| Lucas Moura has been a longstanding target for Manchester United |
NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you the latest news and gossip coming out of Old Trafford.
Louis van Gaal stormed out of his pre-match press conference this afternoon.
The Red Devils boss has faced growing calls to stand down, and sacked Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is widely expected to assume the hot seat.
Van Gaal, who is thought to have two games to salvage the job, attacked the media for the strain the reports are putting on his family before walking out.
"What do you think happens with my wife or my kids? Or with my grandchildren? Or with the fans of Manchester United? Or my friends? What do you think?," Van Gaal said.
"They have called me a lot of times and also Arsene Wenger is saying something about that. So you think that I want to talk with the media now?"
Ander Herrera and Juan Mata could both leave Manchester United if Van Gaal remains in charge, according to reports.
Herrera and Mata have both failed to win favour under Van Gaal, albeit Mata has started more games but not in his favoured position of playmaker.
United's players have already expressed their disgruntlement over Van Gaal's tactics, and according to the Times, Mata and Herrera could leave if Van Gaal survives the remainder of the season.

The Red Devils have been cleared to sign Lucas Moura, according to reports.
Moura has attracted interest from United after failing to get regular first-team football under Laurent Blanc at Paris Saint-Germain, according to reports.
The Daily Telegraph claim PSG will listen to offers and United are likely to table an opening offer of £22million.
United previously tried to sign Moura three years ago.
