Herbert Hainer the chief
executive of Adidas says Manchester United's playing style is not exactly what we want to see.
Adidas last season signed a world-record £750m, 10-year deal to manufacture
Manchester United's kit and while business has exceeded the firm's
expectations, chief executive Hainer admitted he has been less pleased with the
team's on-pitch performances. He said “This
success confirms again that Manchester United is not just a football club. With
more than 650 million fans globally it is one of the world's most supported
sports clubs. This special club has not only a rich history but also a
reputation for success. Business with Manchester United is going very well, we
have sold more shirts than expected. We are satisfied, even if the current
playing style is not exactly what we want to see”.
Louis van Gaal has been criticized
throughout the current campaign for his perceived defensive tactics at Old
Trafford, with former player Paul
Scholes saying he would not wish to play under the manager and suggesting
the team had no risk or creativity. Prior to last Saturday's 2-1 win over
Swansea City, United had gone eight games without a victory - in which they
only scored five goals - a sequence which ensured the worst December in the
club's history.
