@manunitedtransfer: José Mourinho: “Manchester United sacked me. They paid for that decision for years.” 🗣️ “Yes they made the decision to sack me. I didn't walk away. At the time, people wanted to make it look like I was the entire problem, but football is never that simple. Yes, results were not good enough. We were 6th and far behind Liverpool, and I accept my responsibility. But there were problems inside the club that went much deeper than results. There were players who no longer trusted the manager, players who behaved differently depending on whether they were playing or not, and an atmosphere where you could feel the fear and paranoia around the dressing room. My relationship with Paul Pogba became a daily story. I removed him as vice-captain because I had my reasons, and suddenly everything became Mourinho against Pogba. Martial and Luke Shaw were also young players I challenged publicly because I expected more from them. Maybe I could have handled some things differently. I am not afraid to admit that. But the club decided that removing me was the solution. Then what happened? Managers came and went. Players came and went. Huge money was spent, but the same problems continued. That is why I sometimes smile when people tell me Manchester United's problems started with José Mourinho. No. They didn't. United sacked me, but they didn't sack the problems - and they suffered for that decision for years. Now i see Michael Carrick has the chance to change everything. He knows the club, he knows the pressure and, most importantly, he understands what Manchester United is supposed to be. I hope he succeeds. Because when Manchester United are strong, English football is better.” #Mufc
