According to Metro, Jose Mourinho reflects on his time at Manchester United, revealing that some players he sought to remove from the club years ago are still featuring prominently in the first team.
Arriving in 2016, Mourinho enjoyed early success, securing the League Cup and Europa League titles in his debut season.
However, his second season ended without silverware, and by December 2018, he was dismissed, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer taking over.
During his tenure, Mourinho clashed with certain players, notably Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, and Luke Shaw, criticizing their character and behavior.
Mourinho's attempts to bring in his own transfer targets were thwarted by United's former chief executive, Ed Woodward, including pursuits of players like Ivan Perisic and Harry Maguire, who eventually joined the club later.
Reflecting on his time at United, Mourinho expressed his frustration with the lack of support and trust from the club's hierarchy, contrasting it with the current situation under Erik ten Hag.
While he left the club with a sense of sadness, Mourinho believes that time will reveal the truth about his tenure.
He also pointed out that some players he wished to remove from the squad years ago are still present, suggesting a disconnect between his vision and the club's decisions.
Despite his grievances, Mourinho expresses his desire for Manchester United to succeed, emphasizing his passion for the game and his former club's fortunes.
