Angel Di Maria's Paris Saint-Germain easily conquered Ligue 1 by early March and are still in contention in the UEFA Champions League, but the mercurial Argentinian still hasn't gotten over his forgettable year at Old Trafford.

He started under Louis van Gaal in a flurry but gradually fell out of favour with the Dutchman, and he was ultimately sold to the Parisian giants over the summer.

Di Maria has dazzled in Paris, and he owes much of it to being used properly, something he wasn't at Manchester United (his words).

He's still a bit salty towards Van Gaal, as per BBC Football Focus (h/t Who Ate All The Pies' Chris Wright):

It's not nice to say certain things but it's more that they didn't let me settle properly than I couldn't settle. I started a game in one position then the next game in another. I scored goals playing in one position, then suddenly the next game I was picked to play in a different position. I think this also didn't help me settle. It's up to the manager to decide where and how every player should play, but I think that the player should be comfortable in that position and adapt to it.

Then he really let fly at his former employer, citing Manchester United's middling season.

I left and the team are still playing the same way. Out of the European competitions, far from being champions of the Premier League. I don't think it was my fault or the fault of my teammates. Every time I was given the opportunity, I did all I could but it didn't work out as I hoped. So I decided to leave, not only to be happy but to win things.

Burn.
