Man Utd boss Van Gaal snaps back at Ferdinand, Scholes criticism

When Van Gaal was asked about the comments the former players made, he hit back.

The United boss said: "Is it important what Rio Ferdinand is saying, is that important to you?

"You don't give your opinion and then you give Rio Ferdinand's opinion - that is very strong of you. Of course Liverpool were the better team in the first half but in second half we did a better match than before that.

"We did not cope with the high pressure of Liverpool.

"We had expected that and for me it was a surprise we did not cope with it because they did it at their home match this year.

"That raised the atmosphere in the stadium and they created big chances but we had a very good goalkeeper and because of that we were in the match.

"I don't think we were very creative in the third and fourth phase but it is also the defence of Liverpool and you can give credit for that to Liverpool.

"We have to improve a lot to create more goals."
