Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal does not feel that his side should necessarily be thrashing Danish outfit FC Midtjylland and has talked up his side's opponents.
Van Gaal's men lost the first leg of their Europa League round of 32 fixture against Midtjylland 2-1 in Denmark, but have the chance to make amends tomorrow when the Danes visit Old Trafford.
The Dutchman was asked at a press conference this afternoon whether he feels his side should be making easier work of the Danes.
But Van Gaal was full of praise for Midtjylland and noted they always do well against English sides.
"No, I think Midtjylland has a very good organisation, very detailed and the players want to perform that organisation", the Red Devils boss said.

"They play with diagonal pressing. I do that also with my team. Not many teams are doing that.
"And when I see the data of Midtjylland they have always won against English opponents", he added.
Despite Van Gaal's comments about the strength of Midtjylland, Manchester United will start as red hot favourites to beat the Danish side and qualify for the last 16 of the Europa League tomorrow.
Manchester United's last match saw them ease to a 3-0 win away at Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup.
