A lack of enthusiasm in the Europa League
Having previously claimed that Manchester United’s title chances will be hurt by their Europa League participation, you have to wonder what kind of message this sent out to his Red Devils players.
No Manchester United supporter wants to be in the Europa League with the Champions League the aim but in the Red Devils’ two performances so far, supporters have been feeling left underwhelmed.
For long stretches of play against both Feyenoord and Zorya Luhansk, United supporters were sent to sleep given their teams’ apparent lack of enthusiasm and ideas.
While Mourinho has switched around his team somewhat for their European encounters, you’d still expect so much more from the players on show so it appears to be something of an attitude problem at the moment.
