Manchester United and Liverpool's double red club, 1-4, was defeated by their opponents. Although Mourinho said that his team is dominated by young players, the gap between them and Liverpool is still very obvious. After a series of poor performances in warm-up matches, the prospect of Manchester United, the runner-up in the Premier League last season, also became pessimistic.
After the game, Manchester United coach Jose Mourinho also talked about the team's defeat. He doesn't think this is the real level of Manchester United. Due to holidays and injuries, as many as 13 of Manchester United's first-team players did not appear in the game against Liverpool. Most of these absent players are the main players of Manchester United, which is also an important reason for their team's defeat.
At the same time, Mourinho also used this defeat to continue to put pressure on Manchester United management. Mourinho said that there is still a big gap between Manchester United and Liverpool in the transfer market this summer. The Premier League transfer window will close in 10 days, and Mourinho said that the players on his list of signings to Manchester United's top management have not joined the team. Mourinho listed five or six signings for Manchester United a few months ago, but these players never appeared in Manchester United.
This summer, Manchester United brought in Fred, Dallot and Lee Grant. Obviously, this is not all Mourinho's signing needs. He hopes that when the transfer window closes, he can also bring in two players to supplement the team's strength. However, judging from the current situation, Mourinho is likely to start the new season disappointed, because Manchester United's top management seems indifferent to the team's transfer.
