Garry Monk outwits frustrated Louis van Gaal

Swansea 2 Manchester United 1: Manchester United lost for the first time in the Premier League this season to leave Louis van Gaal both frustrated and disappointed with his side’s trip to south Wales.

Juan Mata’s 48th minute goal at the Liberty Stadium gave United a deserved lead, if only for the volume of possession they enjoyed during the first half.

However, after Swansea manager Garry Monk changed his formation to a diamond midfield four, Andre Ayew equalised in the 61st minute, and Bafetimbi Gomis won the day six minutes later.
