With Manchester United struggling, fans have demanded a new coach to replace Mourinho. Jose Mourinho plays his players behind the ball, and attacks sparingly. Rival fans have termed his system 'parking the bus' since his Chelsea days.
After the 0-3 loss against Tottenham Hotspur, sections of the Man Utd fan base were infuriated, but one match later things turned around as Manchester United picked up 3 points.
If Manchester United want a new man in charge, they could appoint either of the following three managers.
#1 Zinedine Zidane
The Frenchman has done it all in his short managerial stint with Real Madrid. He won 3 Champions League trophies in a row for Los Blancos. When Zidane took over, Real Madrid was going through a crisis under Rafa Benitez.
With the arrival of Zidane in 2016, things turned around entirely, and Real Madrid shockingly finished second on the league table at the end of the season. That seemingly proves that no matter what the situation is, Zidane can turn it all around.
There are rumours of Zidane taking over at United, but nothing has been confirmed.
#2 Claudio Ranieri
This Italian man doesn't need introduction. He is the man behind the greatest underdog story ever told. He won the EPL with Leicester City against the likes of Chelsea, Spurs, United, Liverpool, etc.
He overcame staggering odds to win the EPL when no one thought he would. However it was disappointing how he got sacked. This could be a brilliant opportunity for United to get this man and turn things around since he is still unemployed.
#3 Oscar Tabarez
The 71-year old Uruguayan coach would be a fantastic replacement. Tabarez was a school teacher, and he ended up teaching the greatest football to the Uruguayan national team. After failing to qualify for the 2006 World Cup in Germany, the Uruguayans went on to finish fourth at the grandest stage in 2010.
They also won the Copa América in 2011, and have become one of the most excellent teams in South America over the last decade. The 71 year old has been in charge for 13 years – a mammoth 149 matches, and has been pivotal to the revival of Uruguayan football. He could turn things around for Manchester United, and end their title winning drought.
