Following a week of poor results, which saw Manchester United lose to Manchester City, Feyenoord and Watford, Jose Mourinho has claimed people have been too quick to write him and the club off.

With Leicester at the weekend and a home draw against City in the League Cup to come, Mourinho is keen to look to the future.

It’s always good to be at home. I can understand completely the disappointment for the fans with the last week but I’m sure, back at home, they will be behind the team like they always are.

We had a bad week. I know that some football Einsteins, they tried to delete 16 years of my career and delete an unbelievable history of Manchester United Football Club and focus on a bad week and three bad results. But that’s the new football – it’s full of Einsteins.

United have already beaten Leicester this season when beating them 2-1 in the Community Shield in August. 138.com are offering 15/2 for a repeat of this scoreline.
