Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal plans to play a 3-4-3 system this season.
After their 7-0 win over LA Galaxy, Van Gaal has revealed he will adopt the three-man central defence he used with Holland in the World Cup over the course of the Barclays Premier League season with Manchester United.
"We introduced a new system that we have only played two times on the training pitch 11 v 11.
"But the boys are willing to pick up the information.
"It is fantastic how they have performed today.
"Last week, 10 players who played tonight were not even in our training complex.
"When you want to change a system, you must start at once. We don't have time to prepare for other things.
"The other system they can play is 4-3-3 and they have played it for many years.
"I can change back if the system doesn't work. With the quality of the players we have, I can play 4-3-3 with three strikers on the bench, but I want to play with two strikers.
"We have four No 10s, so the selection is not balanced in my eyes.
"I have decided to play this system because of the quality of the players.
"But if we lose, I can change back to another system."
