Manchester United transfer rumours and news: Juan Mata and Ander Herrera 'in revolt' against Louis van Gaal? 

 

Louis van Gaal is reportedly fearing a Spanish revolt after duo Juan Mata and Ander Herrera expressed their fears the Dutchman's methods may harm their chances of making Spain's Euro 2016 squad.

The Daily Mail report the pair were vocal as Wayne Rooney led a crisis meeting of the players following the Red Devils' poor run of form.
Discussions were apparently centred around Van Gaal's strict training methods and tactics used on matchdays.
The players believe, according to the report, that overtraining is contributing to United's lengthy injury list.

Mourinho eyeing Sneijder?

Target: Could Sneijder move to Old Trafford?

Jose Mourinho wants to sign Wesley Sneijder if he gets the Manchester United job, according to The Sun.

The former Chelsea boss continues to be linked with a move to Old Trafford, as pressure mounts on current boss Louis van Gaal.

Mourinho reportedly thinks Sneidjer could be the 'game-breaker' United need to get back in the title race, after a winless run of six games has seen them drop out of the top four.

Sneijder played a key role in Mourinho's Inter Milan team which won the treble in 2010.

Moura interest?

Interest: United are reportedly tracking Moura

Manchester United have reportedly joined the race to sign Paris Saint-Germain star Lucas Moura.

Buzzsport report the Red Devils are interested in the Brazilian winger, who is allegedly available for around £22million.

Liverpool have also been linked with a move for his services, with Moura struggling to hold down a regular first-team place.

PSG boss Laurent Blanc has been quoted as saying he is flattered in the interest in Moura from top clubs.

Rooney heads crisis meeting

Crisis: Rooney has told United's players to shape up

Wayne Rooney has led a rallying cry to save Manchester United ’s troubled season.

The United captain called a crisis summit after the club’s worst run of results in 17 years left boss Louis van Gaal under mounting pressure, writes Mirror Football's John Cross and David Maddock.

The Dutchman could even be axed if United lose at Stoke on Boxing Day but the players remain determined to turn results around with the fans increasingly unhappy.

Mirror Sport understands that Jose Mourinho has been asked not to consider any job offers without first informing United as Van Gaal is on the brink.

United fear Mourinho will get other offers if they do not move quickly.

Phil Neville backs Van Gaal

Backing: Van Gaal will turn it around, says Neville

Former Manchester United defender Phil Neville has backed Louis van Gaal to turn things around at Old Trafford, insisting he will bring success to the club.

The Dutchman remains under pressure to keep his job at the Theatre of Dreams, following a string of poor results, writes Mirror Football's James Whaling.

Saturday's defeat to Norwich was their third in succession, and means they are winless in six, a run which has seen them crash out of the Champions League at the group stage and drop out of the Premier League top four.

Speculation surround Van Gaal's future rumbles on, with axed Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho in the frame to take over.

However, Neville, who is assistant to brother Gary at Valencia, has backed him to get it right.
