Manchester United needed a 19 goal victory against Bournemouth to finish fourth and qualify for the next season’s Champions League.
Surely, that was never going to happen and the Red Devils won 3-1 on the night to finish the league campaign on a high.
Now, Louis van Gaal and his team will be focused on the FA Cup final and the Dutch manager may have his final chance of winning a trophy for the club. It will not come as any surprise if he leaves at the end of the season.
Former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is closing in on joining the Red Devils and the United faithful want the Portuguese boss to replace Louis van Gaal at Old Trafford.
Goals from Young, Rashford and Rooney earned Man United all three points against the Cherries.
Arsenal star Petr Cech has won the Golden Glove award. Spanish goalie had the chance to go level with the Czech international as far as the clean sheet table is concerned, however, the former Atletico Madrid star conceded a late stoppage time own goal.
Majority of the Man United fans only had one thing in mind after the game and they want Louis van Gaal out of the club.
Here are a few tweets.
@ManUtd This season has sucked the joy out of football for me. It’s been long, tiresome, made my blood boil and delivered false hope.

Ed Woodward must be a complete fool if he cannot see how horrible we have been this year. You set targets that you need to hit to retain your job and Van Gaal has hit none of them. I wish I could get a job like that, where apparently it just doesn’t matter how you perform. I am a fifty year veteran supporter of this club and I have not in all that time seem such rubbish football. The statistics do not lie. Only three teams scored less goals than us this year so that has to tell you something. He whinges that our expectations are too high. Rubbish. To lower our expectations is to accept mediocrity and that is just not good enough for Man Utd. This “team in transition” crap is just that, crap. We have a very good squad, albeit rather thin in places but a good squad all the same, but they are just not being allowed to express themselves in the “Man Utd Way”. Wise up Woodward, pay him out and move on or accept the fact that mid table is a fair achievement……
EW Woodward and Management should please ANNOUNCE MORINHO, before another club does that ahead of us
Come on United fans, get real! Martial is excellent, De Gea is superb, Rashford is a potential gem, Blind is acceptable, old fatso has always had a wonderful passing range and looks really good in his new midfield role and Smalling is good but, other than that, the squad you’ve got is mediocre to say the least.
The above-mentioned players would get into Liverpool’s team or squad but none of the rest of your team would . . . and with this still being a very average Liverpool team it shows why you are currently crap.
Like us you’ve got too many average players and you replace one average player with another with every team change and the result is another average showing. It ain’t rocket science!
When your Man of the Match most games is the goalie doesn’t that tell you something?
No, leave LVG alone . . . he’s doing a wonderful job! I’d give him a ten year contract and have bomb exercises at OT every Friday if I could!
Oh, yes, thanks for snatching Memphis from out of our grasp last year . . . we almost got him before you wasted your money instead of us wasting ours!
(PS- The “RED” bit of RED PHIL is NOT for the red of United.)
That is why you were routed yesterday by Sevilla. You Will Never Win A Cup.
This absolute diabolical of football what I have seen this year. I am a dutchman an follow United for many years. LVG is not the right Manager for the club. THe board must sack him, before its to late.Otherwise yuo get the same shit for next year. The board must listen to the supportes and get ris of him.Is Ed Woordward blind.It is a disgrass you spent over 200 millions ponds and not qualifier for the Champions League.So hear my voice, and good luck.
Looks like we ‘got what we’ve been asking for..’ – only time will tell if it’s the right decision!
