Brazil legend Pele issues Manchester United warning over Jose Mourinho
PELE has warned Manchester United fans not expect Jose Mourinho alone to win games at Old Trafford.
Pele believes Mourinho will need the right players around him to succeed at Old Trafford
United finally unveiled Mourinho as their new manager last week after he was sacked by Chelsea in December.
He replaced Louis van Gaal, who was dismissed last Monday despite having just lifted the FA Cup.
The Dutchman's exit from the Champions League before Christmas and failure to qualify for next season's competition were said to be the deciding factors in his dismissal.
"I wish good luck for him."
Express Sport understands Mourinho will be given as much as £200million to spend overhauling the squad.
But he is also expected to cut away some dead wood from the squad and has reportedly already compiled a six-man shortlist headed by Juan Mata of players to sell.
