Irate fans turn on Man United after Europa League shock
Van Gaal’s hopes of keeping hold of his job are hanging by a threat following his side’s shock Europa League loss to Danish minnows Midtjyllan d.
Unhappy United fans were heard chanting “We’re f*****g s**t” at Midtjylland’s MCH Arena as their team slid to another defeat.
Louis van Gaal, Manchester United manager put his side’s 2-1 defeat by FC Midtjylland down to Murphy’s law.
Micky Mellon’s side have the potential to seal Louis Van Gaal’s fate, if Shrewsbury can beat Manchester United.
Muhren, who spent three years at United during the 1980s, was asked by Omnisport if Van Gaal should resign, and the Dutchman said: “Yeah… but he says he doesn’t want to do that”. Struggling United’s executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is believed to have contacted Mourinho’s agent Jorge Mendes on Friday morning to see if the former Chelsea boss is willing to take over from Van Gaal before the end of the season. “What sometimes happens at this level is that the ambition goes, then the imagination goes, and you can’t improve them”. The performance wasn’t good enough and it has to be better’.
“It’s not acceptable”, the midfielder said.
“We don’t have a training ground, we come 29 miles to here, we get sandwiches from the local butty shop, the soup arrives just about half warm and we wash our own training kit”.
“I can only really apologise for losing a game like that and not rewarding them for their support”.
Van Gaal lost David de Gea to injury in the pre-match warm-up, his second major casualty of the week after Wayne Rooney and his 13th senior squad absentee through injury. The Argentinian made three big saves to spare the visiting team from greater humiliation.
This is quite evident considering Manchester United’s current form under Louis van Gaal.
Before the second leg takes place, United are in action in another cup competition as Monday sees them play an FA Cup fifth round tie at League One outfit Shrewsbury.
And, mindful of the possibility of anything like that happening again on Monday, Carrick has insisted he and his team-mates will be doing everything they can to emerge from the low of Thursday ready to bounce back.
Van Gaal cited Murphy’s law – an adage that states anything that can go wrong, will go wrong – when blaming the defeat on injuries.
He said: “I think a lot of supporters feel the problems at United are permeating down from the Glazer family at the very top of the club”.
