Jose Mourinho is back in trouble at Manchester United, with new reports that the Special One will be sacked if he fails to qualify the club for next season’s Champions League.
Jose’s United bosses are concerned after Sunday’s Manchester derby 3-1 humiliation left them 12 points off Premier League leaders City and seven points outside the top four.
The Portuguese’s position at the club has been under scrutiny for most of the season after his constant attacks on CEO Ed Woodward for not landing his transfer targets.

And it remains to be seen if they will back Jose in the January window after already spending £400m in his two-and-half seasons in charge at Old Trafford.
The UK-based Sun also reports that United chiefs want Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino to replace Mourinho.
