I distinctly remember you talking down to the rest of us for not understanding the football LVG has brought to United.
This is worse now than it was for me under Moyes
I feel slightly bad for him. The two goals - one a donkey error by Depay and the other a goal of the week contender by Arnautovic - were just bad luck to happen to us on the same day. Just shows when the tide turns, you cannot run away from it no matter where you hide. I feel that is the thing with LVG. The stars seem to be aligned against him and when this happens it is better to cut our losses.
Welcome to Manchester José Mourinho.
Yep. Sack him before we have another season to write off.
I think he'll go tonight Giggs in charge v Chelsea then Mourinho will be in.
You're right. One of the problems is the weak squad the manager built.
I lost count so today's defeat make it 4 wins in 15 or 16 games?
The players are good but he never built a team, we obviously lack quality but these players are a lot better than what LVG showed us.
I'm surprised Moyes didn't break that record.
I know, he needs to to go but the next manager will have hugely difficult job. The patience isn't there anymore and the pressure will be heavy from the start. I fear this group will fail the next manager also.
He wasn't as good as lvg obviously
He had a chance to build a team that could play his football. He failed.
Expect him to be gone by the time I wake up.
Just go on off to Portugal, Louis.
Enjoy retirement with your wife and family.

Van Gaal clearly wanted to rebuild the side with youth which you have to commend him for but this is an incredibly tough league and at the moment it does look like men against boys.
I agree. Even if the owner sell Manchester United for 3 billions and give him all the money LVG will blow it all away by purchasing sideways and back footballers
If the club aren't going to sack him then he needs to resign.
Hope he does see that it's best for all if he went himself
The manager is the problem. But Fergie, Charlton and the board are ultimately responsible for two calatimous appointments when Maurinho could have been appointed. All are guilty.
Just noticed, Did LVG kind of wave to the away fans before going off the pitch?
Apparently you've lost 3 in a row twice in 2015 and previously United have only ever done that 3 times. So LVG has 2/5 of that record. Awful.
Lmfaooooooooo
Nothing is aligned against anyone, we deserved to lose and played like SHIT
In fact feck it, knowing us, LVG will come out post-match and might say 'this isn't good enough, I have tried my best and the fans deserve more, I'm handing in my resignation to the club'Right I'm not even gonna bother advocating anything now. Utterly gutted. Might stay away till he's inevitably sacked.
Surely Jose to take over (but knowing us we'll try with Giggs at the behest of Sir Bobby) and get laughed at by Pep when we make a meek approach in a few months...
And we'll come out tomorrow and say we've emphatically denied his resignation and he's the right man to take us forward or something.....
Could be, its still an unbalanced squad. I wrote off the season after Shaw's injury, its night and day without him.
Still, it cant get much worse.
Probably due to a forgiving fixture list
It's time to cut this tumour out, with the rusty scalpel that is Mourinho.
I honestly don't think that individually the players in the squad are bad at all. When Mourinho first managed Chelsea and we finished 3rd a couple of years under Ferguson the squad (man for man) was probably worse than it is now. Aside from Ferguson now being gone, the big problem now is that the balance of squad is absolutely shocking and van Gaal has to take the blame. He's ousted so many players and is still trying to fit square pegs in round holes, plus the players are playing as though they have little to no faith in him.
i bet my mortgage that he wont be sacked by the end of the year
Took over after we finished 7th and is leaving us 6th (or 7th should Watford win today). Process and progress.
They've certainly been mistakes but we don't really know what happened with Mourinho and whether he really was available or not. I never believed Moyes was first choice but we couldn't exactly say that at the time. I never wanted Van Gaal either but it was bad timing when we were looking a new manager with the best all tied up.
That's not completely fair. We also have to take into account the shit tactical decisions made by the manager.
