Goodbye from Van Gaal? Man Utd manager waves to travelling fans

The Dutchman saw his side beaten 2-0 by Stoke City
at the Britannia Stadium and, with his future the
subject of hot debate, gestures to supporters on his
way off the pitchIs this the end of the road for Louis
van Gaal? The Manchester United manager is
understood to be on the brink of losing his job after
his side suffered their fourth consecutive Premier
League defeat, losing 2-0 to Stoke City on Boxing Day.
The Dutchman has been adamant that he is the man
to turn around the Red Devils' fortunes but
frustration among supporters continues to grow and
some bookmakers are already paying out on him
being the next top-flight boss to lose his job.
As he walked off the pitch at the end of United's loss
to the Potters, TV cameras caught Van Gaal taking a
moment to wave to his side's traveling supporters -
was it a wave goodbye or an acknowledgement of a
poor performance?
