Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has given his squad the day off on Valentine's Day

Manchester United suffered a miserable start to their weekend with defeat at Sunderland damaging their hopes of making the top four.

Despite a lacklustre show at the Stadium of Light, their Dutch boss seemed to want to spread the love in honour of the players' wives.

Van Gaal and striker Wayne Rooney admitted it had been a "sad day" for United. Perhaps a day with their minds away from the training pitch might put the smile back on their faces.
