DBasia.news – The pressure on Jose Mourinho and Man United players are relieved for a while following the 2-3 victory against Newcastle United. However, the four consecutive matches with no victory in all previous competition are still lingering.
Man United played inconsistently, worsen by the clash between Mourinho and Paul Pogba, also the board of directors related to the transfer market. Consequently, Man United are in the 8th rank of Premier League temporary standing by scoring 13 goals and conceded 14 goals, collecting 13 points, 7 points away from the leader, Manchester City.
The legends and former Man United players are concerned. Also the Switzerland 37-year-old striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who plays in Los Angeles (LA) Galaxy and once played with Man United in the 2016-2018 period.
According to Ibra who collaborated with Mourinho in Inter Milan and Man United, The Red Devils’ poor condition is not fully the fault of The Special One. The players must be responsible for the minor results this season.

“I think he has the ability to win (the Premier League). I think he is the right coach for that club, for that team. But a coach is only as good as his team, so it’s not like he can do miracles if the team is not good enough,” Ibra said quoted by Squawka.
“And I feel the team is good – it’s progressing, becoming better. This is his third year, the players know more and more the way he wants to play and how he wants it – so I believe, yes,” he insisted.
Ibra achieved two trophies with Mourinho in his first season with United (2016-2017), the League Cup and Europa League, and also the Community Shield trophy. After the great performance in that season, also left by the senior players and Rui Faria (Mourinho’s prominent assistant), Mourinho couldn’t achieve any trophy last season and hard to keep the consistency of the team this season.
