Balance needed: Louis Van Gaal dissatisfied with balance in the squad despite LA Galaxy thumping

Louis Van Gaal says the squad he has inherited from David Moyes lacks balance.

Van Gaal's United team beat LA Galaxy 7-0 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on Thursday morning playing a 3-4-3 system alien to most fans of the English club.

After the game the former Holland coach confirmed he will use that system in the Premier League in order to get an extra centre forward on the field.

Van Gaal said: '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
