LvG is a man under humongous pressure as Man Utd fell to a shock defeat at home against Norwich. After a sudden slump in form, many United aficionados want him vacate the Theatre of Dreams hotseat.
In a poll conducted by Manchester United fanzine, more than 60 percent think the Dutchman should be handed the sack, while 30 percent think that he should be relieved off his duties at the end of the season. Only a meagre 7 percent believe that LvG should continue at United's helm until his contract expires in the summer of 2017.
Red Devils are playing atrocious football, have not won for five games and last week were banished from the Champions League. Things have gone so wrong for Old Trafford crew that even lowly Norwich City took the piss out of United this week at Old Trafford.
However, thankfully, winter is coming and, with it, so is the January transfer window. We believe that the Dutchman should target these 5 players if he wishes to save his job and redeem United's stuttering performances.

5. PAUL POGBA
Paul Pogba is one of the most coveted players in world football right now. At the age of just 22, he has achieved so many feats and is considered indispensable by the Italian outfit. He was heavily linked with a transfer to Manchester last summer, but the move failed to materialize. However if Van Gaal decides to trigger the clause for the highly-rated Juventus midfielder in the winter window, a player of his class could be a real difference-maker at Old Trafford.

4. ANTOINE GRIEZMANN
It is no longer a surprise that Manchester United are in dire need of a quality striker to bolster their front line. Wayne Rooney has been an utter flop this season while the Dutchman Depay seems to be in no hurry to adjust to English football.
On the other hand, since his move from Real Sociedad since last summer, Griezmann has really flourished to become the crown jewel of Vicente Calderon under the guidance of Diego Simeone. One of the most ferocious forwards in European football, he could be the man to lift LvG's United as title contenders this season. However, Old Trafford crew should be ready to shower their coffers if he wishes to acquire the French superstar. According to reports in Spain, Simeone has planted €80 million price tag on Atletico's blonde bombshell.

1. RAPHAEL VARANE
A world class defender with youth on his side, the 22-year-old French defender has flowered to become the central pillar in Real Madrid defense. Varane could inject real strength and steel in United back line which they desperately need. However, Los Blancos don't seem keen enough to part ways with Varane, and Van Gaal would have to make a very attractive deal to lure him to Old Trafford.
