Man Utd have ‘big decision’ to make over Mourinho – Ferdinand fears worst season ever

The ex-England defender says that the Red Devils could be heading towards "one of their worst seasons ever"

Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand believes that the club “have big decisions” to make over the future of manager Jose Mourinho.

The Red Devils have made their worst start to a Premier League season ever, and the slowest in England’s top flight since 1989-90, with a 3-1 defeat to West Ham on Saturday the latest blow to the club’s credibility.

It was a result that came in the aftermath of a week that saw United dumped out of the Carabao Cup by Championship side Derby, while the Portuguese’s spat with Paul Pogba continued with the World Cup winner being publicly stripped of the vice captaincy.
