Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal said he wants his team's expectations to be lowered, Sky Sports reports.
"I think the fans of Manchester are intelligent. I've already said that it shall be difficult in the first three months, for the players and also for the fans. I've said it to Ed Woodward and the Glazers that this is what it is," van Gaal said, according to the site.
"They have hired me for my philosophy, not because I'm a nice guy. I am a nice guy but that's not why I was brought here."
