Van Gaal has slammed Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for being too passive against Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

The two clubs played out out a dire 0-0 draw at Old Trafford earlier this month.

“All Man United did was defend with ten men,”Van Gaal said. “Everyone knows my relationship with Pep Guardiola, who is angry with me because I challenged him in my last book.

“But I enjoyed watching City more than United. I have far more sympathy for City than for United.

“Honestly, United were just defending and hoping they can do a quick hit on the counter.

“United just defend and put a couple of players up front who can run 100 metres in 9 seconds. Is that a world record?

“In the derby, United played as if they were City’s servants.”
