United, who have been parachuted down into the Europa League following their Champions League exit, head into the game in fourth place in the Premier League table and six points behind surprise leaders Leicester City after 16 games.

Manchester United fans are hardly likely to be enjoying the club’s current woes, but it seems that rival supporters certainly are.

So, how safe is Van Gaal? A squad participant might nonetheless play 15 video games a season. They have crashed out of the group stages of the Champions League and lost 1-2 to English Premier League (EPL) strugglers Bournemouth in their last match.

18 months later and it’s safe to say that Louis van Gaal has simply not fit the bill.

With all of these things in mind, many are of the opinion that van Gaal might not be around for too much longer and that’s why today, we’ve devised a list of five possible United managerial replacements for him next season.

Delaney joined Off The Ball and explained how it was a common knowledge that the Spanish contingent felt Van Gaal’s style was inhibiting the creative instinct of many players.

While it was always going to be hard for United to achieve great success in the years following Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure, it is certainly understandable as to why people are questioning whether van Gaal is the right man for the job.

Having said that, Jose Mourinho now looks destined to end his second spell at Chelsea sooner rather than later and, as for the thought of the Special One kicking up dust as he struts through the Old Trafford gates… yes, please.

The former winger likes what he has seen from both players. However, a strong finish to the season for Van Gaal – a sustained title challenge and maybe even a trophy – will make all this talk go away, reports the Manchester Evening News.
