Is this one of the most unsavoury managerial eventualities in modern football? Louis van Gaal appears to be a lame duck in his position at Manchester United and Ed Woodward and his board doesn't appear ready to make a decision on his future.
Jose Mourinho has been linked heavily with the job and it appears as though the fans and even the street vendors outside Old Trafford are ready for a change.
Maybe we have reached sensational, unprecedented levels of trolling or just a message that 'enough is enough' but Jose Mourinho scarves are being sold outside United's stadium in United colours

United are winless in seven games and Simon Stone posted some interesting, if not devastating, stats that really show how badly Van Gaal has suffered in his sophomore year with the team.
Some Utd stats. Last time lost 5 on trot in all comps: Nov/Dec 1936. 8 without win: Nov/Jan 88/90. Lost 4 on trot in league: Dec/Feb 78/79.
