Former Manchester United skipper Gary Neville is not prepared to hit the panic button just yet.

Following the 4-0 defeat to Chelsea on Sunday, United have now managed only one win in their last six Premier League fixtures and currently sit seventh in the league table.

However, Neville thinks that United manager Jose Mourinho is the right man for the club and eventually will get things right at Old Trafford.

He said on Sky Sports: "There will be a massive over-reaction to the game, Jose Mourinho will come under huge pressure and it will be ramped up ahead of the derby on Wednesday. I am quite relaxed.

"When you are a Manchester United fan for 30 years, for 50 years, you are going to have difficult times like these and you have to accept when they come along and be mature about it.

"They have got a fantastic manager who has been proven in every league in Europe nearly, and they have to allow him to do his job methodically over the next two to three years, get it right.

"There has been some poor management, some poor recruitment decisions and there have been players signed who are not Manchester United players. I am not talking about talent, I am talking about profile.

"Pogba and (Zlatan) Ibrahimovic are more Manchester United players in my mind in terms of personality and the physical aspect, so I do think ultimately Mourinho is on the right track in terms of recruitment.

"They have got to continue to do that and they have got to move away some of the previous, which will be difficult because they are on big contracts, but he doesn't panic in the transfer market."
