Van Gaal demands apology – “I think I was already sacked”
English media have speculated since last Thursday that Manchester United are planning to appoint Mourinho as their next manager.

According to ESPNFC’s Miguel Delaney, though, Manchester United officials appear set to give van Gaal a few more games.
Rumours have been circulating all week that he could lose his job, with former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho now available and reportedly willing to take the United hot seat if the opportunity arises.
United could appoint Van Gaal’s assistant Ryan Giggs as interim boss – a role he served following David Moyes’ sacking in 2014 – in a bid to buy time until Guardiola is available. This is not a head coach for Manchester United.
Like Van Gaal, Rooney has received plenty of criticism this season after netting only twice in the Premier League. “We regularly have meetings with myself and the other senior players in the squad and with the manager as well”.
“Louis van Gaal is clearly a teacher”.
A group-stage exit from the Champions League earlier this month was a significant disappointment for a club who won the trophy in 2008 and have reached two finals since.
The Dutch coach is overseeing an increasingly troubled reign at Old Trafford, with the club having lost their last three matches-against Wolfsburg and newly promoted pair Norwich City and Bournemouth.
With Chelsea and Liverpool out of the title race, the expectation is that United should be at a minimum in the top three, and ideally challenging for the league title. “I just don’t think that Van Gaal understands English football”.
Van Gaal: “Erm, has anybody in this room not a feeling to apologise to me? That’s what I’m wondering”, he said.
“He is a top quality manager, not so much for what he has won already because Bayern won before he was there and [his former club] Barcelona are winning now, but because of his positive attitude towards the game and that he wants his teams to play in a positive manner, that I respect”, he said. I have been sacked.
President Florentino Perez is believed to have already sounded out Mourinho for a potential Bernabeu return should he choose to axe Benitez. “What do you think happens with my wife or my kids?” Or with my grandchildren?
“Do you think I want to the media now”.
“If they don’t have that desire then I will say: ‘Thank you very much.’ I don’t need players who don’t have the desire”. I have to talk with you. “But you will use my words in your context”.
“I have tried to lift the confidence of my players”. I have done everything this week. “I know colleagues in the media appreciated such a festive gesture”. “I’m working hard to try and improve that”, England striker Rooney, who has two Premier League goals this season, said.
