I'll make Man Utd great again! Louis Van Gaal issues blueprint for success at Old Trafford

LOUIS VAN GAAL has vowed to make Manchester United a force again.

  

The Holland boss will be confirmed as the new United manager this week on a £7m-a-season deal at Old Trafford.

The deposed champions will announce his appointment with Van Gaal currently leading the Dutch squad in a training camp in his homeland to prepare for the World Cup in Brazil.

He will start work with the United squad for the first time when the club embark on their pre-season tour of America in July.
But the former Ajax, Bayern Munich and Barcelona boss is convinced his new players will buy into his coaching philosophies and has vowed to let them express themselves.
Van Gaal reckons that is what sets him apart from other coaches and said: "I think it's my philosophy because it binds players with my training.
"In my career, I have had a lot of players who are fascinated by that philosophy. They find it nice to take part in it because it's attacking, technical and tactical.
"They can show their qualities more than ever. You have to play as a team and not as individuals.
"That's why I'm always going back to the vision, then the team, and then which players fit in my system, a 4-3-3, because I'm always playing that.

"If a young player can do it, then I select him. If it's an older player, it doesn't bother me. It's not the most important factor. Age is not important."
Van Gaal confirmed that he intends to make Ryan Giggs his No.2 at United.
He was expected to bring Patrick Kluivert to Manchester as his assistant, but as Starsport exclusively revealed last week, Van Gaal has had a change of heart and will offer Giggs the role instead.
Van Gaal admits he likes to keep an existing member of the coaching staff with him when he starts work at a new club.
He realises Giggs will have a huge role to play in helping him rebuild the team and will provide a crucial link between himself and the dressing room.
