The Mail are reporting that Louis van Gaal and his coaching staff have been sacked. BBC Sport are trying to verify the reports.
You're probably right there. Investors are really only interested in financial implications.
So go on, who's going to open the LVG sacked thread.
There are other outlets reporting the same, don't want to swamp the thread with tweets though.
Think we need a verification from BBC or the United twitter before we can do that.
When a more reputable source than the Daily Mail announces it.
I actually liked Hoek
I don't know much about him other than he his held in incredbly high regard. Some of this "inside story" stuff coming out today suggests there was friction between him and De Gea though, but it's hard to know how true all of those 'leaks' are.
My dick is tingling.
Bring on Jose!!!
the mental imageSurely that nonsense about Zlatan coming in as assistant manager is something that's after he retires in a year or two?
When he does retire, he'll be made the Swedish national team boss the next day so I don't think we have to worry too much.

it's happening!
I see the Daily Mail blew their load too early again.

Been there done that.
My thoughts too. Would potentially create a nice balance and Rashford might be able to learn a few things from him.
Player/coach would make more sense.
Feel like there's a real lack of Mourinho Photoshop gifs on the Caf ATM
I think it's more likely to be player/mentor/youth coach or something in the capacity. He's going to have to justify a huge salary and he's too old to play every match we take part in. I also can't see him taking training sessions, it's not his style.
Sky sports are also reporting that LVG has been sacked
Sky can feck off as far as I'm concerned
I think it's all waiting for the official statement
1pm, supposedly.
Tears of fecking joy!!!!
Look at Messi and Ronaldo, it's more to do with the players fitness and body shape than anything else. Regardless of whether Rooney played early or not hos body shape would hamper him as he got older, Owen was just injury prone.
Rooney shares the same build as me, I could tear it up from my teens till I was around 26-27, then I just dropped off a cliff fitness wise.
All the journalists suddenly rate Giggs really highly on Twitter. ABU the lot of them. Can't do anything right as far as they're concerned
Certainly adds fuel to the fire that he was at least one of the people behind the leak

Rooney is one of the reasons we won the FA cup don't you know?
Whats that got to do with what I said?
Nothing on the official site yet
Nothing on Babestation yet
They don't start until 10pm, or so I'm told.
Still believe that unless we get a great right winger and a creative CM and a top attacking right back we will still struggle to create chances next season, even under Jose.
Fact remains that van Gaal is at fault for not signing what we needed but it is also a fact that he didn't really have a good enough team with enough depth to challenge for the title. Now I sound like Rafa.

They can't make a statement before the watershed so we won't know till then.
Nothing on cartoon network.
Same here, in the last 12 months everything has started to get tougher to maintain. But he has access to the finest nutritionists and personal trainers so maybe his drop shouldn't have been as severe.
