Watch the moment Louis van Gaal says he wants his players to be more “horny” while speaking at a press conference ahead of tomorrow night’s Europa League clash with FC Midtjylland.

Presumably trying to express that he’d like his players to show more hunger and enthusiasm, LVG revealed his unusual terminology before turning to Juan Mata sitting beside him and sharing a knowing grin.

If van Gaal really wants his players to be more horny in time for the Danish side’s visit to Old Trafford, he might wish to consider entrusting his assistant Ryan Giggs with all coaching responsibilities for the time being.

Too soon? Anyway, here’s a longer clip from the press conference for a match that United have to win, trailing as they do 2-1 from the first leg:
