Louis van Gaal almost breaks into song during press conference

Man United weren't quite on song today...

The warm summer air has a way of getting us to do surprising things.

Whether it was relief at a narrow 1-0 win over Tottenham, joy at turning 64 or a combination of the two, Louis van Gaal was in a playful mood after Manchester United’s opener.

He began breaking into a Beatles classic before seemingly thinking better of it.

The Dutchman is not normally known for his indecision, as has been shown in his dealings with David De Gea, but he seemed unsure of himself for once.

Perhaps he was wary of asking “will you still need me?” within earshot of his Manchester United paymasters.

Surely a slap-up dinner at Wings will see him lose his inhibitions and launch into a bit of birthday karaoke.
