Mourinho warns: “At United I needed time and I didn’t have it”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (47 years old) lives a situation at Manchester United that is familiar to José Mourinho (57). The Portuguese was successful in his early days, as after landing at Old Trafford in 2016, he captured the League Cup and the Europa League in his first season, while finishing second in the Premier League in his second campaign. However, A turbulent start to 2018-19 saw the club disband their services in December. The Norwegian replaced him and, despite continuous doubts about his continuity, the board is showing more patience that you had in the past and keep you in office.

The departure from Setúbal did not completely straighten the course of the Red Devils, despite flashes and occasional streaks, while Mou has Tottenham at the head of the Premier at the moment. Perhaps within United they feel that there was precipitation with the now coach Spur. At least that’s how the protagonist feels. “I’m at a stage in my career where we don’t have much time to be successful. The first team that I felt needed time and I didn’t have it was Manchester United.”, recognized the coach in the preview of Liverpool-Tottenham this Wednesday (9:00 p.m., DAZN).

Mourinho, despite having accepted what happened, continues to think that there was excessive haste in his dismissal: “I felt that I left him in the middle of the process, but I learned very early to respect the decisions and I did that at United. We did what we did, what had to be done, and we moved on. I am happy, they are, and we have a great relationship, something I’m very proud to say. When I leave the teams, I have a great relationship with everyone and United is one more example of that. “

Warning for Solskjaer? As we say, rumors about the continuity of Solskjaer do not stop as soon as the team clicks, as when being eliminated from the Champions League. But at Old Trafford the trigger of the dismissal has not been pulled, although Mauricio Pochettino has come to be contacted in case of goodbye to the Norwegian. Since the departure of Alex Ferguson, patience has not accompanied the team’s bench. Red Devils and that may be the explanation for this change of mind with Ole.
