Louis van Gaal tells journalist 'you will be sacked tomorrow' in furious rant after Chelsea draw

Louis van Gaal lost his cool with a journalist during Manchester United's 1-1 draw at Chelsea on Sunday.

Diego Costa's late leveller ensured the spoils would be shared at Stamford Bridge following Jesse Lingard's stunning turn and shot earlier in the second half.

Despite not coming away with the victory, Van Gaal called his side's display 'sparkling' as their pickup in form continued.

The Dutchman was asked if he thought the improved performances were important to convince the owners he still has a lot to offer 'while they are trying to replace' him.

Van Gaal did not take to it kindly.

"You have spoken with Ed Woodward?" he asked.

"Why do the club have to deny it? You are creating stories. You haven't spoken with Ed Woodward or the Glazers and you are inventing the story. Then I have to answer that question."

"I don't answer this question and I shall repeat myself every week. I have to say that you are getting the sack tomorrow. What is your name? Then I can announce the name also."
