Manchester United manager Louis Van Gaal is confident that a top four finish for the club would be enough to keep him at the club.
The belief can be considered optimistic considering the fact that the fans have not been happy with the results as well as the playing style provided by the Dutchman this campaign. A top four is certainly not good enough for a club of United's stature and on the other hand, it also effectively means that the club has not improved upon from last season.
However, LVG has a good relationship with Manchester United chairman Ed Woodward and that may play an important role with respect to his job. Earlier in the season, when results were far from expected, there were rumors that the United management were not willing to accept the resignation of the Dutchman.
However, it may be a possibility that the pressure from the fans can also play a hand in the management sacking the former Bayern Munich manager. Mourinho, although controversial, certainly guarantees more success than Van Gaal, and it may be beneficial for the club to attain that short term success to put them back as a serious contender in the Premier league.
United are currently fifth in the table and six points behind arch rivals Manchester City. However, with Tottenham , Arsenal and City looking unlikely to slip up and the in form Leicester City 12 points ahead of the Red Devils, it looks a slim chance that United may even finish in the top four.
