^th minute of a game early in the title winning season of 2009/10, LvG chose to establish his authority using any means necessary by dropping his pants in the dressing room.

The message, as Luca Toni and Mark van Bommel would later share, was that he had the ‘stones’ to drop or select anyone as he wished and he would do whatever he thought was best for the team.

Van Gaal would later confirm the incident himself, saying, “I wanted to make clear: When I make a substitution, I don’t do so for my own ego, but for the sake of the team. I do everything for the team and I use everything I can to illustrate that. My voice, my mind, and everything else I’ve got. This shows the strength of our team spirit.”
