Louis van Gaal has revealed who he has the 'most problems' with at Manchester United - and it's not Jose Mourinho.

The ex-Red Devils boss stuck the boot into his former colleague recently, labeling United's current style of play under Mourinho as boring.

The Dutchman was in charge at Old Trafford for two seasons before he was sacked and replaced by the Portuguese.

Van Gaal led United to a top four finish in his first season and FA Cup glory in his second, but failure to secure a Champions League spot in his second year ultimately led to his dismissal.

"I would rather watch City play than United," said Van Gaal. "You need quality in a squad and it's clear City have a better squad.

"We played football that was quite alright. But it's not football that is appreciated in England.

"And yet, right now, looking at United, I have to conclude Mourinho is not being criticized while it's far more boring football."

But the 66-year-old revealed there's someone else at United who he has more of problem with.

"I have more problems with the CEO, Ed Woodward. He never discussed anything with me - and you can talk about anything with me," van Gaal added.

"With all my experience, I know the unwritten laws of football. A club has to prepare for the future. I can understand that and they should have approached me. Ed could talk to me but he did not.

"My wife [Truus] had to find out when she was in the lift with Woodward’s family. They said something like, ‘This is going to be awkward for Ed’. My wife had sussed them out ages ago. She warned me that something was going on."
