Louis van Gaal accused his Man Utd players of being scared to play football before giving reporter Patrick Davison an icy glare

Louis van Gaal gave Sky Sports' Patrick Davison an icy glare in his post-match interview after Manchester United's defeat at Stoke.

Stoke blew Van Gaal's men away with a 2-0 victory, meaning United have lost four successive competitive matches within a single season for the first time in 54 years.

Van Gaal cut his pre-match press conference short on Wednesday, taking just three questions and asking for an apology as he accused the media of publishing false reports on his future.

And the Dutchman was asked about the incident after the Stoke defeat, and whether he was upset by questions about his job security. 

He stated: "I was not hurt. You don't understand my message. My message is that the media are saying and writing things that does not conform with what is happening in Manchester United. That was my message, not that I am hurt, because I am used to that.
