Four weeks ago, Louis Van Gaal's job with Manchester United was criticized, but there was a sort of certainty about it. Today, the Red Devils reached a new low, as Van Gaal's crew was unable to score in a Boxing Day match for the first time in 26 years, earning the team their fourth consecutive loss in all competitions, and putting their manager's job in serious jeopardy.
Stoke City scored two first half goals, courtesy of Bojan Krkic and Marko Arnautovic. The game's opening goal came after Memphis Depay showed his poor defensive skills near United's box, failing to clear the ball with his head and leaving it for Glen Johnson to cross. Bojan said "thanks" and sent it in with a stylish finish.
Depay's antics were not overlooked by fans.

Depay annoys everyone because of his flashy lifestyle and plays trash. You cant have Ronaldos lifestyle and play like Bebe!

I think is more the manager than depay being rubbish, Di Maria was arguably Madrid's best performer in 2014 and Lvg turned him into downing

The team's inability to score turned everyone's heads towards the one they consider the villain: Louis Van Gaal. After a complicated week as United's boss, the Dutchman seemed to have no reaction whatsoever while his team tanked against Stoke.

Even "José Mourinho" made an appearance at Britannia Stadium
Here's Van Gaal's reaction after being asked about the possibility of being sacked.
Finally, there's "someone" ready to take over Man United's destiny.
