Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Louis van Gaal has conceded that Manchester United will not win the Premier League this season, just four matches into the campaign.
Van Gaal made the claim at a fan event at United's Old Trafford cricket ground on Wednesday night, in which he claimed that the club would finish third or second this season.
United are currently in fifth place, five points off leaders Manchester City.
Van Gaal was asked what where he thought United would finish, and he gave his prediction, although he did add that his club would compete in all of the cup competitions.
Van Gaal's United contract expires at the end of the 2016/17 season, and he has previously said that he will retire then.
The Dutchman also confirmed at the event that assistant Ryan Giggs will be his successor at United when he calls it a day.
