| Louis van Gaal pleased by improved performance against Aston Villa |
LOUIS VAN GAAL believes tonight's1-0 win at Aston Villa was an improvement over last weekend's victory over Tottenham, but admits it will take time for Manchester United to hit top form.
United managed only one shot on target in beating Spurs 1-0 in the opening game of the new Premier League season.
And, even though they managed to hit the target only twice at Villa Park, Van Gaal was impressed with the improvement in their performance.
"I think we have played better than last week and it was an away match so I'm very happy," the Dutchman said.
"I think in the first 20 minutes we kept the ball better and we scored a wonderful goal from a fantastic pass from Mata."
He added: "The start to the season is better than last year but that is not so difficult. We had one point at this stage and now we have six, so I am very happy.
"There is still a long way to go. You cannot expect it with only four weeks preparation. You need more matches to come in the form I think we can show."
