How United players turned on Van Gaal after humiliation at Spurs

 

Manchester United players reportedly turned on manager Louis van Gaal, after they were hammered 3-0 by Tottenham Hotspurs on Sunday.
Some of the players allegedly labelled the Dutchman ‘clueless’ for his tactical changes, especially how he subbed off 18-year-old Marcus Rashford.
The young striker was taken off at the break for winger Ashley Young who played through the middle, while Anthony Martial stayed wide.

A source told The UK Sun: “They blamed it all on the manager. You could hear everything. They don’t seem to have much time for him.”
After the defeat at White Hart Lane, Van Gaal blamed his defence for the six-minute collapse in the second half, that saw Spurs score all three of their goals.

“The miscommunication in our centre defence turned the match, I think,” he said.
“And the second goal was also a goal in a set-play.

“Alderweireld scored and we knew in advance he is a dangerous header, so everything was well organised but he had a wonderful header, and within five minutes they scored the third goal and the game’s over.”
