Manchester United played out a draw against newly-promoted side Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday and now stands at seventh place in the Premier League table behind Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, Watford, Tottenham and Arsenal.
It was not before long until the Wolves equalized with a goal from Joao Moutinho at the start of the second half.
The Portuguese manager has since expressed his disappointment at his team’s performance, but not before praising the Wolves for their attitude in the game.
Speaking of his opponents in his post-match press conference, the Manchester United manager said: “Wolves, by the way they faced the game, I think they deserve it. They play like I like to play, which is like the World Cup final. That is the attitude I like my teams to have in every match. We didn’t have that. This is something you learn when you are a kid in the academy. You don’t need experiences at the highest level to learn that. It is a basic law of football.”
Mourinho then went on to slate his players for how the game turned out saying, “I was expecting more from my attacking players. There was not enough creativity, movement or dynamism. We made it quite easy for them to cope with our supremacy in last 20 minutes. Overall we don’t deserve more than this.”
Twitter has since exploded with reactions to his comments:
