Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal had plenty to celebrate on Saturday.

Kyle Walker's unfortunate own goal helped the Red Devils record their first victory of the Premier League season courtesy of a 1-0 scoreline, which sent the Old Trafford faithful home with a smile on their faces.

The Dutchman admitted that he had expected more from his side against Spurs, but he was still in a good mood at his post-match press conference.

For today is Van Gaal's 64th birthday and the United boss treated reporters to a rendition of the famous Beatles' number in celebration of his anniversary.
