And reports began to circulate in the press claiming the players were already beginning to turn on the Special One.

Mourinho has told his flops they are all fighting for their Old Trafford futures - with £89million man Paul Pogba the only one safe.

The ex-Chelsea boss believes the hangover from Louis van Gaal's methods is still affecting his squad -  particularly the full-backs.

But that did not spare him from savaging Luke Shaw in the press following the Hornets match even though the 21-year-old was playing through an injury.

Neville's issue was with a report from The Telegraph with a source suggesting Mourinho's criticism was far more visceral than Alex Ferguson's.

He tweeted: "Leaks already after one bad week! Embarrassing!!"

The ex-England coach then claimed he could tell the information came from inside the dressing room when asked if he was taking the report as gospel.

He added: "Absolutely not . However I can sense a piece that's had info passed on and one that's speculative!"

Mourinho has also been accused of “losing the plot” by Christophe Dugarry.

The former Barcelona striker said: “I get the feeling Mourinho’s last tactical success was that Champions League game between Inter Milan and Barcelona.
