7 Reasons Why Man Utd Will Run Away With The Premier League Title This Season
5. Jose Mourinho's Second Season
There is a remarkable stat surrounding manager Jose Mourinho: at all of the clubs he has managed, the second season in charge has produced the league title.
Spells with Porto, Chelsea, Inter, and Real Madrid have all provided this result, and the way United have started the season, it looks extremely likely it could happen again.
While this clearly doesn't point to being a definitive indicator that United will snatch the title this season, it bodes well if there is anything to be taken from an analytical point of view using this stat.
It’s an impressive statistic to have on your CV and one which Mourinho is surely aware of as he looks to guide the Red Devils to success.
If the Portuguese manager can make it five from five in terms of clubs to achieve this, then he will further cement his place as one of the greatest managers in the history of the game.
