Jose Mourinho brands Jurgen Klopp and Arsene Wenger ‘unethical’

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho said he needs time to change the mentality of the players who were coached by his predecessor Louis van Gaal.

Arsenal boss Wenger called the proposed move for his fellow Frenchman insane, and Liverpool manager Klopp questioned the rationale behind spending such a big sum on one player.

Mourinho took over as United boss in May as successor to the sacked Van Gaal, under whom the Red Devils had been playing a widely-criticised style labelled by many as tiresome. “I’m happy with the effort that the club has, and is still putting in for us”.

On his own fitness and match sharpness, Schneiderlin said: “I’m feeling good”. It is not ethical.

“There are things that when I do [them], it is not ethical but when others do [that], nobody says that and everything is normal”. I do not speak about the others.

“The others, it’s their problem they can do what they want”.

“He’s a player you can build your team around for the next 10 years – that’s how good I think he is”.

“We have six changes substitutions, not three, so that gives me the chance to give minutes to some people, a chance to play with some players who I know can not have the condition to play for 90 minutes”.

“Normally, next week, we will have our squad closed”. This is a profile of our market. I am happy with my squad.

Whether that player is Paul Pogba remains to be seen.

United will face Premier League champions Leicester City in the Community Shield at Wembley on Sunday afternoon. Asked whether a big signing was imminent, he replied: “Yes”.

“We have 22 and we are going to have 23”, Mourinho told a news conference. As in the number of years left on his Old Trafford contract – now three but a figure player and agent have declared they are keen to see extended in the very near future. “When he left United every player was saying, ‘What the hell is going on?’ But he came to a decision to leave and sometimes these things happen in football”.

Real Madrid have signed only one player in Alvaro Morata- who they signed back from Juventus- while Manchester United have signed 3 players and they’re about to splash a 112 million Euros to sign their fourth player in Paul Pogba.

“But honestly, the market closes on August 31, but I think my club is trying to do everything to close our market before August 14”.
