Pedro, Gary Cahill, Eden Hazard and N'golo Kante all scored for the Blues as they raced to a commanding 4-0 victory at the bridge.
Fans are pundits are already piling pressure on the Self-styled Special One, whose side have only picked up five points from their last six games.
However, Ex-England international Garry Neville on his Sky Sports podcast reacted differently following his former side's loss to Chelsea.
"There will be a massive over-reaction to that game," Neville said. "Jose Mourinho will come under pressure. It will all be ramped up again with the derby on Wednesday.
"I'm quite relaxed, if I'm honest with you. "When you are a Manchester United fan, in 30 years, 50 years, you are going to have difficult times and you have to accept them when they come along and be mature about it.
Neville admitted that Mourinho has done much better than his last two predecessors in a particular aspect.
He said, ''There has been some poor management and poor recruitments.
"Players have been signed who are not Manchester United players and I'm not talking about talent - I'm talking about profile.
"Ultimately, I think Jose Mourinho is on the right tracks with his recruitment and they have to continue to move onwards.
"They need to move on from some of the previous, which is hard because some of them are on big contracts and you can't move them all on at once.
"I think at the moment, Manchester United fans should relax as it is just part of the 50, 60, 70 years of being a fan. It is not always going to be rosy."
Attention turns on Wednesday night to the EFL Cup clash between Mourinho's United and Guardiola's City.
