Chiefs warn Van Gaal

Bayern Munich coach Louis van Gaal has been advised to make changes to his management style by two of the most senior figures at the club.
General manager Uli Hoeness and president Franz Beckenbauer both urged the Dutchman in an interview with the Bild newspaper not to take on so much responsibility himself.
Hoeness said: "Louis van Gaal has the opinion that he has to sort out everything himself. But one single person can't do everything."
He added: "Louis is also still surprised by the power which is behind FC Bayern. The secret is probably that all parties have to recognise that they have to cooperage. The coaches, the board, the medical staff etc."
Beckenbauer added: "He has to learn to delegate trust and responsibility."
Van Gaal has endured a tough start to his reign at the Bavarian giants.
Bayern have a fight on their hands to qualify for the second stage of the Champions League and only lie eighth in the Bundesliga table.
