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.

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.
