Van Der Saar expects Manchester United to do a Liverpool next season under Louis Van Gaal

Has his say

Former Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin Van Der Saar expects Manchester United to win the league under Louis Van Gaal, just like Liverpool almost did it this season. And believes United have more qualities than Liverpool.

Edwin Van Der Saar says, “Van Gaal will spend the right money on the right player to ensure that they are right for United.

“He will know if they have the United DNA of the club inside of them. If not he will let them go and let them go to other clubs. You have to play and you have to fight for Manchester United. Not only come for the money.

“What’s more important? £20k or £30k more a week or the privilege of playing for a coach like Van Gaal?

“It's a massive club and if you are able to participate in that and to contribute to winning a title then you are settled for life because you have the adoration of the club.”

“It will be difficult to get from seventh to first, but Liverpool almost did it and I think United have more qualities than ­Liverpool on that score.

Edwin Van Der Saar played 6 seasons with Manchester United and has won 4 premier league titles, 1 Champions League, 1 FIFA Club World Cup, 3 Community Shield and 2 League Cups, during his time at Manchester United.
