Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is wary of facing Southampton striker Graziano Pelle tomorrow night.
Pelle will be looking to end his five-game barren run after hitting nine goals following his £8million arrival from Feyenoord.
And the Italian striker is a player that Van Gaal knows well having coached him at AZ Alkmaar.
Van Gaal said: "I am not surprised by Pelle because I bought him at AZ.
"I like strikers who can score goals and also create and, in that way, Pelle is like Robin van Persie.
"It may be surprising that Pelle has scored nine goals - that is a lot - but he can do it. I knew that."
