LVG: Solskjaer just like Jose!

LOUIS VAN GAAL has dismissed the notion that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has turned Manchester United back into an attacking force, accusing him of ‘parking the bus’ just as much as Jose Mourinho. United have scored 40 goals in 19 games with the Norwegian as caretaker, but former Old Trafford boss Van Gaal does not believe Solskjaer is emulating Sir Alex Ferguson’s teams. ‘The coach after me (Mourinho) changed to park-the-bus tactics and played on the counter,’ said the Dutchman. ‘Now there is another coach who parks the bus and plays on the counter. ‘The main difference between Mourinho and Solskjaer is that Solskjaer is winning. ‘But the way Manchester United are playing now is not the way Ferguson played. It is defensive, counter-attacking football. If you think it is more exciting than my boring attacking, OK. But it is not my truth.’
