Van Gaal sets Man Utd flops three-game challenge to stay in title race

The Red Devils lost to Wolfsburg and Bournemouth in the space of five days and the Dutch boss has called on his side to bounce back or risk forfeiting a place in the title race.

Louis van Gaal admits Manchester United needs to get back to winning ways fast or risk losing pace in the race for the Premier League title.

The Red Devils followed up their midweek Champions League disappointment with defeat to Bournemouth, and have now failed to win in their last five games in all competitions.

The Dutchman has urged his team to rally together ahead of a grueling winter fixture period, and has challenged his side to rack up three straight wins if it wants to keep its fading title hopes alive.
