Frustrated boss Van Gaal blasted the sloppy defending that led to Bournemouth's victory, insisting United must heed a "strong lesson'' from Dean Court defeat.

"I think that we have the selection to do that (win the league), but we are now in a very difficult position,'' said Van Gaal.

"We have to make a revival this week, and that's always very difficult because you have lost two in a row, and that doesn't happen often for Manchester United.

"Two set plays, two goals: you cannot accept that as a manager, a player, a team, because we pay a lot of attention to it."
