The best news of the month for Manchester United were certainly Jose Mourinho's arrival to the club as the new manager. Along with the manager surely a higher fighting spirit will come, also a resolve that Louis Van Gaal's side didn't have. These are attributes that every team in the world would kill for, according to many former players of the team, Mourinho's arrival can only be positive for the club. Former United player Phil Neville spoke to the club's web site and discussed the Portuguese manager's arrival.
"I'm excited for the season ahead. With Jose, win, lose or draw, it's going to be an adventure and a journey. Maybe the United fans need that now. They need lifting, they need a spark and someone who will keep them on the edge all the time. This club keeps you on the edge; you don't know whether it's going to go one way or the other in games. That's what was so great about Sir Alex Ferguson.
"Whatever ride Jose takes the United fans on, I think they'll enjoy it. This club has always had that mystique and specialness about it where you're not quite sure where you're going, but you're going to aim for the best. He's the best manager and his record tells you he gets results and wins championships, and it's probably about time United started winning championships again."
