The Red Devils lost on the opening day to Swansea and dreww 1-1 at Sunderland last Sunday. But Van Gaal insists that he is used to a slow start.
"We can be the champions still in England now, in my first year. Maybe you shall laugh, but also in my former clubs I have started like this, so for me it's not big news or different, because I have already said that," Van Gaal told reporters.
"But you have to survive as a trainer, as a manager. You have to survive, because, nowadays, the fans are asking for results and this is the question: can I receive enough time to do all the steps we have to do?
"Maybe you the media can support Louis van Gaal. Do you believe in him? Yes? Okay. What a fantastic end, a fantastic end."
