Louis van Gaal has rather abruptly responded to a journalist pressing him on Manchester United’s failed transfer bid for Pedro, telling the reporter: “You are a little bit deaf.”
The Man U manager’s retort came after a journalist asked him whether Pedro’s decision to instead move to Chelsea was his or United’s decision, which seemingly upset the Dutchman.

Prior to his comment, Van Gaal had been asked to reveal more about the Pedro deal half a dozen times, and this was seemingly evidence of the manager finally coming to his wit’s end.
Pedro moved from Barcelona to Chelsea in a £12 million deal, after United had also made a bid for the forward. It is believed that Man U pulled out of the deal before he made the transfer to the London outfit.
