Peter Schmeichel confident Jose Mourinho can bring good times back to Manchester United

"I'm looking forward to this next period and hopefully he will give all fans belief that all is well and they are going in the right direction."

Former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel is confident Jose Mourinho can bring the good times back to Old Trafford as he closes in on a deal to take over as manager.

Louis van Gaal was sacked on Monday despite leading the club to the FA Cup and it is understood the finer details of a contract for Mourinho are being worked on.
