I think he’ll be gone before Christmas.”Sharpe is also of the opinion that Mourinho's   public questioning of high-profile figures  has done little to build collective harmony around Old Trafford.The ex-England international added: “I do not think Mourinho has handled the [Paul] Pogba situation very well.“It was the same with Luke Shaw before that. Any views should be kept in-house and not appear in the press.  “Mourinho talks about class [he accused Manchester City of lacking it by making their Amazon TV series] but that is the sign of class in my eyes.“Every player who played for Sir Alex Ferguson – whether they liked  him or not – respected him because you knew that any grievances would  not be aired in the press.”United were expected to mount a serious challenge for the Premier  League title this season, but Sharpe admits the early indications are  that they could be left scrapping it out for a top-four finish.“I think United fans accepted second last year because they were behind a City side breaking loads of records,” he said.  “But, if they are down in third and fourth and playing rubbish, are  the fans and the board, in particular, still going to put up with that?  I’m not so sure.”</blockquote>
