Manchester United have secured the signature of Jose Mourinho after months of speculation, according to reports this afternoon.
While the decision has been met with some scepticism, many feel he is the manager that will bring back the good times to United.

In his post Ferdinand says: "The first thing he needs to do is install 'winning mentality' back into the club. Get this ingredient back into the players but also the people that work inside the club day to day. Give them back that belief so it is breathing throughout the club again, which is so important. But doing the above in the Manchester United way is equally as important."
Jose Mourinho appointed Manchester United manager on Matt Busby's 107th birthday.

2 - Jose Mourinho lost just two of his 20 meetings with Manchester United as opposition manager (W9 D9). Imminent.

Wow! I'm shocked Jose Mourinho has been announced as @ManUtd manager. I just didn't see it coming as nothing has been written about it. 😉

Can’t believe Mourinho just sent Martial out on loan to Middlesbrough. #MOURINHOOUT #MUFC
