Manchester United’s Louis van Gaal hints at quitting after Boxing Day loss
United have slipped to sixth in the Premier League after three consecutive defeats – the second such sequence under Van Gaal – and were knocked out of the Champions League after a 3-2 loss at Wolfsburg earlier this month.

“I have received [support of players and board] all the time but we have lost so there is a new situation”.
“It is not always [that] the club has to fire or sack me”.
United midfielder Michael Carrick said that Van Gaal still had the support of his players.
Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal will quit before he is fired if his team does not “respond” with a convincing performance in what is now a crunch match against Chelsea at Old Trafford on Monday. That is the problem now.
“It’s more hard, people are looking at me, I have to deal with that, the players have to deal with that”.
A weak back header from Memphis Depay enabled Glen Johnson to tee up Bojan Krkic for the Potters’ opener in the 19th minute.
Mark Hughes had nothing but praise for Stoke City in their win over Manchester United.
Sky Sports report that training at the club’s Carrington training complex ahead of Monday’s game with Chelsea was taken by assistant coach Ryan Giggs, and that Louis van Gaal was conspicuous by his absence.
“It is not only the circumstances with the wind but also with the pressure”.
“And I have to deal with that, but much more important is that the players have to deal with that because they have to perform”.
“You don’t understand my message”, he said.
“I watched his body language very closely on Saturday”, said Bosnich, continuing to add, “he just looked like a defeated man. The fact that he actually said he might come out and resign told its own story in itself”.
“The second half was a different game from our point of view because you expect a reaction and to a certain extent that’s what we got”. When asked about that option, Van Gaal responded, “that is something I speak to Ed Woodward about by himself – not with you”.
They were already 2-0 behind after an very bad first-half display when Rooney, starting on the bench in a league match for the first time since 28 January 2014, was introduced at the start of the second period.
