The news of a Jose’s exit continues with the camp one of quietest in the league after the opening day.

Reaching back beyond the first fixture – there has been a number of unhappy reports coming from the Old Trafford side. First the drama surround young players and potential world-class athletes, Marcos Rashford and Anthony Martial.

It then filtered through the side and reached the World Cup winner, Paul Pogba. There were and still are, many rumours involving the Frenchman and a move away from Jose. Besides the bad, the motivational moves were Marouane Fellaini resigning with the club after a standoff (I promise you while writing that, I tried not to laugh). Including in this, the arrival of midfielder Fred.

It’s been a testing trial for the players and managers, and I thought ahead of last weekend’s curtain raiser, Jose adopted the perfect attitude in his body language and what he had to say before they kicked off.

How the pre-match interview went down…

Jose was asked to comment on the season and refused to. He then proceeded to justify his reasons for doing so, and asked if he could then rather be questioned about the match ahead. Which in all fairness, was the best thing to do.

After being questioned about the match, Jose doubled up on his brilliance and gave the perfect reply on why a United win against Leicester City was so important to him and the lads. It would help lift the spirits of all at the Theatre of Dreams. The club was flat, their opponents buzzing. A need for a moral boast was vital.

This provided enough evidence, the club is undergoing some in-house problems. And you know you have to mention – this is what the Portuguese manager has been notorious for at many clubs.

Recent reports will not make Jose happy

As we approach the second week of the campaign, transfer news obviously die out all while talks of manager sackings grow. It’s the only thing that’s immortal throughout a season.

It is no secret many to almost all, are unhappy with the way things are going at United. Their best players are rumoured to want to leave, while their future gifts feel neglected. It’s a difficult time for the Manchester side, who let’s face it, are watching their neighbours leave them behind.

But it will still take many moons before the Blues become as big a club as the Reds of Manchester. Anyway, back to the report at hand. Fresh reports emerged earlier today that all is not lost for United but might be for Mourinho after ESPN reported news from L’Equipe.

light. Trending. Maguire ready to commit to Leicester

Yes, the Frenchman will be welcomed with his recent success, which some of the best moments in world football. How this will help the camp? Nobody knows. But you could always bet on such reports to surface when there’s trouble in the jungle. It’s too early to judge whether or not United will challenge for anything.

Jose might not be bringing you the best show, but his show get’s their awards normally.
