    Shohidur Rahman: I really don't know how much worse the United board want it to get before they even consider sacking Van Gaal

    Bob: Manchester United fans eh! You booed Moyes out the door and cheered his replacement. Karma!

    Arun Sharma: We can forget about a top 4 finish, the way Leicester and Spurs are on fire. LVG should take voluntary retirement.

    Opeyemi Faseyitan: Results and performances don't even hurt anymore.

    Andy Everts: Painfull, Lethargic, Lacklustre, Inspirationless, Pathetic, Clueless, Visionless, Poor and Slow all over!! 

    Varun Sharma: Even when we went down, we couldn't string 2 passes to attack. Absolutely rattled by that goal. Very poor defending.

    Mufc Believer: I don't even get mad anymore when we lose. At least I know it increases the chances of LVG getting sacked.

  5. Watford do the treble!published at 17:04 Greenwich Mean Time 23 January 2016

    Watford 2-1 Newcastle

    Craig Cathcart's goal for Watford's second was enough to hold off against Newcastle. The Hornets have now defeated Steve McClaren's side by a one-goal margin in three encounters this season in all competitions.

  6. 'We overcame fears'published at 17:02

    Sunderland 1-1 Bournemouth

    Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce: "After their goal went in, there were 20 minutes where we hung on, but we stopped them scoring, which we haven't done recently. We've gained a result from going a goal behind, and that shows a bit of character from the players. They overcame their fears and came back strongly.

    "It's a precious point. We've showed a lot of nerve to come through our bad spell and if we continue like that we're going to be fine."

    Man Utd 0-1 Southampton

    Southampton goalscorer Charlie Austin: "It does not get any better than that.

    "It was my second touch, It was a case of right place right time. To get my debut goal I am delighted. I am happy for the lads they put in a great effort before I came on. They defended superbly from back to front. Our back five were superb.

    "Our aim is a top 10 finish, get to where we did last season, that is three wins on the bounce and hopefully the run will continue."

    "This is worse than when David Moyes was at the club in terms of fans' reaction. Van Gaal, the players will all feel this. The big question is how does he get past this? It will be a difficult week. It is not a pleasant time for United."

    Manchester United had one shot on target today - a speculative, never-going-to-go-in effort from 40 yards by Daley Blind early doors.

    Leicester City

    Leicester City's Danny Drinkwater: "It couldn't have gone much better - three points and a goal. The boss' influence has been massive. The gaffer has helped all the players and brought in some quality. The lads will work their socks off for whoever is in charge."

    Jamie Vardy: "We have a never say die attitude. We press as a team and we got the three points. We take every game as it comes, that is all we can do."
