Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that he does not fear being dismissed from the head coach position with the Old Trafford side.
The Portuguese tactician came under fire after the team lost back-to-back games versus Brighton & Hove Albion and Tottenham Hotspur and there were talks that he could be dismissed with another successive defeat.
However, the claim swiftly evaporated after the Red Devils' 2-0 triumph over Burnley and shortly after the game, Mourinho has stressed that he does not fear being sacked from the job.
Only in January, Mourinho was offered a fresh extension to keep him at United until 2020 at the least and the Portuguese has cited that the club could pay a huge release fee, if they are to sack him in this period.
He told La Repubblica: "If they sent me away, do you have any idea how much money they would have to give me?! They say I'm in danger, but I don't think so."
Manchester United go into the international break with two wins from their opening four matches and this sees them make up the 10th position in the standings.
