Manchester United hero Paul Ince has slammed his old club, claiming they’re a laughing stock.
“Other clubs and fans are having a field day at the minute, seeing what is happening at Man United. They’re becoming a laughing stock and falling behind,” Ince wrote in an exclusive column for Paddy Power News.
“Everything at Man United from top to bottom is in turmoil and it shows.
“Should Mourinho leave? No. Should Man United as a club get their house in order? Absolutely.
“That’s the whole lot, from the top down, Ed Woodward, Jose Mourinho, Paul Pogba, everything is a total mess.
“I can see now that fans are turning against Jose Mourinho and I can understand why.
“When you see Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham – they’re all playing the kind of football you expect from a Manchester United side.
“He is a proven manager but the style he’s playing at United doesn’t suit the club and never will.”
