Manchester United Players Reportedly Unhappy After Jose Mourinho Criticism

in #manchester7 years ago


Manchester United's players reportedly believe manager Jose Mourinho went too far in his criticism of them after their Premier League defeat to Huddersfield Town on Saturday.

The Red Devils were a long way short of their best in the 2-1 loss against the promoted team. After the match, Mourinho tore into the United stars, saying "I don't even remember a friendly match when our attitude was so poor," per BBC Sport.

According to David McDonnell of the Daily Mirror, those scathing words have not been received well by the dressing room.

"There are simmering tensions behind the scenes, with some players feeling Mourinho went too far in his public criticism of them, followed by his subsequent brooding on the training pitch the following day," he noted. "Mourinho's demand that his players show more commitment came less than a week after he himself appeared to flirt with big-spending Paris Saint-Germain."

McDonnell reported Mourinho was "aloof and cold" in training the day after the loss.

Additionally, according to Neil Custis and Richard Moriarty of The Sun, the United boss "flipped" at his players after the match and "flung his coat to the floor."

Scott Patterson of the Republik of Mancunia suggested Mourinho had been a little hypocritical in calling out his players' attitude:
