Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is fed-up with criticism from former players. Old Trafford legend Gary Neville believes United are "too slow" and "predictable" when they play three centre-backs.
And former striker Michael Owen claimed Van Gaal's men were not functioning properly as a team in the 3-5-2 formation.
But Van Gaal has dismissed the criticism from the United old boys.
He said: "The discussion about the system is coming so it is ridiculous.
"I have to communicate with my players and observe my players and analyse my players and my team and my opponent and the quality of my opponent and then I have to make a decision with my staff.
"But I cannot hear or listen to what the media are writing or what other people are saying or writing.
"They are never at the training ground and not attending the meetings.
"My staff is attending the meetings and my players so I have to work with them and a board that believes in the manager and these players."
