Louis van Gaal claims Manchester United will not be shackled at Old Trafford after it kept its patience to grind out a 2-0 win over West Bromwich Albion.

Van Gaal's side has found goals hard to come by of late and it initially found it difficult to break down an Albion team that defended in numbers.

But Albion's plan was shattered seven minutes into the second half on Saturday when Jesse Lingard scored his first United goal to break the deadlock.
