Louis van Gaal launched his reign as Manchester
United manager in emphatic style with Wayne Rooney, Ashley Young and
youngster Reece James all scoring twice in a remarkable 7-0 victory against
LA Galaxy in California.
With Rooney starting up-front, summer signings Herrera and Shaw involved from
the beginning and Darren Fletcher wearing the captain's armband, Van Gaal
was clearly determined to start well with a strong line-up.
And by lining up with a 3-4-1-2 formation, the Dutchman also suggested a
readiness to impose a new system on a United team accustomed to playing four
at the back throughout the Sir Alex Ferguson era.
