Van Gaal’s Devils paint the town red

Louis van Gaal and his Manchester United players celebrated their return to the Champions League with a night out on Sunday.

Van Gaal’s side finished fourth, securing a playoff place in next season's premier European competition, and the team headed straight to Manchester city centre after their 0- 0 draw with Hull City.

Following the full- time whistle at the KC Stadium, United's players made the 100- mile trip from Hull back to Manchester, arriving on their coach at TATTU bar and restaurant in the Spinningfields area of the city.

Van Gaal and assistant boss Ryan Giggs were among the attendees as United celebrated their season before the players moved on to Panacea nightclub later in the evening.

United boss Van Gaal left at around 11.30pm while Wayne Rooney and his team headed to a club to continue the festivities.

Marouane Fellaini was perhaps the most outlandishly- dressed star, arriving in turquoise trousers, blue jumper and black shoes.

Captain Rooney also had a slight issue with his jeans upon leaving the restaurant and his top button was undone.
