Jose Mourinho might be a man on a mission this season with Manchester United but it seems that the Portuguese has not started the summer on the right note.
After finishing second in the Premier League table during the 2017-18 season, the United’s boss’ next big task was to get close to rivals Manchester City and possibly challenge them for the title.
And in order for that to happen, the boss needed to make a couple of high profile signings during the summer transfer window. But the Red Devils are currently miles away from that goals.
And this failure by the United hierarchy has turned Jose Mourinho a bit sour which is rubbing onto his whole squad.
According to a source, the United players are not happy with Jose Mourinho’s behaviour during the US Tour and many of them are wary of going into the wrong books of the manager.
A source told SportsMail: ‘Jose’s mood is dragging the whole tour down,’
‘He’s clearly not happy with Ed Woodward and everyone else is suffering because of it.’
And the harsh comments that the Portuguese spurted out about Anthony Martial and Antonio Valencia have not gone down too well with the United fans and some of them are asking the man to be sacked even before the new season has kicked off.
I take back what I said. This has all the hallmarks of the classic Jose Mourinho stance of being tired of the task at hand. He’ll never walk away, but he’s basically asking to be sacked. Like a kid knocking over a monopoly board when he doesn’t get Mayfair and Park Lane.

When Jose Mourinho rocked up at Chelsea in 2004 I thought the flash bastard was going to be the bollocks for the next 20+ years no matter where he ended up.
The games evolved and he hasn't, he's in denial about his own ability and the blokes like a fucking dementor.

Jose Mourinho is a horrible person to work under. Who in the right mind would want to play for that man. His words tonight are disgraceful and he should be ashamed. He’s embarrassed the club.

So transparent that José Mourinho is unhappy with the way Ed Woodward has conducted this transfer window. Obviously hasn’t signed the players he wants.
But that doesn’t mean it’s OK for Mourinho to rubbish the players he has for pre-season. Really not a good look.
