Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has said Manchester United is not happy with David Moyes, but they are ready to give their coach more time to turn things around.
Mourinho, whose side host United at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, believes Moyes will be given the backing of Old Trafford bosses.
He claimed his feeling, which is based on years of communicating with Sir Alex Ferguson and some inside information.
United's 2-1 defeat by Swansea in the FA Cup was their fifth loss at home this season, while they have dropped to seventh place in the Premier League table, 11 points behind leaders Arsenal, Metro.co.uk reports.
Mourinho said he thinks Moyes is not under pressure, and added that the manager is calm and United is thinking that Moyes is their manager for the next two, three, four, five years.
