Reports today suggest that Jose Mourinho could just takeover at Manchester United when Sir Alex finally decides to call it quits, well at least that is what Mourinho wants. What was my first thought when I heard this? Great news if you ask me! For a while now I have been racking my brain trying to think who could possibly replace Sir Alex. There will never be another Sir Alex so we can forget about finding someone of his caliber. So we need to find someone good enough and big enough to continue our legacy. Of all the ex-United players now in management, there is no one I can think of who is ready now to take cover at the helm at Old Trafford.

Being manager of Manchester United is not going to be easy especially after all Sir Alex has done for us. The person to take over has to be a born winner and someone capable of keeping the winning tradition going. Mourinho fits the bill perfectly.

No one can doubt the ability of Jose. His attitude and arrogance may stink at times but he is a winner which is all we can ask for. He will get the best out of every single player he puts onto the field. One only has to look at his CV: Winner at Porto, winner at Chelsea and winner at Inter. Everywhere he goes he wins, so why can’t he do the same for us?

We do not know exactly when Sir Alex is going to go. I have a gut feeling if we win the league this season he may just call it quits. If we win the Champions League then I am 100% sure he will say enough is enough. The question now will be, when will Mourinho want to leave Inter? I feel Jose has a point to prove in Italy and he wants to win the Champions League with them but surely if United come calling for him, he will have to walk away from Inter.

What do you think of Jose taking over from Sir Alex?
