Intro:

Manchester United manager says the transfer rumours linking goalkeeper David De Gea with a move to Real Madrid are 'not favourable'. The Dutchman remains tight-lipped about winger Angel di Maria's reported move to Paris Saint-Germain and suggests tiredness was a factor in their 2-0 friendly defeat by PSG in Chicago, America.

SOUNDBITE (English): Louis van Gaal, Manchester United manager, on David De Gea's performance:

"Poor? I can not say poor, but he made a mistake. That's not poor, everybody can make mistakes, but when a goalkeeper makes a mistake then it is mostly a goal, and that's the difference. But yes, we have a situation that is not favourable for David De Gea, but neither for us and neither for the club maybe he wants to go (to)."

SOUNDBITE (English): Louis van Gaal, Manchester United manager, on the status of the Angel Di Maria transfer:

"... I'm not the same manager as Laurent Blanc. I don't want to answer these questions..."

SOUNDBITE (English): Louis van Gaal, Manchester United manager:

"I hope that we shall be able in competition, in the Premier League, to finish from out of our first chances, because that is very important. As you have seen in the match against Barcelona, when Barcelona is not finishing out of their chances, they have conceded against us, then we score and then it is for Barcelona a very difficult game. And that was this game the same - we had the first chances and then we make the error. That's one (thing) that we have to improve... two weeks and a few days with this hot weather was not predicted, so it was very heavy this training camp and I think also that we have seen it (in) this match also. They were less fresh as against Barcelona..."
