Jose Mourinho goes on bringing down his squad by his recent comment.
Following Red Devils’ 3-1 defeat against Liverpool Mourinho aimed a fresh dig by announcing that at least six Liverpool stars are more ‘physical’ and ‘intense’ than his own players.
United are now 19 points behind Liverpool following their 3-1 defeat at Anfield on Sunday and are facing a huge battle to secure a top-four place this season.
But despite defending his squad and Mourinho has singled out Andrew Robertson, Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah, Georginio Wijnaldum, Naby Keita and Fabinho as players who United are unable to match when it comes to intensity.
"First of all, we have lots of problems related to physicality, we have lots of players that I could consider injury problems, because some of our players are always injured and is not with me, it was before me," Mourinho said after the game. "If you look to the stats with Mr Van Gaal and before Mr Van Gaal with David [Moyes], if you look to that period you have players that are permanently injured."
