Van Gaal has opened up that his team have problems with set pieces ahead of their match with West Ham.
In West Ham, United face on of the best teams at set plays. And with Andy Carroll, United will have to be extra careful with long balls and set piece.
Despite having the best defence in the League, United have conceded from set piece against Leicester City, Tottenham, West Ham and were lucky not to against Aston Villa.
And this is problem, the Dutchman himself us aware of.
When asked about Carroll's threat, he replied:
"Yes. I am very worried about that. I am always organising.
"We have a meeting about that, every game, and it also takes a long time to organise it well.
"We are normally the smallest team in the Premier League so we always have problems with set-plays. At Norwich you saw that.
"We have to cope with that and you are right, I can’t deny that."
United fans will be hoping the likes of Smalling and Blind will do a perfect job in defence and add to United's number of clean sheets which is one step in winning the game.
