Mata's been decent tbf, maybe he's not first out the door?

Do we think Carrick is getting another 12 month deal? If not then it makes sense to keep him anyway.

For all of the stick that the board take from some of our 'supporters', they seem to act bloody swiftly, when the Champions League is out of reach.”

Yeah, these Jose rumours have been rumbling on for some time now, can't keep a lid on them forever.

With José having the same agent as De Gea in Mendes (if I am not mistaken), hopefully that will mean that De Gea will not be leaving us.

I don't understand what you mean about the headlines. Yes as Utd fans we're enjoying the day. I won't wake up tomorrow and be jaded by Jose being a bigger headline. For most of us it's actually more important.

It would be funny if he were to be that!

Fair enough, personally I think cup final wins should be the main headline, but I can see why others would be more excited about having a new manager.

No worries.

Van Gaal's not daft, he's well aware of what's been going on and is supposedly still as friendly as ever with Mourinho.

I just can't see Mata and Jose working out after what happened at Chelsea - Mata will never work back as hard as Jose wants. I'd fear for any player that lacks legs and/or physicality to be honest. Could be a busy summer for you guys as I don't think this early appointment is a coincidence.

Can we change Paddy too?

It's time he was put out to pasture.

Louis Van Gaal talking to the media with the FA Cup right next to him

I bet he wants to sleep with it tonight as well

Could be good hopefully then for Mensah, as those traits that you mention, describe him and his strengths, so I would be very happy if we saw more of him next season.

Van Gaal will have known about the arrangement beforehand, as has been said. The main thing for him was leaving with a trophy, and he's done that. He can now leave, and retire, knowing he's won some silverware, and Man United's first trophy since Ferguson retired.

People won't be looking back at this season in ten years and remember it as the day those nasty journalists spoiled LvG's big day, it'll be remembered for Man United winning a trophy, and possibly it being LvG's last game for Man United, and possibly football in general.

So do you think Mata will leave this summer and what about Rashford, will he play for Man United again or will go out on loan or something

I guess this is how the Americans feel just as Trump is about to be announced as their President!

They won't really remember how they got to this point, just that it actually happened.

I guess we are in for a ride and a half now with José in charge.

Mata left Chelsea because he wasn't deemed as effective as Oscar and hazard and mourinho didn't want to play all 3. United don't have a hazard and an Oscar so I don't think it's a given that mata is our the door.

I hope Rashford stays, it might possibly be the end for Wilson and Fletcher however, in terms of strikers.

My family support Man U. but they absolutely loath Mourinho. They won't be supporting them while Mourinho's their manager.

Then they aren't actually fans. Just because you don't like who the manager is doesn't mean you stop supporting your club.

Obviously huge fans then, I'm sure their support will be missed immensely

Why on earth would you imagine that this was Rashford's last game for United?

I must confess, before the match I was fairly nonchalant thinking that at least if we lost LVG would definitely be on the next plane to the Netherlands. But when Mata equalised, I dared to dream and as for the winning goal - the roof almost came off!

It's not ideal that the news about Mourinho is leaked today but to be honest, I'm not fussed. LVG must have known that his days were numbered unless Woodward totally bottled it. For me this is all just a good day's work.

He was Chelsea's Player Of The Year for the previous two seasons for a reason - he was excellent going forward. Oscar worked back tirelessly and that's why he got the role. I'd be staggered if Mata makes it to September at United.

Of all the comparisons possible I never thought Mourinho becoming Man United manager could be equated to Donald Trump.

I like Mourinho, he can play dirty but he does what's necessary to win. There's nothing I find likeable about the other guy.

None of this is true.
