Manchester United's attacking midfielder appears to be more popular with fans than his coach.

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal might not be keen on him as he struggles to nail down a regular starting spot at Old Trafford, but the club's fans appear keen on the former Real Madridmidfielder.

They sell shirts for Arsenal, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Liverpool, United, Manchester City, Tottenham and Newcastle.
Sports Direct also declared that it would need to flog 965,000 shirts with Di Maria's name to generate the £59.7 million United paid to sign the player last summer.
Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez was second with his surname adoring 3.8 per cent of shirts sold, with Chelsea's Diego Costa third at 2.3 per cent.
United stopper David de Gea was at number four on the list - pretty impressive for a goalkeeper - with a share of 2.16 per cent.
