Manchester United football team manager Louis van Gaal has admitted that his squad is struggling to understand his ideas, in light of the club's worst Premier League start.

United head into Saturday's match against West Ham United after collecting just five points from five matches.

Van Gaal said that they give the players a lot of information, and added that there shall be a moment in the season that this information is not too much, as at this moment maybe it is too much, The BBC reported.

Since taking charge on 16 July, the Dutchman has experimented with different formations and made several alterations at the club's training ground in an attempt to implement his philosophy.

The former Ajax, Barcelona and Bayern Munich coach is adamant that United would benefit but has conceded that he might have pushed his players too far, too soon.

Van Gaal, who acknowledged that fans are already very tired of hearing his pleas for patience, said that one has to work out that information. He added that it is very difficult because they are starting with a new team and a new relationship between players so that's why it needs time.
