LOUIS VAN GAAL has no fight left.
That is the view of former Newcastle striker Alan Shearer. |
| Alan Shearer believes Louis van Gaal has lost the fight at Manchester United |
United sit fifth in the table, six points behind fourth-placed Manchester City.
Recent reports suggest Van Gaal could be axed before the end of the month with Jose Mourinho widely tipped to take over.
And Shearer believes enough is enough, insisting that the Dutchman has lost the fight at the Old Trafford helm.
"I have admired Louis van Gaal's resilience during tough times over the last three months. He has defended his players and his own philosophy," Shearer wrote in his column for The Sun.
"He has also tried to convince anyone who will listen that problems within Manchester United are a mere media fantasy, despite the evidence - and I am afraid the evidence during Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Sunderland was damning.
"Afterwards I did not see a manager ready to fight. I did not see that same resilience. I saw a defeated man. I expected him to come out fighting, but there seems to be no fight left."
United play Midtjylland on Thursday night (6pm) in the Europa League.
