Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is delighted with the attitude of the current squad.

Van Gaal heaped praise on his players when comparing them with his Holland World Cup squad last summer.

The Dutchman was asked if the Oranje squad was the best he'd worked with.

"No," was his reply. "I am with the Oranje, but we did not become champions, so I cannot say that. But it was the best group I've ever worked (in terms of attitude).

"However, now I am at Manchester and I also have a group that wants to make the most of themselves. That's also very beautiful. "
