The Man United player has revealed who the teams DJ is, the person with the worst music taste and Van Gaal's music preference.

Ashley Young has revealed all there is to now about the music scene which we can find in the Manchester United dressing room.

Firstly, Young claimed he is the team DJ, after he took over from French international Patrice Evra when he moved to Juventus. 

"I’m the dressing room DJ. Patrice Evra was the last one, every time he wasn’t playing, or he was injured, I’d take over and do a mix and it went down quite well," Young told Footballer's Lives.

"There was no initiation. I just put my iPod on and was like ‘right, I’m taking over."

The Englishman also revealed what sort of music the boss likes, whilst also revealing a funny story about how Van Gaal shot down Darren Fletchers song selection.

“There are quite a lot of songs I’ll put on that everyone will listen to. But the manager, when he first came in, shouted Fletcher over and said ‘I don’t like this’. So we had to change it!" Young added.

"I’ve been told by the manager I can only play funky house or house music.

“Seriously that’s what he likes. That’s what’s on the playlist.”

And finally, the question we all wanted to know... Who has the worst music taste? David De Gea is the man according to Young, with the Spaniard often changing the music to to suit his 'crazy taste'.

“There’s a bit of conflict between myself and David De Gea, he’s just got some crazy taste in music," he said.

“It’s either dancing and Spanish stuff or it’s heavy metal, loud shouting and banging, just crazy to be honest. Whenever he puts the heavy metal on, a few people are looking around thinking ‘alright, we need to get out of here’."
