Manchester United predicted 4-2-3-1 v Shrewsbury: Mata axed

Shrewsbury Town are now sat in the League 1 relegation zone after struggling to cope with life in League 1 after promotion to the division last season.

While Giggs may be one of the favourites to take over if Van Gaal leaves, the Daily Mail’s Martin Samuel and James Ducker of The Times have questioned whether he is the man the fans really want despite his legendary status as a player.

With his side six points behind fourth-placed Manchester City in the Premier League, the Dutchman admitted earlier this week the most viable way into next season’s Champions League for United would be winning the Europa League.

“The FA Cup is an opportunity to win some silverware and a competition we’ve done well in so far this season”. When you’re a manager, you understand that at certain times you’re on your own.

“The only good thing (about the game) is that the supporters have been incredible again”, the England global said.

Former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been linked with the job since being sacked at Stamford Bridge in December, but it is now believed that United favour appointing current assistant manager Giggs in the summer instead. “The aggression that you start the game with is something you need to match with the other team, something that I don’t think we have done recently”, he told MUTV.

Now a travel agent in his homeland has made arrangements to soften the blow if – or, more likely, when – Van Gaal is fired.

“The style of play at United has always been with wingers, this is a contrast”.

They claim top brass at the club have chose to hand the manager’s role to United legend Ryan Giggs, who is now serving as Van Gaal’ No.2. It’s ridiculous. Wow. If a lot of managers can do a thousandth of what he’s done, you’ll have had a great career.

Shrewsbury midfielder Ian Black has risked a Manchester United backlash by insisting their players don’t justify their pay packets.
