Van Gaal insists winning FA Cup Man Utd priority

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal says they're in the FA Cup to win it after victory at Yeovil Town.

Van Gaal was humbled when United lost 4-0 to MK Dons, another League One outfit, in the Capital One Cup in August but there was to be no slip-up in Somerset after Yeovil striker Kieffer Moore had passed up an inviting second-half scoring opportunity with the game goalless.

"I want to win a title and the players also," Van Gaal said. "I have been told by my fantastic assistant manager (Ryan Giggs) that Man United for 10 years have not won the FA Cup, so maybe we can do that this year.

"But it's a very long way and the priority is also the Premier League."
