Jose Mourinho has often cut a glum figure at Old Trafford this season

United are now set to appoint a caretaker boss for the remainder of the season as they search for their FOURTH permanent coach since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson 2013.And Parker, who has been highly critical of Mourinho throughout his tenure, says the club made a big mistake by hiring the Special One in the first place.Speaking exclusively to talkSPORT, the former England defender said: He wasnt right. I said it before he got the job, I said it quite early when he got into the job and Im saying it nowHe was never right for Manchester United on and off the pitch. I think everyone saw that in the end with the way he was, the way he conducted himself.It always worried me about how they were going to play under Mourinho.If you sat and watched every team he managed, it was destructive football. He would match teams, he wouldnt try and beat them and create, because he wasnt a creative manager, he was a destructive manager.

Jose Mourinho's record as Manchester United manager

Played: 144Won: 84Drew: 31Lost: 29Win percentage: 58.33Trophies: EFL Cup (2017); Europa League (2017)He was never going to play any football Manchester United fans – and I mean real Manchester United fans – wanted to see.People can come out and say, hes a winner, but what does that mean?Does that mean United were just going to try and win trophies no matter how, and have no swagger and no style? Lose everything theyve built up over the years? Football isnt like that anymore and were seeing that with whats happening at Manchester City, we may be seeing something begin at Liverpool and we may be seeing something begin at Tottenham, too, once they get into their new stadium, because theyre building very well with young players.Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is among the early favourites for the job with bookmakers following Mourinhos departure.2

Pochettino has been tipped to replace Mourinho in the Man United hotseat

And Parker says the Spurs boss would be a big improvement on Mourinho.He added: Pochettino? The man improves players and that hasnt happened at Manchester United.Listen back to Paul Parker on talkSPORT in full above!
