Man Utd officially makes decision about Mourinho and Zidane
The Old Trafford team recently made a final decision on the prospect of changing head coach.
Manager Jose Mourinho has been under huge pressure since ending last season without a trophy, and the problems have continued today with back-to-back Premier League defeats to Brighton & Hove Albion and Tottenham Hotspur.
In a press conference after the disastrous match with the team from London, the captain of Manchester United strongly condemned the reporters. He continuously mentioned his past achievements and asked those around him to respect him.

The tension at Old Trafford is clear, but according to the Mirror Sunday, executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is not being influenced by the club's owners (the Glazers) in the matter of sacking the Portuguese coach, because they think it is still too early to think about it.
Rumours of Mourinho being replaced by the legendary Zinedine Zidane have been circulating for some time now, and have only intensified since the disaster at the Theatre of Dreams earlier this week. Not to mention the news that the former Real Madrid boss is keeping an eye on the situation at Man Utd and is ready to join at any time.
However, sources from Mirror said that the Premier League runners-up's board do not consider Zidane as a prominent candidate to replace their current head coach."Jose is not on the brink of crisis yet. He has disappointed with results but can still turn it around.,"a source at United said.

"The mood in the dressing room remains very positive and Ed Woodward visited Carrington training ground last week. That means there is no bad news around Man Utd."Mirror quoted more.
So coach Mourinho is still "safe" and everything could change tonight if his students can defeat the home team Burnley, who are also in a real crisis with only 1 point after the first 3 rounds of the Premier League this season.
