"If Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is a man whose job is under threat, he certainly didn't seem it as he faced the media, saying instead Sunday's opponents Tottenham are the ones under pressure as they they chase Leicester at the top. 

"The Dutchman won't rush captain Wayne Rooney back into the team, and will instead play for the club's under-21s against Middlesbrough on Monday. 

"Van Gaal also heaped praised on Spurs for their teamwork, and leaders Leicester's players for the way they have taken responsibility this season - something he would clearly like more of from his team. 

"The only time he was slightly annoyed was by questions about the possibility of a role as technical director with the Dutch FA, which he swatted away."

Manchester United may be more accustomed to fighting for the title than battling for a European place, but Louis van Gaal’s side could still have a major say in the title race. They still have leaders Leicester to face, and this weekend go to second placed Tottenham who could be 10 points behind the Foxes by Sunday’s kick-off. 

United have performed better against sides in the top half of the table this season - losing only once in nine games against teams in the top seven - and have more points against those top sides than anyone else.

The question for Louis van Gaal is can they continue that against a Spurs side who can ill afford any more slip ups?
