Delighted for Leicester but Christ everything about their success this season drives home how awful LVG is and the ****e he's been peddling for 2 season's is really starting to stink.

you could say the same for any amount of managers this season, wenger, mourinho at start of season with chelsea, pelligrini.

If we had another 5 points this 4th spot be in our own hands.

I know it's ifs, buts and maybes. but when you think of all stupid points we dropped.

I actually wonder how much pressure this team and Manager can handle.

I dont believe that Van Gaal spreads confidence within this team.

Im convinced it would be harder for us defending 4th place then trying to get 4th place with 2 games left.

If you know what i mean

True story Kew
We only took 8 points from 18 against the bottom 3

He is club captain and should be setting an example,not bitching about where he plays,it's not as if he was asked to play in goal.

Exactly and who did he think was going to play up front if not him?

It honestly doesn't surprise me that Rooney would be react the way Van Gaal suggests but I don't think Van Gaal needed to share that with the media.

It's just another little thing to add to all the other crap that seems so wrong at the club right now.

Couldnt give a crap how bad everyone else has underperformed.

No I see what you mean and actually agree too

It's mad to think that a Sunderland team who have found it hard to score all season under big Sam, have 1 less goal scored than us. Bournemouth are level.

And that we've won one less game than second placed Spurs

Imagine if we had gone out to win games on our own merit rather than worrying about the opposition and trying to nullify them?

Im really worried that if by some miracle we get CL and win the FA Cup, LVG will stay on

I think he will win the FA cup and quit.

Tell everyone he won a trophy and jog on.

He would take that as turning united around.

He wont win us the league and he as well as the Club knows it.

If it is to be his last job then it's a decent finish to his career. In a few years time people will most likely forget how bad the football was and see it as him giving a number of players their first games, signing Martial and getting the club back winning.

I can't really see anything new to complain about over today - Just the usual evidence of why LVG should not be retained for that third season. Sure, there were mistakes, but nothing new for LVG's United. Obviously, you are all entitled to vent as much as you want as we wait for Summer, but our results haven't been the worst since that 2-0 Europa defeat at Anfield on March 10th. We've lost one game in all competitions since then (1L, 3D, 6W).

That is not me advocating for keeping LVG around, not in the fúcking slightest, just that I'm now kinda getting what I was looking for around February/March: 'I want the manager gone now but know that it won't happen until late May at the earliest, so if he could see out the season respectfully and keep us challenging for something until the final week or two, that will do given the circumstances and then hopefully we can close the LVG book after that and move on.' Barring that 3-0 defeat to Spurs, he has been doing that for the last 8 weeks or so.

A 0-1 win away today is grand for me in that context. LVG resting some overplayed players in this game is okay for me too. West Ham are better than Norwich, and have a few things to give them a jant in terms of firing them up for Tuesday's game (last game at the Boleyn, humiliating defeat today, still can finish ahead of us) so it is unarguably the tougher of the two matches on paper and some players needed a rest for now, not for the long-term.

Yes it's been a horror show, but the conclusion is turning out to be not just as gory as I was expecting it to turn out around two months ago. Today's result more or less guaranteed that the club won't finish below 6th in what has been our worst season in modern history bar none (we need to lose our last two games, and Southampton to win theirs to drop to 7th). There's an FA Cup final in the mix as well. This is damage limitation at this point, not things to really gloat about, but we're almost at the finish line now and not as battered and bruised as it looked like we were going to be.

On the upside, I saw a "journalist" from Spain saying Jose is done and will be announced before the next game, and Griezmann hash as said he would be interested in a move to us.

For my sanity, I will believe this instead...

sky88

if he gets top 4 and fa cup win I think he'll stay on.

I can't take another year of this

The_Kew_Tour

The question that's going be asked

1. Win the cup, get Top 4 and Lvg stays

Or

2.Beat in cup, come 5th, Jose

I'm going be murdered for saying number 1.
Why? I just can't resign myself to hoping United getting beat, I know.

Time too start following Celtic lads and forget about United if this happens.

I can't even see how this team will beat Palace even unless we get a good start, Palace will be fired up and if they get confident these players will go into a shell and either De Gea saves us again or where bet

Ok lads, too much doom and gloom on here about Van Gaal staying on.

Time to come aboard my positivity train. Van Gaal won't be here next season even if we win the FA cup and finish in the top 4.

HE IS GONE IN THE SUMMER.

RobbingBandit

How long would Jose be given to rebuild the team. Better yet how long will it take.

De Gea and Rashford are about the only two safe.

Another good reason to see Swansea beating West Ham today is they play City at home next week and it's good to see them finishing the season strong and not in holiday mode

Little bit late but yesterday was a year ago to the day that PSV announced that memphis had signed for us instead of Liverpool I remember how happy I was that we had signed him and how good he was i hate to blame lvg for everything but id love to see him under another manager.
