"Manchester United" coach Louis van Gaal said at a press conference before Sunday's match that his team is not used to being champions, and in his opinion, David de Gea has never won a title.
Before the match against "Leicester City", where the opponents could secure the championship title, the Dutchman claimed that De Gea has never won a championship title, despite winning the Premier League with the same United team in the 2012-2013 season. The coach also downplayed the achievements of Wayne Rooney and Michael Carrick, who have won the championship title five times.
"The players we have now are not used to being champions. I don't think Matteo Darmian is used to being a champion, and David de Gea has never been a champion. Last year, Memphis Depay won a title with PSV, but there are not many players like that. Rooney, Carrick - they have been champions once, maybe more than once," Van Gaal said.
The match between "Manchester United" and "Leicester City" teams will take place on Sunday at 16:05.
