Twitter Reacts as Norwich Beat Manchester United to Pile Pressure on Van Gaal

The pressure on Louis van Gaal intensified on Saturday as Manchester United succumbed to a 2-1 defeat at home to Norwich City.

"

Van Gaal has been a massive failure, overall. One dull limp to 4th and nothing else. Two dreadful appointments since Fergie.

Louis Van Gaal was appointed to calibrate Man Utd. Instead he's taking them backwards. Time is up. He has to go.

LVG will do well to survive this. Feels like a moment. 2-0 down at home to Norwich...

Coming just days after Jose Mourinho became available after his sacking by Chelsea, rumours of the Special One making his way to Old Trafford stepped up a gear:

"

Only a matter of time until Jose Mourinho is Manchester United's new manager

"

Manchester United are losing at home to Norwich. Mourinho for United anyone?

"

Man Utd. A once great club, lost, stumbling, with players uninspired by/hostile to the manager. Mourinho will fit right in.

"

Manchester Utd play Chelsea on Dec 28. Mourinho's 1st game in charge of Chelsea was against United. Some things seem almost too symmetrical.

Fans of both sides were singing the name of one manager, and it wasn't Van Gaal:
