I'd be reasonably disappointed in my 2 years in charge of Utd with his record and money spent, and I've never managed a team.

Success doesn't happen overnight. Who will be given a chance to rebuild?

Bit heartless not to hold the leak until tomorrow, though.

A club like United and a man like Jose are a perfect fit

Where did it go wrong for LVG? He was a decent manager before he went to Utd.

Was it all down to him or some players brought in too?

Taxi for Mata! Wonder where he will end up now.

Clinging on to straws, it's so hilarious

Please continue

Me personally, he's not my preferred choice but change is needed
LVG hasn't delivered enough

Why are you replying to him so?

Ridiculous decision. United win the cup - then sack the manager. It really does demonstrate the culture that is now ingrained in the club.

I didn't answer him. Just letting him know the situation. Hopefully he takes the hint.

The 5-3 game against Leicester, a couple of weeks into the job. I think that convinced him to take less risks and it just spiraled downwards from there.

I think he learned something at Utd. You might get away with playing adventurous football and losing or playing dull football and winning but can't get away with playing dull football and not winning.

I expected the match thread to be gold but this is turning out to be the better thread :pac:

So the yes votes , which were in the minority three hours ago are now ahead.

Oh boards you sneaky funny place.

To be fair to United, didn't Chelsea give the boot to Di Matteo after he won the Champions League.

We don't even bother playing the cup some years lad. :pac:

So you don't think it shows just a tiny little lack of class that the manager is axed just after United win their first trophy since Fergie departed?

Not often I agree with you
Good point
The board are making a move that needs to be made finally. LVG hasn't done enough with the resources available to him.
I actually think they gave him more time than he should of had. As much as I respect the man LVG should have been sacked at Xmas

Strange how little your care what I say yet you are one of my most feverish followers who is always wherever I am posting, the opportunity to reply to me was something that delighted you.

Anyway, more importantly, we'll see how this appointment goes, in my opinion more and more Mourinho looks like a coach of the past.

Have the club officially announced it yet?

I can count on one Simpsons hand the number of exchanges I've had with you. A few weeks ago and today are the first in a long time. You're talking out your arse.

You've had enough of my time now so... bye.

It happens with every sporting based poll it seems. The influx of Nate Diaz votes in the Diaz vs. Conor thread was legendary. Even today, in the Giro D'Italia stage, numerous votes were cast for the winner after the race ended. Whatever gets people through their day I suppose!

There are some clubs out there that over the last 26 years have hung on to managers out of sentimentality and I'm glad Utd seem to have learned from their mistakes.

And yet anyone posts any kind of comment disagreeing with me or with any anti Anderson sentiment at all I can always count on you to be one of the people to thank it. So no, good sir, I'm done with you.

Liverpool axed a manager barely a year after taking them to their closest attempt at a title in quarter of a century. Tis the nature of the beast these days.

I find that taking moral stances when you're a fan of a big club invariably comes back to make you look foolish.

Flint Fredstone

I'd be very surprised if van Gaal wasn't aware he was done after today.

I think its a great appointment for united, they need some one to put them back on the map short term and Jose is the man for that. Next year the prem is going to be mad with all the big name managers, Id say he will be having a lot of verbal battles, wouldnt mess with conte or the new watford manager though, they look like complete head the balls.
