Louis van Gaal slammed by former Man Utd defender
LOUIS VAN GAAL is 'hindering' Manchester United's high-quality players, claims former defender Danny Higginbotham.
Louis van Gaal has been accused of 'hindering' Manchester United's players
The Red Devils were humiliated at home on Saturday by Norwich, with their third successive defeat dropping them out of the top four.
And Higginbotham believes Louis van Gaal is entirely to blame for United's current plight, accusing the Dutchman of suffocating the players with poor tactics.
“They’re not being able to give everything that they want to give because they’re having to play a certain style but it’s to the detriment of themselves.”
Van Gaal's tenure has come under scrutiny in recent days following Chelsea's sacking of Jose Mourinho with reports suggesting the Portuguese is set to take over at Old Trafford.
