Smalling shatters Manchester United's derby dreams

Manchester United slipped to their fourth consecutive derby defeat on Sunday after losing 1-0 to champions City at the Etihad Stadium.

Defender Chris Smalling was the villain for the visitors, after being sent off in the first half after picking up a second yellow card, a booking manager Louis van Gaal later branded as "stupid".

With an extra man, City went on to win the game with Sergio Aguero, scoring the only goal on 63 minutes to close the gap on leaders Chelsea and move seven points ahead of their city rivals.

Van Gaal desperately seeking Manchester United balance

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal admits he is still trying to strike the right balance between his horde of creative talents and a more solid back-line.

The Red Devils claimed a last-gasp draw away to West Brom on Monday night, and while the Dutch coach was happy with his side’s performance he was dismayed that they failed to win the game.

But while he is ready to add more physicality and strength to his line-up, he is not going to sacrifice his team’s flair – even with a clash with Chelsea on the horizon.

We have to look for physical balance and maybe that is our problem,” Van Gaal told reporters. “I am always looking for creative players and in England you need physical players as well, maybe [Marouane] Fellaini brings that.”
