Young: 'Man Utd happy with tactics'

Manchester United winger Ashley Young has insisted that the squad is happy with manager Louis van Gaal's tactics.

The Red Devils were accused of playing long-ball football by West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce following Sunday's 1-1 draw with the Hammers at Upton Park.

Despite criticism over their direct style of play, Young claims that he and his United teammates are pleased with the progress that they are making this season.

"Lots of people are saying it's not our style, but we're happy with how things are going," the 29-year-old told BBC Sport. "The boys have fought back at West Ham and showed the team spirit to get the point."

United are back in action tomorrow night when they welcome Burnley to Old Trafford in the Premier League.
