It’s understood the Premier League giants were hoping to make an announcement at the end of the season to avoid any distractions for the players. “But still we are here, still we are fighting for the fourth place, also we are in the final of the FA Cup”, Van Gaal said, as quoted by the Mirror.

That brings us to stoppage time, where Ander Herrera gives the ball back to Martial, and he fires it past Joel Robles to put United ahead 2-1. We were the better team in the first half and had so many chances – we could have finished it much earlier.

But despite being knocked out of the FA Cup semi-finals by Manchester United on Saturday, Martinez said he has earned the opportunity to stay on at Goodison Park beyond this season.

Exacerbated with Jesee Lingard lack of cutting edge in front of goal or a particular outstanding attributes; former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp feels the England global is just fortunate to be in Manchester United squad.

“In the end it was going up and down and was very high tempo in the match and when there is only three minutes of injury-time then you think you are going to extra-time”. “It was a insane second half”. We have lost against Arsenal 3-0 in London, then we won in Liverpool against Everton, 3-0. We’re not getting carried away because it’s a final and anything can happen.

The United manager admitted that he is not focusing beyond the final at Wembley and it is up to the board to decide whether he will retain his job beyond the 2015-16 campaign.

Martinez’s men lacked a cutting edge up front, whereas United buried their chances when it mattered most with lethality they have hitherto lacked this season.

‘We know where we’re at as a team and a club. “We’re really happy”, de Gea said.

“When you play in big games, there is a lot of motivation and we have to be motivated in the final too”.
