Blame me not players Van Gaal tells Manchester United fans
“I certainly learnt a lot in the year that I spent with him as coach, things that I will take with me on in my career”. However, he claims that a similar show of frustration when United take on West Bromwich Albion at Old Trafford today could make life more hard for the team.
Despite boasting an impressive CV, Van Gaal has encountered opposition from supporters throughout his 24-year management career.
“It’s very hard to play for Manchester United with a lot of pressure and you can taste that in Old Trafford because of all the yelling, then it’s not good for my players”, Van Gaal added. “I’m not deaf. That’s the opinion of the fans but afterwards they shall not be disappointed”, said the Dutch manager.
“Doumbia, that was the only attack of CSKA Moscow (when) a player of Manchester United stepped in on the wrong way”, said Van Gaal, whose side now lead PSV Eindhoven and Wolfsburg by a point.
It’s better to whistle at the manager. Criticism by the fans is never unfair.
It was only with 11 minutes left on the clock that the tension eased when Wayne Rooney scored the victor.
With no other natural striker in form at the moment or featuring often, Martial will be trusted by van Gaal to get his name back on the score sheet.
“But we have to score more goals”.
Luke Shaw (broken leg) and Paddy McNair are both out of the game this weekend, while Antonio Valencia is also out through injury after missing United’s last three games.
Pulis said: “We’ve had no feedback whatsoever about what the referee feels or thinks”.
“Maybe the people outside see only in the pitch, but he is also very very important outside for everyone”. “It’s the same as what happened in the previous worldwide breaks”.
“It has happened to us twice now, against Swansea and Arsenal”. I’m sorry to say that, but it’s logical also.
“I think we are improving every day and you can see that in the results we have made”.
Having allowed Angel Di Maria to depart for Paris Saint-Germain before the start of the season and losing out to Chelsea in a pursuit of Pedro, Van Gaal previously admitted that United are lacking quality out wide.
“Wazza will go in the history books as one of the best players to have ever played for Manchester United and England”.
Manchester United moved to the top of Champions League Group B thanks to a late Wayne Rooney header.
