news.yahoo.com

Former Manchester United player Rafael da Silva has shared that his career at the club ended due to coach Louis van Gaal's negative attitude. Rafael, who joined United in 2008, played 170 games before leaving in 2015. Rafael stated that Van Gaal told him directly, "I don't like you," shortly after becoming manager. This led to Rafael playing only 17 times in the 2014 season before moving to Lyon. Rafael's transfer to Lyon was influenced by a strong performance in a reserve match, which caught the attention of a scout. He reflected on how small events can significantly change a player's career path.
