In fairness to Van Gaal, United have had more possession than any other team in the Premiership, and statistically have the best defence ATM.
I have been to every game at OT this season and with the exception of Club Brugge and Liverpool every other team set out their stall to take a single point with anything else as a bonus. Even Man City were playing for a draw after 20 minutes but in mitigation they didn't have Silva and Ageuro to call on.
And the score against the only two teams who did try to attack United, both lost 3-1.
The last two games against CSKA and West Brom were possibly the most defensive with 9 or 10 behind the ball for most of the game.
Only this week Rafa was hailed as a tactical genius because Real Madrid hung on to an undeserved 1-0 win at their own ground against PSG.
I have seen United play better but I for one am not calling for Van Gaal to go, he has applied the brakes from the Moyes era and is slowly turning the ship around.
