Manchester Unitedexecutive vice-chairmanEd Woodward has told club shareholders the Red Devils are not about to make a rash decision regarding manager Jose Mourinho after a relatively poor start to the 2018-19 campaign. Per Goal’s Kris Voakes, Woodward urged shareholders to “look at the bigger picture:”
“As it’s easy to get caught up in the game-by-game fluctuations of our season, or even the relatively minor pieces of business and industry news, I would like to take this opportunity to take a step back and look at the bigger picture.
“We’re the biggest sports team in the world as measured by number of fans, and we know that’s a position that requires continued effort and investment to maintain. “Our board, our investors and everyone at the club are aligned with the fans on what we need to do on the pitch and that is to win trophies.
“That’s one of the reasons we hired Jose Mourinho, and we’ve already won three with him.”
