Jose Mourinho Jokingly Reveals the Main Reason He Isn't Worried About Being Sacked by Man Utd

Jose Mourinho has insisted that he doesn't fear for his job at Manchester United after a disappointing start to the season, joking that it would cost his Old Trafford paymasters too much to get rid of him.

The Portuguese manager signed a new contract worth around £15m per year towards the end of last season, leaving him in a reasonably secure position at the club with two years left to run on the deal.

Amid all the talk of Manchester United relieving the pressure on Mourinho by winning at Burnley, Ed Woodward banners on planes, Paul Pogba missing a penalty and Marcus Rashford's red card, very little attention has been paid to Romelu Lukaku wearing Christmas pants in September.
