#Football News: Louis van Gaal Focused on FA Cup and not his Future

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal will leave it up to the club's board to decide whether he should remain at the club even if he wins the FA Cup.

The Red Devils reached the final of the competition on Saturday by beating Everton 2-1 at Wembley.
Van Gaal, 64, had been expected to leave at the end of the season - one year before his contract expires.

"I'm not looking at anything other than this competition," the Dutchman said when asked about his future.

"We live in the present. For the future, I discuss this with my board."

Progressing to a record-equalling 19th FA Cup final means Manchester United, fifth in the Premier League, have the chance to end a disappointing season with a trophy.

They had to work for their win against Everton, who finished strongly before Anthony Martial struck the injury-time winner.

Van Gaal felt his side should have won by a more comfortable margin, but he accused referee Anthony Taylor of making decisions that "changed the game".

After Marouane Fellaini's opener, Everton were awarded a penalty midway through the second half when Timothy Fosu-Mensah was adjudged to have fouled Ross Barkley.

David De Gea saved Romelu Lukaku's spot kick but the Toffees equalised through Chris Smalling's own goal.

"The referees are deciding the game and not the players any more," Van Gaal told BBC Sport.

"I think we deserved to go to the final. I think the referee... we didn't have any fouls in our benefit. He changed the match I think."

This tends to address some common sense issues raised by Senator Ben Murray-Bruce as he launches his book. Ben Murray-Bruce Dear Senator Ben Murray-Bruce, Greetings from the Village Town Crier. I must confess I admire your person so much. Your achievements in life are motivating. At times, you could be so articulate in addressing issues of public affairs. I loved you as a technocrat sir and I wish you never ventured into politics as it sacrificed your high repute statue. I have followed your common sense trend for a while via social media and I must admit I have found most of your views more comical rather than relevant. I am by no means a cynic but a conk realist. I have a profound feeling you must have excelled in 'beer parlour' arguments when you were much younger sir. Well, most people use social media to unwind while others use it for serious business and I wish you could boldly tell us where you stand. My idea of your common sense concept gives me ...

Arsenal v Bournemouth: Preview

Arsenal              vs  AFC Bournemouth The Gunners were left shocked by a ruthless Southampton on Boxing Day, but have the chance to bounce back against at the Emirates Stadium Petr Cech has urged Arsenal to turn the negative aspects of their humiliating defeat at Southampton into a positive when they host Bournemouth on Monday. Leicester City's defeat at Liverpool meant Arsene Wenger's side had the opportunity to go top of the Premier League with victory at St Mary's Stadium in Saturday's late kick-off. However, it was a day to forget for Arsenal as they fell to a surprise 4-0 defeat on the south coast, with Cuco Martina, a Shane Long double and Jose Fonte doing the damage. Goalkeeper Cech believes the result emphasises the unpredictability of the Premier League and is desperate to recover quickly when Eddie Howe's men visit the Emirates Stadium. "The positive thing is...
