Paul Merson believes that if Manchester United, who has not been able to find a better coach, dismisses Mourinho, it will result in very bad results.
Merson believes that Manchester United failed to sign a central defender this summer and their long-term problems with signings have now had a bad impact on the team, but the fourth time in five years to replace the coach is not Solutions to the problem.
In the first three rounds of the Premier League against Leicester City, Brighton and Tottenham in the new season, Manchester United has lost one-third of the losses last season. This is the worst start for Manchester United in the past 26 years.
Mourinho was very angry at the press conference after losing 0-3 to Tottenham at home on Monday night. In fact, since the preseason stage, the mood of this Portuguese coach has changed, and it has attracted a lot of attention and discussion.
However, Merson said: “If Mourinho leaves the team, then who is Manchester United going to coach? I think if they really want to fire Mourinho, then this will be a stupid decision. It will be a Very bad results. You have seen similar stories before, and I have seen how he was when he was dismissed by Chelsea. You know, Mourinho was fired the season after Chelsea won the league title. And now he has not helped Manchester United win the league title, so why is this not happening in Manchester United?
“Now he must have felt the pressure. He is not happy now, although he has always been a winner. He will be questioned and criticized.
“For Manchester United, this will be a very tough season. The problem now is not only that they have been thrown away from Manchester City, but also you can look at Liverpool, why they got all the players they want, and Manchester United can’t do it?
“Manchester United is one of the largest teams in the world, look at teams like Liverpool and Tottenham. Although their financial strength is not as strong as Manchester United, you can look at the players they introduced. I would like to ask these players now. Which of these can get into the current Liverpool? How did this happen? This is the problem.”
During the summer transfer window, Manchester United had offered quotations for Leicester City Central defender Maguire, and they were also interested in Tottenham’s central defender Ald Weierdel, but in the end they only signed in the summer window. Darot, Fred and substitute goalkeeper Lee Grant, while Liverpool spent nearly £200 million on signings during this period.
Merson went on to say: “I don’t think you have to talk about Manchester United’s 0-3 loss to Tottenham at home. I don’t want to tell Mourinho how to be a club head coach. How, he is much higher than me in coaching the team, but I think he needs support, and his support at Manchester United is not enough. You can see that they can always be easily scored by the opponent. .
“Do you remember if it was the last time Manchester United lost three goals in two consecutive games? You know, in the first season of Mourinho coaching Chelsea, they only lost 15 goals in total! He has already made it clear. Said that he needs to introduce a central defender, but the club did not do so, and now this team is paying for the problem of the defense.”
