'Valdes is not selected [for the tour] because he doesn't follow my philosophy. The philosophy is how you play football and how you maintain your match rhythm,' said Van Gaal.
'He refused last year to play in the second team. There are a lot of other aspects in the philosophy how you have to play like a goalkeeper at Manchester United. When you are not willing [to apply] the principles of that philosophy there is only one way, and that is out.
'For us this is a big disappointment. We thought he would follow our philosophy. It's a pity because we have given the opportunity to rehabilitate. Then we gave a contract. Then of course he is fit to play. When you're not playing in the first selection, you have to play in the second selection.'

I would have thought he would be Valdes replacement. Has the Loris injury hampered MU or is it Levy ?
other reports are of De Gea being told to see out his contract if Man Utd play hardball. asking silly money for someone in his last year but then you don't always give in from the get go. the process and strategy will come back to haunt them if they take too long peeing around. AS are reporting RM are asking €90m for Ramos, MU have offered €45m
link De Gea no longer involved in the deal.
