Van Gaal- The expectation levels expected

Looking online today and I am a bit bemused by comments by Lois Van Gaal. On the whole you could say he has improved Man Utd as they seem more tactically aware and are achieving some good results and some level of consistency. But never has their been a better time for Manchester United to recruit a top class manager for the long term. Van Gaal has stated that he is going to try and see through the next year. The problem is with that is that if they fail to qualify for the champions league then , then it would be 4 seasons with only 2-3 Europa campaigns to show for it. Mourinho – I am surprised he has not been recruited by any of the other big clubs like Paris St Germain, so I think Manchester United need to act in the short term and pay up the remaining year. With Mourinho you get a manager that always gains the respect of the squad and makes a team ethic, he doesn’t suffer fools gladly and he showed in his first year in his second term at Chelsea that he could be tactically astute. I think that’s what Manchester United need, one the whole they still have a good home form. I think where they come unstuck is the away game strategy. Also I can see some of the bigger names not liking his style, but no player is bigger than this club. Now for all fans of football when Manchester United were in the Ferguson years they played some classy football and set some high standards. I think most Manchester United fans need to feel that the team has a spirit. But at the moment its lacking at those vital moments of the season. The comments from Van Gaal seem very strange. So my take on this comment is that he is saying ' Well we are fifth, what did you expect?'. The problem with Manchester United is as much about the team and the business. The share price will ultimately be affected by the lack of revenue Champions league football creates. I think the comment is extremely daft. Its a bit like being given millions and then missing out on something to then blame the level of the players he has brought. Its going to be an interesting summer in the story of Manchester United's next season and beyond.
