Former Real Madrid and Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has been speaking to Sportshour's Caroline Barker.

Arthur Clarke: Mourinho has only been successful with huge financial backing and the ability to buy the world's most expensive players.

Ben White: Anyone who can't see that United and Mourinho are the perfect fit is either blind or stupid, serial winners.

Tom: Can't wait for the next set of regional partners Ed's going to get us now, presumably Mordor and The Empire.

From the very start of his career in coaching Jose Mourinho has had this incredible self-belief, great knowledge and incredible attention to detail, but also this ability to think outside the box in a way some managers don't.

He's very willing to change things and adapt things in more complex ways when he has to and when it has to be simple, he will be simple.

I have talked to him a few times about tactics. This guy is on a different level completely. In one game he made a number of changes within a three-minute period that other managers would take three games to do.

He made radical changes, extreme changes that would not have even entered the mind of most managers. He not only did it, he did it with speed and they worked.

We are 12 years on from that moment - Mourinho hurtling down the Old Trafford touchline in celebration of his Porto side. 

Let's hear from Jose again: 

"To become Manchester United manager is a special honour in the game. It is a club known and admired throughout the world."

"There is a mystique and a romance about it which no other club can match."

Andy O: I would get rid of anything/anyone from the Sir Alex era and move forward.

Luke Parsons: If I was Jose, I'd cover my new pad in mirrors so I could see how good looking I am ALL THE TIME.

Proud Dad Danny S: Give Wenger a call just to say "Hi".

His argument? Jose Mourinho will have to honour Manchester United's traditions of playing attacking football and promoting players from the academy...

All of this leaves Ryan Giggs in a bit of a tricky situation of course.
