Pressure is mounting on Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho after his side dropped two more valuable points in the 0-0 draw with Burnley on Saturday.
Supporters have grown frustrated with Mourinho following an indifferent start to the campaign, with some calling for the Portuguese manager’s head after just 10 Premier League games.
The Red Devils slipped down to 8th in the table following the draw with Burnley, prompting many supporters to turn their back on Mourinho just over two months into his tenure.
One fan on Twitter wrote: “Enough is enough. Our start to the season has been worse than anything under Moyes and Van Gaal. Time to start protesting. #MourinhoOut”
He continued: “This is far worse than anything under Moyes or Van Gaal. Sack him now while we’ve still got a chance of making the top four.
We are looking to organise for a plane to fly a #MourinhoOut banner over Old Trafford. Any donations would be massively appreciated. Thanks.

“There will be a #MourinhoOut protest march outside Old Trafford before Wednesday night’s Manchester derby. Banners and flags are welcome.”
Whether or not the protest comes into fruition remains to be seen, but the Twitter page has gained over 7k followers in under a month, signalling the growing discontent at Old Trafford this season.
@GetMourinhoOut he is creating a toxic atmosphere – like at Chelsea and RM – I fear that it will go from bad to worse

The group is trying to raise money in order to fly a plane over Old Trafford, with the planned message said to be ‘Mourinho Out’.
Next up for United is a trip to south-Wales to face Swansea,that is before welcoming the visit of league-leaders Arsenal to Old Trafford one week later.
Mourinho was reported to being unhappy in Manchester this week, claiming that being away from his family and living out of a suitcase has been a ‘total disaster’.
