Swansea City manager Bob Bradley insists that Jose Mourinho is "too good" to be written off despite suffering a difficult start to life at Manchester United.

Swansea City manager Bob Bradley has insisted that Jose Mourinho is "too good" to be written off despite Manchester United's poor start to the season.

The Red Devils have won just one of their last seven Premier League games to leave them eighth in the table, already 10 points adrift of leaders Chelsea.

Mourinho was sacked by Chelsea after a poor start to last season too, but Bradley defended the Portuguese boss ahead of Sunday's Premier League meeting between the two sides.

"Do I think he's lost anything? No way, he's too good. I can relate to the fact he is under pressure – we are all under pressure, you have to accept it. It goes with the territory and the bigger the club, the bigger the spotlight," he told reporters.

"You can have things go your way then have a stretch where things go against you. Your ability to stay current and have a good way with everything that goes on around you, that's the test of being a football manager over a long period of time.

"He's been in the United States a lot with teams in the pre-season. In many of those situations I've had a chance to see his teams train. He's always been gracious in those moments."

United have lost on their last two visits to the Liberty Stadium.
