(Reuters) - Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal is in no mood to take a break after leading his country to third place at the World Cup on Saturday, starting work with new employers Manchester United on Wednesday, he told Dutch NOS television.

Van Gaal is scheduled to return home with the Dutch squad on Sunday after their 3-0 win over Brazil in the third place playoff match in Brasilia and will embark on his next venture after taking just two days off.
