“I am not sitting down giving targets to anybody. We want to strive to win. That is what we want to do. That expectation comes with the history of the club. You have to accept that. I have to accept that.
“Everyone has to accept that. Everyone has to have that benchmark for Manchester United. That is what all the fans want. That is what our history demands. We want to win.
On the club having given an open cheque book to LVG he said: "There is no budget, there is money. We are in a very strong financial position. We can make big signings. That doesn’t mean we are going to throw money around.

He also spoke about the revamping of the line-up as several key players left the club while there are only some mediocre understudies for them. He said:
“We are still assessing things and looking at options. We are not sitting on our hands and waiting for Louis. He is indicating clearly what he wants.
"All I am saying is there could be some other things that happen as a result of the time he spends with the players in the next few weeks. If you think about it, for an experienced professional like him from a football perspective, maybe he knows the first 15 players really well but the next 15 not so well. He is taking time to see," conluded the Manchester United boss’ boss.
