United are currently on their worst run of form in 26 years after being knocked out of the Champions League and are placed fifth in the Premier League table and fans are clamouring for the head of manager Van Gaal.  

"Right now, Van Gaal is the man. We should just support him and stick to his philosophy. The question is to finish on a high and then think about the next season.

Top-four league finish is the target and Van Gaal can achieve that," Saha told mid-day on the sidelines of IloveUnitedIndia, a fan-based event at the Reliance Jio Gardens, Bandra Kurla Complex.
