Derby County boss Frank Lampard believes Jose Mourinho can turn things around at Manchester United.

Mourinho has overseen United's worst start to a season in 29 years but Lampard is confident his ex-Chelsea boss while turn it around, with Valencia and Newcastle up next.

"Everyone knows my feelings for Jose Mourinho as a manager," Lampard told reporters "It is a tough moment. It is a moment that we will all have, that I will have at times, that every manager has.

"I have heard all his interviews lately. He is a big boy. He will get about doing his job. Of course I feel for him. They are not winning games and they want to be - it is Manchester United.

"In terms of players, it can be difficult. You need buy-in from your players and you need sometimes the right message to be coming out. I thought that as a player and I think it even more as a manager.

"And you need complete work rate on the pitch. I am not talking about individuals here, I am saying that is what you need."
