'Mourinho's demeanour may be fake'

By Daily Sports on August 1, 2018

Jose Mourinho's current downbeat demeanour at Manchester United may be exaggerated for the media, says Clinton Morrison.

The United boss has vented his frustration on a wide range of topics during the club's pre-season tour of America - ranging from a lack of transfer activity to some of his squad returning late from the World Cup - while also singling out players including Antonio Valencia and Anthony Martial for criticism.

"As Lee Grant said, and I know Granty, he would be telling the truth, it looks like from the outside it is not a happy camp but from the inside it might be a very happy camp.

"He's been very frustrated, Jose Mourinho. Over the last few years, it has gotten worse and worse. He looks like he hardly wants to speak to the media."

Morrison says United possess outstanding talent and has downplayed the team's defensive fragility.

"They have got talented players at Manchester United, do not forget that," he said. "Paul Pogba was outstanding at the World Cup, so was Romelu Lukaku. Jesse Lingard had a very good World Cup as well.

"Alexis Sanchez has had six months now to adjust at United, they have Marcus Rashford too. The list goes on and on. (Sky Sports)
