Jose Mourinho sends message to his lovers as Manchester United progress to Champions League last 16
Jose Mourinho sent out a message to his lovers as he stuck two fingers up at his critics after Manchester United booked their place in the Champions League last 16 on Tuesday night.The Red Devils put in another lacklustre performance at Old Trafford but kept going until the end, as Marouane Fellainis injury-time goal sealed a 1-0 win over Young Boys and sealed their progression.4

Mourinho has hit the headlines, again, for his reaction to Man United’s injury-time winner against Young Boys

However, rather than focus on the teams effort, all eyes were on Mourinho following the game after his over-the-top celebration of the goal, as he picked up a cage full of water bottles and hurled it to the floor.Uniteds display – which saw them spurn a number of great goalscoring chances – was slammed by pundits, with club legends Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes particularly scathing, while Gary Lineker fumed at Mourinhos frustrated reaction to an early Marcus Rashford miss.4

But Mourinho hit back at his critics following the game, pointing out his remarkable record in Europe as he took another team to the knock-out stages.“Let me send a message to my lovers and say that I played Champions League for 14 years and I qualified 14 times,” he said following the game.“And the two years where I didn’t play Champions League, I won the Europa League twice, so in 16 years, 14 times I qualify and twice I play Europa League and I won.“Just a little curiosity for my lovers and the lovers of the stats.”Mourinho refused to react to United great Scholes’ comment that his side had put in a ‘terrible’ display, with the midfielder adding that they would have been ‘battered’ had they faced a ‘decent team’.4

But he cut down his other high-profile critics in general when asked about his animated touchline behaviour when Rashford faltered in front of goal.The manager failed to disguise his irritation following the England starlets fifth-minute miss, turning to his bench and the Old Trafford crowd and shaking his head in disgust.Lineker said he would have been absolutely livid had, as a player, he saw his manager react in such a way, while Ferdinand questioned: What kind of message of confidence does that send to Rashford?Mourinho responded: “Can myself or another manager have a reaction of frustration? I would invite that people to sit on the bench as managers.“But I think maybe it’s better to have lots of holidays in Barbados and go to the television screen and touch the electronic dummies.4

Scholes has been a vocal critic of Mourinho this season

“I think it’s much, much, much more comfortable than being on the touchline like we managers we are.“I am pretty sure that a proper football manager would never criticise another one for emotional reactions on the touchline because it’s deja vu for them.“For the ones that have a nice life, it’s different.”
