I followed them closely enough to have drawn those very conclusions, their personalities come through on field and technical area. My favorite Van Gaal moment was his high kick impersonation on the sideline, not bad for an old man in a suit! I still have it on VHS somewhere. Favorite Litmanen moment, too many to mention! No one I've seen can shape their body as quicky and precisely to receive a ball or strike it on the volley, his control of himself and technique was impressive.
