A day after sharing his first post (showing a fancy pen resting atop of his new United contract), Mourinho has shared this.

Hazard, who was named the 2015 PFA player of the year, struggled to produce his best form last term and was made one of the scapegoats for Chelsea’s poor league performances which led to Mourinho’s sacking. He started with Copa del Rey triumph in the first season and won the La Liga title in the next, but left the club without fulfilling the target of “the Decima” in three seasons.
He was always going to be a good option when United didn’t qualify for the Champions League.
ROY KEANE HAS given his two cents’ worth on Manchester United’s new manager.
Since Alex Ferguson retired after winning the Premier League in 2013 the club have finished seventh, fourth and fifth, securing their only silverware in that time by winning this season’s FA Cup.
But Mourinho’s plans for Old Trafford should be making the summer interesting, as he’s already been linked with Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who played for him in Milan and who’s already announced he was leaving Paris St-Germain.
Regarding his Chelsea future, he added: “I’m happy”.
Concerns have been raised over whether Mourinho’s style of play will be too negative for United supporters, but Lampard does not buy into that argument.
Press Association Sport understands United’s most decorated player has an offer to stay on, although it is unclear what that role would be having been assistant to Van Gaal.
But other former players, including goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel and former captain Steve Bruce, believe he will revive the club’s fortunes.
United finally unveiled Mourinho as their new manager on Friday after months of speculation linking him with the job. “I wish him good luck”.
Carrick would like Mourinho to bring back that sort of success but accepts life will be very different under the 53-year-old next season.
In the dugout, Jose Mourinho. The Portuguese coach’s arrival could also impact heavily on Juan Mata, who was sold by Mourinho at Chelsea in 2014, while United’s one-paced central midfield containing the like of Bastian Schweinsteiger, Morgan Schneiderlin and Michael Carrick may need revamping. “He’ll make the necessary changes that are required and have an immediate impact”.
Kenyon, who worked for United from 1997 to 2003 before joining Chelsea, believes the Portuguese is “a flawless fit” for the Old Trafford club.

For Ryan to go away for a few years and be successful elsewhere, I really think that would put him in a better position.
