It has been reported that Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is expecting a tough game against Middlesbrough in the next round of the Capital One Cup.
The Red Devils will host the Championship club in the fourth-round at Old Trafford in late October and van Gaal is not assuming it will be a walk in the park for his men.
“It is the top club in the Championship,” the United manager said of the Boro clash after his side defeated Ipswich Town 3-0 on Wednesday night.
“It shall not be easy. Also this game was not easy.
“I am happy with the result and the draw because we are playing at home.”
