Manchester United will only get rid of Van Gaal if they finish outside the top four at the end of the season.

I think he stated he's leaving or retiring in 2017.

Much needed goal and win. Hope it continues in the league with a decent run of fixtures coming up.

He took the job for 3 years.

Lingard had a decent performance for United. Doumbia made a right balls of that late chance for CSKA. A player free for an open goal.

WTF, he brings Martial off? This man is an absolute clown, if Mourinho gets whacked United may as well give him a shot because he cant be any worse than LVG.

The substitution paid off. 4 games in a row without conceding a goal that is Mourinho like at his best and United under LVG are difficult to beat unlike Chelsea currently.

[DuffleKing]

One of United's better performances this season going forward. Lingard was a real bright spark. The Russians parkked the bus and United did well to break them down eventually. De Gea proved his worth too.

Cant remember but think he said  in some press conference ... I could be wrong but he's not making it any easier if he is staying for another season

I thought Lingard lacked quality to be a United type player?

We're all entitled to think for ourselves - you should try it sometime

He may not know what year it is though....

We just about got there last night although I was gutted it was Rooney that scored, that buys him another month in the team without pressure. Once again he was useless, he offers nothing outside the box, he's nothing but a hindrance. The goal was all about Carrick, it was a brilliant ball to Lingard. Carrick takes more risks with his passing in the final 3rd than any other player we have, he deserves to start ahead of Basti based on last night.

We'll become a better side to watch when we bring in better players, still not convinced about Mata either will not write him off until he's playing with better players around him.

On a positive note we're keeping clean sheets and picking up points and these were games we were losing last seaosn, we kept 11 clean sheets last season in the league but we have 7 already this season, its progress.

Only issue I have with LVG is Rooney, over 3 years ago RVP was brought in because Fergie knew Rooney was past his best yet he's still here. Wilson's injury problems and Depays lack of form have saved him.

Slightly better last night speed of the passing was higher and looked more of a threat (not that that would have been difficult from recent times) but needs to be continued and improved even further.

To be fair Smalling has been superb in the last few games, he seems to have realised how strong he actually is and is now knocked players out of the way on way to winning the ball and actually playing it out. Long may that continue.
