Charlton questions if Mourinho right fit for Man Utd

Manchester United legend and director Sir Bobby Charlton doesn't believe Jose Mourinho is the right man to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson.

He told the Observer: "I would hate for anyone to take this the wrong way, but I don't see him here. Who am I to say? He's got a talent. Maybe if he ever came here the philosophy of youth football might never be the same again.

"I wouldn't be doing my job as a director right if I didn't sometimes wonder what will happen when Alex is gone, but I've decided I can't see it ever changing. It'll be a while yet."
