Van Gaal: Man Utd satisfied with fourth place

Louis van Gaal suggests everybody at Manchester United is content with a fourth-placed finish.

The Red Devils drew 1-1 with Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday which is likely to see them remain in fourth position as they have just one fixture remaining.

After some shaky moments earlier in the campaign, van Gaal's United have responded well in the second of the season and the Dutchman admits their result is one that has the board, supporters, coaching staff and players pleased.

"We have set our goal. My board is satisfied, the fans are satisfied," he said.

"It is amazing when you are fourth and the fans are clapping for so long. I had never that experience at my other clubs."
