Van Gaal’s FA Cup win was never going to be good enough to keep him in the job.The BBC reported yesterday that the great one would be appointed in his place shortly.
Van Gaal came with the promise of a bright new day after the dark night of Moyes but it all went wrong.The day never dawned.
Van Gaal managed to lead them in the opposite direction to which he was supposed to go.
In this season United have the dubious record of being the team with the largest number of passes in the wrong direction.(One damning statistic among many others )

So United will be hoping that Mourinho will be the (special) one to take them back to the glory days.
