Premier League: Man United should keep Van Gaal, says Phil Neville
Manchester United should stick with Dutch manager Louis van Gaal, says former Red Devils defender Phil Neville in a BBC Sport (link://www.bbc.com/sport) interview. The Man United boss admitted he is worried about his job security after losing to Norwich last time out, making it six games without a win for the club. "It's not the Sir Alex Ferguson era now; that time has gone and there needs to be a reality check," Neville said. "It's the Louis van Gaal era. Constant change is not the answer." The manager has been under criticism from some fans for his style of play, but now the results have stopped coming as well. This is the first time since 1998 that Manchester United go six games without a win in all competitions. "I was at United as a player for nine years and it wasn't pretty every week," Phil Neville added. "There seems to be an obsession at all clubs now, if you don't get the right results in four or five games then it's time to change the manager. That is not the answer. There is talent in the team. United are only a few points off the top three, it's not all doom and gloom but performances must get better. He has the experience, he can handle being at Old Trafford and people need to relax about constantly needing to change and sack managers." Manchester United are 14/1 at Bet365 to win the Premier League title this season.
