Louis Van Gaal and United fans needn't worry too much.
Louis van Gaal has taken over the reins at Old Trafford in a scene awash with revolution. And immediately, the Dutchman has spent a record figure for Manchester United, and any English club for that matter, dishing out £150 million in a spree that landed Angel di Maria, Radamel Falcao, Luke Shaw and Daley Blind.

After the 2-1 defeat and following draw at the Stadium of Light, United fans began to grow restless with the lack of premium signings. And it wasn't surprising since 56 long days transpired from Luke Shaws switch from Southampton until Ed Woodwards hand was forced in a £16m signing for Argentine defender Marcos Rojo.

Things were looking up. The poor start to the season isnt anything new for the Old Trafford faithful to contend with, though. There have been plenty of instances where United have endured winless starts before achieving the best successes in the clubs history. So there's no reason to fear...
