Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has admitted that he wasn't surprised by his side's victory over Liverpool last week.

The Red Devils won for the sixth time in a row in the Premier League with their 3-0 win over Brendan Rodgers's men, but Van Gaal is adamant that there is more to come from his team this season.

He told reporters: "I don't think that one game had a big influence until now because, okay, the results are very good, but we can improve the performances as a team.

"I am always speaking about the team. And I think that the team can improve its self still more and I don't think that it was a great surprise that we won against Liverpool neither for the players."

United are third in the table going into their match against Aston Villa later today.
