    Even money sound fine? 10 quid to the winner at the end of the season via paypal?

    So are you also saying Mourinho is not capable because of what has happened at Chelsea?! Has Klopp turned around Liverpool, sometimes too much emphasis has been put on the manager and not the players.

    I understand what you are saying and I am playing a bit of devils advocate over van Gaal but sacking him will not suddenly make Man U great. The team has been on the wane for a while. You never replaced Scholes and the midfield looks inbalanced, the centre backs are poor in possession and you lack fire power and quality in the final third. Players like Blind, Depay, Fellaini are average, not the kind of players that a world class side signs - maybe Man U just cannot compete on wages, so why not keep those loyal such as Welbeck.

    Compete on wages? United have second highest wage bill.

    Might be disrespectful but felt like making a list of what LVG will be remembered for at MU:

    Negatives:
    > Signing players and inexplicably tending to prefer players he already had in the team, or playing them out of position
    > Trying to reduce fan expectations about what to expect of the club
    > Questionnable press conference conduct, especially his embarrassing long ball rebuttal to Sam Allardyce
    > Sitting on his arse all game and showing no passion
    > Naivety in cup competitions and lack of ambition
    > Inability to anticipate squad imbalances and importance of squad depth

    Pros:
    * Getting 4th place in first season
    * Getting drunk at Christmas party ("Louieee Van Gaaal's armyyy")
    * Signing Martial

    Add to list if you can think of any more

    They can compete on wages, they are paying £300k a week to Rooney and spent £300m on average players.

    sure LVG need to go now
    players to be blamed too .. but without a believe is hard to see them give more
    I rather have Jose over Pep.. hope we do the sensible thing and get the first instead of waiting for 2nd whole season then he choose another club

    Done. I believe my stalker has already felt the need to document this!

    Given your username will no doubt change several times before the end of the season (and I have no idea who you are/were!) that's probably not a bad thing!

    If we lose this game, LVG should resign as players are no longer responding. We can't play every match hoping it would be the end of a terrible run. This run is actually worse than terrible run. It is a disgraceful run given how much has been pumped into the squad.

    Thats nonsense. Thanks to LVG theres a whole new viewing audiences for your games. After watching hours or reruns of Dibley and fools and horses over the xmas its lovely to finish it off with real life boxing day comedy

    He puts himself in good positions weirdly enough. But he just doesn't have it in him to aim for anything but the keeper.
