Louis van Gaal: Man Utd fans are right to boo me

Louis van Gaal has said Manchester United fans are right to boo him, after his side lost 1-0 to Southampton at Old Trafford.

United failed to score a first-half goal at Old Trafford for the 11th game in a row before Charlie Austin broke the deadlock on 87 minutes.

United are fifth in the league, five points behind Tottenham in fourth and 10 behind leaders Leicester.

"They are right to boo, I can not deny that, I saw the match " said Van Gaal.

"For better or for worse we have to stick together," added Van Gaal after his side's six league defeat of the season.

United have taken 37 points from their first 23 games, their lowest total in the Premier League era and three points fewer than under David Moyes during the 2013/14 season.

Van Gaal added: "We are working very hard, but we have had a lot of injuries. That you cannot change, you cannot not change it with words."
