Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal played down the frustration expressed by his club's supporters during the team's 2-0 Premier League victory at Queens Park Rangers on Saturday.
Van Gaal heard the first sounds of revolt from United's fans toward the end of a dismal first half at Loftus Road when they voiced their unhappiness with his favored 3-5-2 formation by chanting: "4-4-2!"
Van Gaal introduced Marouane Fellaini at halftime before adjusting his formation and the moves paid dividends, with Fellaini putting United ahead before fellow substitute James Wilson added a late second.
