LONDON (Reuters) - Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho will be a "massive improvement" on predecessor Louis van Gaal, according to former Old Trafford boss Alex Ferguson. "I think United is the right kind of club for him and I think he'll do really well." Portuguese Mourinho was fired by Chelsea in December, seven months after winning the Premier League crown in his second spell at the London club. Mourinho was appointed in May, three years after Ferguson quit following 26 years in charge during which the club won 13 Premier League titles and two Champions Leagues. Van Gaal was sacked in May, just days after leading United to victory over Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final.
