I have gone from 'king of Manchester' to 'devil': Van Gaal (Reuters)

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has poured scorn on critics who he says have made a "devil" of him after one defeat in his new job. United's 2-1 home defeat by Swansea City was the shock result on the opening weekend of the new Premier League season. They face a tricky game at Sunderland on Sunday and Van Gaal is appealing for patience. "Two weeks ago I was the king of Manchester and now I am the devil of Manchester," he told a news conference on Friday.
