“Mourinho is a changed personality from the charismatic one that first came over in 2004. He is picking silly, personal squabbles. Is it disastrous for Manchester United at the moment? No. But is thiswhat Mourinho’s remit was, to come in and finish behind City and not push for major trophies? He is rattled. He looks across the city, and the style of football they and Liverpool play. This is a guywho first came on to the scene and was regarded as a genius. Now he is looking outdated in the way his team plays and the way other teams play.”
