Next Manchester United Manager Betting Tips PT 1

Now that the English Premier League season is finally finished and United were unable to secure a champions league position thanks to Manchester City pulling off a draw against Swansea on the final day of the season, the bookmakers seem to think that Louie van Gaal is on the way out and that United will be looking for a new manager to take over the side for the start of next season.

With the FA Cup still to play for, it remains to be seen whether van Gaal will be shown the door or not, because securing a trophy could be enough to stave off his ouster. The Dutchman still has a year remaining on his three-year contract with Manchester United and he may be there to see it out to the final day - a fact that surely would be helped if he was able to secure a trophy for the team at the end of the season.

Looming large over van Gaal is the shadow of Jose Mourinho, the former Chelsea manager. The bookmakers consider Mourinho to be a significant favorite to take over at Old Trafford and many actually assumed that he would be parachuted into the role last winter when a series of unfortunate defeats and lackluster performances - along with Rumours that van Gaal has lost the dressing room - began to circulate.

It certainly does appear that the odds are against van Gaal remaining with bookmakers pricing him at a 1/3 listing to be shown the door before the start of the next season. You can lock in a 9/4 price on van Gaal to be Manchester United's manager on the opening day of the 2016/2017 season.
