Louis van Gaal feels the Manchester United fans should be happy with back-to-back wins despite Saturday’s poor FA Cup display.

“What do I do now?”
That brought sarcastic cheers from home fans and Van Gaal said: “They can criticise, but they can also cheer the players”.
However, van Gaal is entitled to argue that results have improved since David Moyes’ brief spell at the club, and thus question why he would want to change a formula that has served the side quite well, regardless of how it looks.
When asked if he could understand that particular viewpoint, Van Gaal conceded that he had also been left frustrated by his side’s failure to breakdown the opposition.
“There are many reasons to leave a stadium before the last minute”.
Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has countered the criticism on his “boring” team, saying he’s sometimes bored and angry too, according to Sky Sports. Do you know that my primary concern is defence?
“They have been ironic (against Sheffield United) but that’s an expression of the fans and that’s good”.
Old Trafford was barely two-thirds full by the time Rooney slotted in his spot-kick, many fans having decided they had seen enough.
“Mata has played all the games, I think there was only one he didn’t play, so he needed a rest”, he said.
Van Gaal also has “enjoyed some matches as well, especially against Chelsea”.
Saivet said: “I am very happy to be here at Newcastle”.
“We have ups and downs, but now we’ve won twice in a row and maybe it’ll give us a boost”.
Van Gaal refused to respond to the outspoken United legend on the eve of his team’s trip to Newcastle.
“Ok, I saw their game against Arsenal and they played very well”.
“But in a match you need two teams to play”.
“I believe in communication during the week, during the preparation and I believe in my players who have to perform”.
“Bastian Schweinsteiger is injured, that we know”.
“I see square pegs in round holes with players in the team”.

“Paul Scholes has been outspoken about his old side and I can’t disagree”, Wright wrote in his Sun Sport column.
