Good riddance, Jose! Toxic Mourinho will not be missed at Man United

Jose Mourinho has finally been sacked by Man Utd after a disastrous start to the season. It was an inevitable decision having turned the club toxic

Manchester United finally ran out of patience with Jose Mourinho and it’s not a moment too soon. The excuses, the friction, the dire football and most importantly the results all became too much to bear.

It’s clear now that whatever it was which made Mourinho such a compelling success has dimmed. He could be missing his long-time No. 2 Rui Faria or struggling to adapt to a new generation of player who don’t react to his surly management style.
