Louis van Gaal says Manchester United were not unlucky
Van Gaal saw Arsenal come from behind to salvage a draw at Old Trafford this afternoon, despite the home side dominating for much of the match.
And the Dutch manager says United need to learn to create their own luck by showing more tactical discipline.
This season we have only finished two games.

He said: "You can say we are unlucky because it is the third deflected goal in a row and falls in our net. But I have said it is not unlucky to the players.
"You have to force luck by finishing games. We are one hour better and 1-0 ahead. You see Arsenal want to come back so you have to stick together and be compact.
"I have said Arsenal have maybe the best team but Chelsea can finish the game, which Arsenal cannot do and we can't either. That is important. This season we have only finished two games. It is a pity."
