We're in with a chance in spite of him, not because of him.
I certainly wouldn't suggest he's done a good job, this season, if that's what you're getting at. De Gea, Martial and Smalling, combined with other big teams being similarly crap, is rather more the reasons we could come out of it looking okay than LVG himself.
It's that I'm not convinced I can think of an available alternative I'm confident would do a better one, that's why I remain hopeful his results are good enough this season that he stays on.
I think one more year, hopefully with a little improvement through some better forwards coming in, would see him leave us in a decent position and give us time to find a suitable successor (I obviously don't fancy the Portuguese bloke!).
I can't stand Mourinho either, but at this point I'd take a giant effigy of Jean Claude Van Damme made from turd and cheese as manager if it meant getting rid of LVG. Him getting us to fourth and the cup will just convince him he's right(not that he needs any more convincing he's so far up his own arse). It will just be the same crap next season with more failed signings, more players played out of position, creative players having their confidence destroyed, more awful playing for 0-0 or 1-0 football. He's just going to act like he did well to get us 4th and the cup and he doesn't need to change. He has to go no matter what happens from here. Even if it means bringing in Mourinho.
Don't care what he does. The speculation will be the same next year. We will not get higher than 4th under Van Gaal.
When a world class manager is available like Mourinho then we should go for him especially as Van Gaal is retiring next year. Van Gaal can end his career respectfully if he gets 4th and FA cup.

We've become such a laughing-stock that LvG is being held as the model of negativity used to help to clarify the rule changes for EURO2016.
Kick-offs can now be taken backwards at restarts: Here's how it's described in today's Daily Telegraph:
"Kicking off
As the domestic season winds down, treasure the goals your club concede, for they are performing for the last time one of the game's odder rituals. These are the final games in which despondent strikers must resume play by passing forwards, but when France and Romania kick off on June 10, the match can start with a backwards pass.
Louis van Gaal should be aware that the tweak is intended to stop the pass receiver trespassing into their opponent's half rather than as an endorsement of stultifying backwards-passing build-up play."
Admittedly they take a poke at Rooney too in the changes to the taking on of water but that's more a complexion and hot-headed temperament thing than a dig at United.

Crazy, I think we'd be better with NO manager, rather than another season with the deluded, arrogant, self-righteous, praise-stealing bluffer that's in charge at the moment.
If LVG is here next year Old Trafford will be toxic, the only reason it isn't now is that half of the supporters are on the same 'we aren't a sacking club' moral high horses that would have still had dosy Dave in charge & the other half believe LVG will be gone in the summer. The prospect of another season of this tripe will be touch paper to a shit-storm.
Not if we get fourth and win the cup. That would make a big difference to most fans feelings about LVG, I think.

No it definitely wouldn't.
LVG is toxic and almost as bad as Moyes at this point.
After the significant investment he got, to not even be assured 4th place is embarrassing.
I think you may be right but I also don't think they'd be demanding he went. I think if the board wanted to stick with him he'd get the benefit of the doubt from most.
He certainly won't if we don't win these three games though.
If the "backing away in Feb" stuff is true, then maybe it is because Sanches was a LVG target.
Wasn't the Mourinho pre-agreement contract meant to have been signed around that time....
He is staying.
Reading the comments in that thread, there really does seem to be a lot of vitriol directed towards LVG.
LVG must realise that he is becoming a hated figure and surely, he would think it best to walk away.
We are out of luck.
Seriously, what a fecking shambles we are
So it had nothing to do with Sanches choosing Bayern?
We watched this guy 26 times or whatever. It's clear we trying to save face.
Because the fans dont revolt. If we had fans who dint aspire to be t.op reds and just had fans who wanted good of the club he would be out of job in december, but we clap his ass off. feck this shit.
That Veto must be bollox, why would we have been chasing the player for so long then?
I doubt it very much, majority of people want him gone regardless. What's it going to achieve even if he does get us into CL next year? Watching him shove Nick Powell on against Wolfsburg again while we take another early exit and then lament the Europa League meaning he has too many games!?
Einstein once said "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results".
LVG is insane & keeping him on to face Pep & Klopp in a league in which he's already way out of his depth in is equally insane.
This is the same paper that claimed Arsenal were front runners in signing Schneiderlin the VERY SAME DAY when Schneiderlin was already in our training ground having a medical. So I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from this.
This.
The "not a sacking club" dribble boils my pi$$. Shredding standards by the game with this con-artist in charge.
I refuse to believe Woodward is that stupid
Then unfortunately we will have to sit and watch everything unravel and him being carted off in a straightjacket.
Keeping this piece of garbage would be shameful from the club, especially when it leaves us no one but sleazy to take over when he finally fecks off.
I'm interested to see what the fans do when he makes his end of season speech at OT. I think it'll be a mix of most people leaving the ground, polite applause and a few individuals booing if he achieves those objectives.
That'll be before the cup final, though, won't it?
Seems to be an increasing number of indicators around that appear to suggest that LVG is all but safe.
Like many the prospect of another year with this uninspiring, dogmatic, bore in charge leaves me pretty hollow, and if the information is to be believed about the prospect of "record" season ticket sales then we are royally f*cked, as there's no commercial pressure being exerted on the board to get shot of him anyway.
Mind you, I can't understand how this is the case as all of the ST holders I know won't even consider renewing if Vangle is still in charge.

I just can't for a second believe the season ticket stuff is true, it logically makes zero sense.
He's not going anywhere, isn't he? 
That there are close to record sales? I don't believe that for a minute, when there is no waiting list and most people on here either won't renew or know people who won't if he stays. It doesn't add up.
LvG staying really doesn't make sense.
Even of he stays, it will only be a week or two into the season and we will need to start thinking replacements for the next Summer when LvG retires anyway. Having just let Mourinho find another club.
It makes such little sense him staying that I know that is definitely what Ed Woodward will do

Basically if we keep him then it'll be even harder to sign players than whether we have CL or not, for starters who the feck would want to play in his shitty system, but also to sign for a guy you know is gone in one year with no clear view of who will be taking over bar a sleazy nobody, then it makes no career sense for a player.
He's actually not going
The utter state of this club....Polish that throne Louis!! Ryan "Quagmire" Giggs awaits

I think it's all down to the results, if he makes top 4 he stays, otherwise it's over for him. Making top 4 is the most important thing to the club and the basic minimum requirement from the board.
Having no CL football but Mourinho will attract better players than LVG and CL football, obviously, if it was to come to that.
We proved before not being in that competition isn't that much of a issue, even if most of those signings didn't work out for various reasons.

Yes of course. Doh.
