Manchester United v Arsenal - Premier League Preview
Van Gaal took over at Old Trafford in the summer as the replacement for David Moyes, who was sacked after just 10 months in charge.
The Dutchman is on course to achieve his pre-season target of returning the Red Devils to the Champions League and could even leapfrog Arsenal into third with a win on Sunday.
And Wenger believes Van Gaal has shown he has the personality to succeed at United.

Arsene Wenger
“He is a top quality manager,” Wenger said of Van Gaal.
“He first had to learn to know his squad and then of course to restore belief in the team. To me he has done that well.
“He has shown he has the personality to be at a club of that size which is very important. Overall he is in a good way.”
