What a fecking day!
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Oh what a day.
What a lovely day!
What a lovely day!
We haven't sacked him after the match.
He would have known for weeks, or even months.
BBC just decide to go with it after the match. The club hasn't offically announced anything.
Van Gaal is gone guys!!! He's gone!!!
Some people saying it's harsh on Van Gaal 
Christ.
Christ.Just poured myself a whiskey, dedicating this one to my fellow caftards
Feel for Mata though, just won cup and realises he is being sold this summer all in 1 day
Excellent news but the timing of it seems somewhat misplaced. Seems so awkward
we probably told LVG this was his last game before today.
I hope some people on here will write apologies to Woodward for all the ballox they have written. After the nightmare of December, there was no-one better to immediately replace LVG with.
With Mourinho unavailable due to Chelsea contract gardening leave, he had to deny LVG'S offer for resignation and somehow reassure and remotivate him, whilst sacking him at the end of the season!
With the FA Cup bringing back memories of the winning feeling, Woodward deserves a lot of credit for how he has handled this situation: with maturity, professionalism and strict confidence. Not surprising that the Glazers trust him so much.

Beautiful. Should have been appointed instead of Moyes but in the normal United way we stumble onto the right man.
Manchester United manager at the David Haye fight
I hope we break like transfer record after transfer record and end up spending like 250m.
yeah lets spend spend spend and turn into a plastic club
I want him gone, but I think to anounce it so soon after winning the F A Cup us poor timing. Let him celebrate his wun.
Varane & Ibra to start with please
How long till next season...?
Havent posted in a while but thought this deserved a comment.
Brilliant choice, LVG got us a trophy and thank you for that, but it was super boring the last 2 seasons. I wonder if Mata will be happy? I'm sure there will be some big players lining up to join us now LVG is out.

LVG won't be asked about it I assume in the press conference, hope not really. Let him enjoy it.
I wouldn't be saying this if the story hadn't broken

Did you see how animated he looked near the end?
Very much like Fergie in that last European game v Madrid.
Either stubborn to the very end OR he just wants to celebrate winning some silverware (and rightly so).
I always trusted you @Acquire Me
Bet it's the first questionLVG won't be asked about it I assume in the press conference, hope not really. Let him enjoy it.

LvG basically said hes not going to comment on any of these rumours
Bingo, don't love the guy, but hope he's immensely successful here.
Once the French cup final is over Ibrahimovic will announce hes arriving.
Bit of a classless way for the club to let Louis know, as he is trying to celebrate a massive achievement, but I guess its got everyone else happy.
Sky reporting Mendes is coming to England to complete the deal.
As will watching Zlatan score against Pep's city.
It is unbelievable how much stick Woodward gets. Nobody knows what goes on behind the scenes.
I'd have given him tomorrow to celebrate and announce this on Monday.
It's a bit unfair after a cup win.

Breakfing on Sky: Mendes flies into England Tuesday to finalise the deal

According to MUTV he's been asked about it
What did he say?
was sure he would be coming to us. I'm just dispointed he was not appointed In Decemebr.
I'm thinking the exact same. He's always been a great manager in my eyes, but the wind ups were a little mad for me. But now that he's our manager? Who fecking cares. If his mind games gets the better of Wenger and Pep, I do not give one feck.
I'm hoping he respects our youth tradition, if he can do that the rest is fine.
Welcome Mr Mourinho.
You think Ed leaned over before the trophy was being handed out and went "Congrats on the cup win, Lou. By the way, you're binned."
No way. If van Gaal is getting replaced he will have known it for a while now.
Glad it seems to be happening, feel sorry for Van Gaal, but that sub today playing Young as a striker really summed up Van Gaal's time here for me.
