The Argentine defender revealed that Van Gaal only gets along with his players if they listen very well to him.

"He has a bulldog face, but he is great guy," Rojo said in an interview with Fox Sports Argentina.

"He's scary at first, but when you get to know him and relate to him on daily basis, you get along. But only if you listen to him.

"He has a really strong personality, but he is a great person. He listens to us, and even speaks a little bit of Spanish, so he always takes me to his office for a pep talk."

There have been some reports that the Dutch manager do not go along with South American players but even though he has had problems with the coach, Rojo does not agree with those reports.

"The fact that he holds a bad relationship with South American player is just a feeling [opinion]," Rojo said.

"I've been there with [Antonio] Valencia, [Radamel] Falcao, Angel [Di Maria] and he treated us all the same, he never treated us differently.

'Maybe because of his [poor] relationship with Roman [Riquelme] or with Angel leaving, some people got the wrong idea, but he treats us all the same.

"He is a great person and makes no differences between Europeans and South Americans."
