Britain's biggest club Manchester United missed out on the top four
this season and entry into next season's Champions League, but Louis
Van Gaal now says winning the FA Cup would be a bigger achievement.
Van
Gaal despite having an underwhelming season, with his job constantly
linked to Jose Mourinho has a chance to win the F.A cup on Saturday, as Man U tackle sCrystal palace in Wembley.
“I
think the interest of the club is much more important and the interest
of the fans is more important than those of the manager,” said Van Gaal
during his pre-match press conference according to Manutd.com.
“Of
course, you have your own aims and that's one of the aims I have had
always, so it's always exciting when you are so close, but close is not
enough – you have to win it. A club like Manchester United needs
silverware.
“I have read that the last FA Cup
was 2004 so it's a long time ago, so also for Manchester United it's a
big title I think, especially as it was a long time ago.
“We are very close, but still you have nothing when you don't win. So it's always a final you cannot predict.”
“I
think it is always important,” said Van Gaal. “When you win silverware,
it's important for the players, because a qualification is not a title.
“A
title is the FA Cup or championship, because they can look and hold the
trophy, so that's an exciting moment also. We are playing in the most
prestigious temple in England, so everything has confirmed how important
this trophy is.
“It is a while since we won
anything, so it's very good if we win something. We have played four
matches of the six away, so I think we deserve something also, I think.”
