Andrew Grills: Agree 100% with the sacking of LVG, just not the way it was handled or the man they have chosen to replace him.

Phil Beck: Several concerns with Mourinho, biggest of which is no commitment to youth. What happens to Rashford, Lingard and Fosu-Mensah?

Helen Davies: I am definitely not a Manchester United fan but think the way they went about LVGs dismissal wrong.
