Apparently so. The news broke less than an hour after they won the FA cup, which was a tad unfair on Van Gaal I thought.

Disgusted to see how LVG was treated. Sack by the media 6 months ago and next week getting the sack by Man Utd despite having another year left and just won the cup for them. Hope LVG leave now and Mourinho jumping ship for PSG or Everton.

? Juice... It was broke by mourhino agent and only negotiations. as for lvg contract reports say his clause had a champions league qualifications in it and if that's the case he knew before the final.

It was reported by BBC so its surely happening, most probably by monday.

Sky broke the news after the agent stated. Was a verbal agreement... Best way imo, city imploded soon as they broke the news mid season

Bit unfair to LVG, at least give him the weekend to celebrate. Anyway, cant wait for Mourinho-Guardiola manchester derby.

Think he will have that...it only been mentioned negotiations at this stage but lvg will get a nice payoff...think guardiola has a job on his hands anyway, ageing team, yaya leaving and injury prone defender

YaYa leaving is no loss

Think if you had a replacement of his quality a season ago wouldn't be so bad. Tho been told he wasn't interested towards the end of the season?... Be interesting with the stones rumours

Lukaku will be gone not so sure with stones .not once as he mentioned leaving but money talks and it's no secret Jose is an admirer of stones .

Thing is, who will want to buy Lukaku at that price? He's still not champions league standard.

Thats the beautiful thing about it.. if no one oays what we want they dont get him.

Neil laughed at me when I said we would flog him for 50 to 55 mil

If he goes to the euros and puts himself in the shop windows by banging 4 or 5 in his price will go up more win win all round .

I'm really surprised that Plastic Boy hasn't appeared since Maureen's appointment. His activity here mirrors United's fortunes generally - when it's s**te, he's nowhere to be seen.

Jose Mourhino is a short term succesful manager, trophies is quick succession then two seasons it goes wrong and he's gone

We'll see what happens with Mourinho. He was the best option for the club right now. Think he's been angling for this for years and years, and despite his history, there is hope this could be his final destination. I don't think he is going to go on this 20 year run with the club. But if the marriage of convenience works out then Mourinho can be here for quite some time. He's now at the big rich club that offers control to the manager like no other of this scale.

Being Ferguson mark 2 is probably the egomaniac's wet dream, now he has his chance. Let's hope he doesn't blow it.

De bruyn

If City want Stones then knock yourselves out, I'm more worried United are going to try and get him instead of better alternatives, Marquinhos, Varane, Laporte etc

I think Marquinhos is overrated.
