According to the “Daily Mail” report, Manchester United players and staff believe that if Manchester United lost to Burnley this Sunday, then coach Mourinho may be fired.
“The Post” quoted a source: “They said that Mu Shuai is going away. Some people think that if the team loses to Burnley on Sunday, he will leave. Some people think that Mourinho will not be in Manchester United. I have been waiting for September.”
“We have seen this before, and it feels the same. The club will say that they support Mourinho, but the same is true of Van Gaal. The players are already talking about the possibility of Zidane coaching.”
In public, Manchester United continues to support Mourinho, and Mourinho is unlikely to resign from a contract that gives up 15 million pounds a year.
The Post also said that Mu Shuai did not lose support from the locker room, but the morale of the team has been somewhat low in recent months. The Post noted that before the Spurs game, there were only eight players on the bus from the Carrington training base to the Laurie Hotel, and the rest of the players went to the hotel on their own.
