LOUIS VAN GAAL is ready to ditch about £100million worth of players after spending three weeks casting a critical eye over Manchester United's squad.
Van Gaal has been using United's pre-season tour here not only to prepare his players for the new season but to decide who fits into his plans and who doesn't.
Nani, Shinji Kagawa, Javier Hernandez and Wilfried Zaha all look likely to be victims of Van Gaal's cull, along with Marouane Fellaini and Anderson, who were not included in the tour squad.
Van Gaal has given all 26 of the players plenty of game-time in United's five tour matches.
But it has not just been the player's performances in games that have come under his scrutiny but also their responses to his demanding training routines, which have either exposed weaknesses in technique, a failure to grasp what he is looking for or they simply do not fit into the 3-4-1-2 system he wants to play this season.
Van Gaal has left everyone guessing who might fall under his axe because he wants to tell the players face-to-face once they have returned to Manchester from their tour tomorrow (Wed).
That leaves United three weeks before the end of the transfer window to move players on and bring in targets like Arsenal's Thomas Vermaelen and Ajax wing back Daley Blind.
