Conclusion

As a neutral, I believe United should retain Mourinho, for now. Yes, the playing style is not per United traditions. And there may be tensions between him and the players.
But the issues transcend his status at the club. The board/Glazers are still present and would be if he left.
Moreover, who is readily available should he go?
It's not enough as merely removing him, and everything enhancing. It needs to follow a defined process and structure.
The seeds of United's current difficulties stem from the latter Sir Alex period. The club didn't prepare for his departure, and the seeds sown then are now bearing fruit.
This should stand as a lesson for all clubs - that proper planning must exist in all cases and scenarios. The period 2007-2013 saw some of United's greatest ever triumphs. But it also saw a lack of succession planning and contingency formulation, which has seen United fall from its prior place of grace.
