Hugo Sánchez criticised Louis van Gaal over his barbaric handling of Chicharito Hernández, who left Manchester United for Bayer Leverkusen on Monday.

The club legend condemned the Dutch coach for the furious glance that he fired at Ryan Giggs after Chicharito slipped and hit a penalty wide during his final match in Manchester United colours. "Van Gaal has made a bad decision and it isn't the only one; he's done it 50,000 times. I was a coach and a coach can't behave like that against his own player. I would come out, praise him and tell him I have faith in him, but for him to fire that look at Giggs... He's a wretch".

"Chicharito can have a bad day at the office just like any other player in the world, but Van Gaal is a wretch and I hope this reverberates around England and people realise that he's a bad person because of the way he treats his players. He has to be professional. You have to treat players like human beings", concluded Hugo Sánchez.
