Louis van Gaal says he could quit Manchester United by himself
Louis van Gaal has hinted that he may resign before being sacked as Manchester United manager, as reported by The Independent . BBC Sport quote him as saying: “It is not always the club that has to fire or sack me.
Although San Francisco has a hard time scoring, their defense has been steady for the most part all season. This comes to discipline and focusing on your assignment. “We started fast and put some points on the board and had a good first half but we just gotta find a way to come out and execute better in the second half”.

Y’all don’t even know my name”. “He has this thing going on with his neck, but we don’t know the extent of the seriousness”. Beckham issued a written apology Wednesday in which he said: “This isn’t about anything that was said or done to me”.
San Francisco got some reinforcements on the outside with linebacker Aaron Lynch returning from a concussion.

Search teams combed damaged homes and businesses for people still missing, including at least one man in hard-hit Benton County. The rushing water separated the family as they got out of the auto , he said, but the boy was later reunited with his family.
The 49ers became the first team to have six offside or neutral-zone penalties in the first half since 1993, when the Houston Oilers did it against New Orleans, according to STATS.

“At this point, it doesn’t mean much”. After giving up a field goal on the ensuing possession and a touchdown on the one after that, Gabbert found Torrey Smith for a 16 yard touchdown and a 14-10 lead. Of course, as Jim Tomsula has said (something actually reasonably accurate from him!), Hayne’s best chance to improve is getting work. “I’d much rather take the win”.

Harris had some impressive first-half carries before Detroit’s defense largely contained him in the second half.
Since Hayne’s axing the 49ers lost running backs Carlos Hyde, Reggie Bush and Mike Davis to injury and earlier this week cut underperforming free agent signing Travaris Cadet.
The Lions are expected to do everything in their power to keep Johnson, who’ll play most of next season at age 31, in Detroit for a 10th season.
