Louis van Gaal has accused Ed Woodward of undermining his authority by lining up Jose Mourinho to replace him while he was still manager of Manchester United. Van Gaal said: “I can imagine Woodward chooses Mourinho. Van Gaal bowed out as United manager by winning the FA Cup at Wembley, defeating Crystal Palace 2-1 after extra time. “To win the FA Cup when, for six months, the media has a noose around my neck, is my biggest achievement,” Van Gaal said. United came fifth in his second season, in which he also won the FA Cup.
