Van Gaal may have been responsible for more than £250m of spending since he took over at United, but he admitted he still does not know whether his squad is capable of being a major force in Europe.

“We have to show on the pitch if we are able to win matches on the highest level,” the United manager said.

“That’s also a challenge for us now. Last year we were fourth in the Premier League.

“We qualified ourselves this year and that was our aim so now we have to show if we are able to play at that level and that I don’t know, either. I have to wait and see.

“I think the Champions League is a higher podium than the Premier League but maybe it’s not like that.”Van Gaal said, speaking at a press conference before to the Group B match at the Philips Stadion.
