We were attacking. We were not defending and we were looking for tactical solutions adapted to the level of our players. For example we were provoking space and that was new in England. I think six months ago [J\u00fcrgen] Klopp has also seen the light because in former days he was always pressing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have tried because of the speed of [Anthony] Martial and [Marcus] Rashford to provoke space by not pressing immediately but to come a little back, not parking the bus, but to the middle line and then the defenders halfway in our own half.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Only with AZ did I do that before, also because of the lower level of my players, and of course I adapt to the quality of my players.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1092026\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/features\/most-expensive-defenders-all-time\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1092026\" class=\"wp-image-1092026 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"The most expensive defenders in football history\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1-66x37.jpg 66w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1-620x350.jpg 620w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1-940x530.jpg 940w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/06\/03184232\/VVD-Expensive-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1092026\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/features\/most-expensive-defenders-all-time\">The most expensive defenders in football history, and whether they were worth the transfer fees<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;You have to see it. Because I didn\u2019t have the best quality of players, they could not perform the system to attack. For example, when Liverpool have to attack constantly, they have a problem, more a problem than, for example, Manchester City.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pressed on why, Van Gaal added: &#8220;Because [Mohamed] Salah, [Roberto] Firmino and [Sadio] Man\u00e9 need a bigger space than [Sergio] Ag\u00fcero, [Leroy] San\u00e9 and [Raheem] Sterling and also the creativity in City\u2019s midfield is higher with [Kevin] De Bruyne, David Silva, Fernandinho and Bernardo Silva \u2013 they can play in a small space. That\u2019s why City are the champions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Short, but not so sweet<\/h2>\n<p>Van Gaal took charge of 103 matches during his spell as Manchester United manager.<\/p>\n<p>He registered 54 victories, giving him a 52% win rate, but lost a total of 25 times.
