Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has insisted that he is completely different to former manager Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.
The Dutchman has claimed that his desire for new "challenges" makes him different from Ferguson, who spent 26 years at Old Trafford, and Wenger, who has been in charge of Arsenal for the last 19 years.
Van Gaal's longest spell at a club is six years and that was with Dutch outfit Ajax, but he has also had spells at Barcelona, AZ Alkmaar, Bayern Munich and the Netherlands national side.
"Arsene Wenger and Sir Alex Ferguson are other types I think," The Express quotes Van Gaal as saying. "I like challenges and I always want more, so it's also dependant on your character and what you want to do.
"I have set my aims always in advance. It's the same thing as what I'm doing now. I shall retire [after this job]. I always do what I have said I'm going to do."
Van Gaal's contract at United expires in the summer of 2017.
