Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney has given his backing to manager Louis van Gaal amid intense speculation that the Dutchman will be sacked on Monday.
Van Gaal steered United to their first major trophy since Sir Alex Ferguson left the club with a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final yesterday, but reports emerged shortly afterwards that he would be replaced by Jose Mourinho.
The 64-year-old has since seemingly confirmed those reports, but speaking before Van Gaal's comments, Rooney suggested that questions over his future were "unfair" so soon after winning silverware.
"My knowledge about that is nothing at all. That's a question for Louis Van Gaal," he told reporters.
"I don't want to speak about Louis van Gaal leaving. He's still our manager and I think it's a bit unfair after we've just won the FA Cup to speak about him as if he isn't here.
"I think he's a good manager I'm grateful he's helped us win this FA Cup."
Van Gaal has now won trophies in four different countries following previous successes in Netherlands, Spain and Germany.
