It’s fair to say things aren’t going brilliantly for Jose Mourinho at Manchester United.
The Red Devils failed to score against a Burnley side they were expected by many to beat comfortably on Saturday, with Sean Dyche’s boys holding firm despite the hosts having 37 shots.
The result means United have only one win in their last Premier League games and have resultantly slipped to eighth, eight points off the summit.
Big-name players like Wayne Rooney, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and £89m world-record signing Paul Pogba have all drawn criticism for their inconsistent or ineffective performances so far this season, although some people are starting to point their finger at the manager.
Mourinho was brought to United under the remit he would restore them to the top of the English game and challenge for silverware. He was certainly given the money to do so, having spent over £150m in the summer.
But things haven’t worked out as planned and that is partly down to some of Mourinho’s actions. We take a look at five mistakes he's made since taking the Old Trafford helm.
FORMATIONS
While things have improved since Wayne Rooney left the side, there has been a lot of problems fitting Mourinho's new charges into the starting lineup.
Pogba's attacking instincts were neutered when he was part of a double-pivot - although he gets forward more when he plays in a three-man midfield - and he's failed to live up to his reputation as a result.
The Portuguese has yet to find a role for new signing Henrikh Mkhitaryan, while Ibrahimovic has preferred to drop deep rather than lead the line. Perhaps Mourinho's insistence on a one-striker formation is holding United back.
NOT PUTTING FAITH IN YOUTH
Since breaking into the United first team in February, Marcus Rashford has arguably been United's best performer.
The 19-year-old has managed 12 goals in 31 matches in all competitions and has been one of the few United players to look like a genuine attacking threat.
Despite his form last season and for England in Euro 2016, Mourinho didn't seem convinced, and it took until the youngster scored a late winner against Hull for him to earn a starting place under the Portuguese.
In order to accommodate Ibrahimovic, Rashford has often found himself on the wing where he can't make an impact, with United struggling for goals as a result.
CRITICISING PLAYERS IN PUBLIC
One of the things Mourinho was always given credit for in his first trophy-laden spell with Chelsea was the way he protected his players.
The Portuguese would always deflect media attention from them with his charismatic ways, while Ibrahimovic lavished praise on his manager from their time together at Inter.
At United things seemed to be different - instead of parking the bus, he's been throwing players under it.
A number of experts took particular exception to his criticism of Luke Shaw after the Watford game and it appears it isn't helping his players' confidence.
ALIENATING SCHWEINSTEIGER
One of Mourinho's first actions as United manager was to make it clear Bastian Schweinsteiger was surplus to requirements.
The German had struggled with injuries and form in the season prior and arguably wouldn't have been part of the first team anyway, but Mourinho went one step further and forced him to train with the reserves.
It was a humiliation for the World Cup winner and one that doesn't seem to have helped the club, particularly with United struggling in the central midfield department.
NOT GIVING CARRICK OR SCHNEIDERLIN A CHANCE
It's not just Schweinsteiger who hasn't been given a chance in the middle.
Weeks ago, United seemed in dire need of a holding midfield player, with fans screaming out for the inclusion of the experienced Michael Carrick.
Perhaps you can question whether players like Carrick and Schweinsteiger can handle 90 minutes week in, week out, but it begs the question: why not 26-year-old Morgan Schneiderlin?
The Frenchman hasn't been given a chance by Mourinho yet could form a partnership with countryman Pogba or the industrious Ander Herrera if given the chance.
