REPORT: Manchester United players aren’t exactly enthralled with Jose Mourinho appointment

Jose Mourinho's imminent arrival at Old Trafford won't be greeted with open arms, according to reports.

If you've been wondering why Red Devils have been in such a joyous mood today, it's because Louis van Gaal's reign of terror has come to an end. The front-runner to replace him is the Special One himself, Jose Mourinho, who was sacked from Chelsea earlier this season after one of their worst campaigns in years. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/734691905439707136?lang=en Appointing a polarising figure  such as Mourinho was always going to receive backlash, and a report from Sportsmail claims that a number of senior players are unconvinced Mourinho is the right man for the gig. Sources claim a group of senior players have voiced their concerns over Mourinho to the club's big wigs with the main bugbear being that his no-frills, fundamentals-focused approach to tactics is too similar to that of LVG. This would back-up earlier reports that players had privately expressed their desire to have a more attack-minded in charge of the team to the board. There are also concerns over the long-term impact the Portuguese gaffer can have at the club. Mourinho doesn't tend to stay put for too long and has never had a spell at the helm of a club last more than four years.
