Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler backs Manchester United board in dispute with Jose Mourinho

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has expressed his backing of the Manchester United board who are reported to be at odds with manager Jose Mourinho over the club’s summer transfer dealings.

United endured a frustrating summer transfer window as they only brought in the likes of Diego Dalot, Lee Grant and Fred.

Out of all three new signings, Fred is the only one whom Red Devils fans can realistically expect to play a prominent role for the first team this season.

Many feel that the United squad is too short off quality to challenge for major silverware this season, particularly in defence.
