Man United’s Form Not Good Enough, Mourinho admits

Jose Mourinho acknowledged on Friday that Manchester United’s current run of form is unacceptable as he battles to turn around their season .

The 55-year-old Portuguese is under enormous pressure, with United in their worst position after seven league matches since 1989 — they are 10th, nine points adrift of the top two Manchester City and Liverpool — and a public dispute with star player Paul Pogba has sewn discord in the dressing room .

His side are looking to end a run of four home matches without a win in their worst run at Old Trafford for 29 seasons when they host Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday .

Mourinho is adamant United will improve on their current league position of 10th but he accepted their form at present is not good enough.

“Yes, I accept,” he said, although he refused to answer when asked if he could assure the fans he was doing everything he could to improve their form.
