‘Fuming’ Jose Mourinho determined to find Man United mole

Matt Stead

Jose Mourinho is determined to find out who leaked his Manchester United team on the morning of their game against Chelsea.

United almost secured a famous victory against Mourinho’s former side on Saturday, coming from behind to lead through Anthony Martial’s double.

But Ross Barkley scored a last-gasp equaliser to preserve Chelsea’s unbeaten start and condemn United to “an awful result”.

To be honest, we can’t do it justice here, so go ahead and read 16 Conclusions.

Mourinho himself is busying launching ‘an internal investigation’ however, according to the Daily Mail. He is ‘fuming’ that his starting XI was leaked on social media on the morning of the game.

The Portuguese ‘wants to know how the information got out’, as ‘only players and backroom staff were privy to the starting line-up’ when it was revealed on Friday.

His team was also leaked before the West Ham game, which went rather worse.

It is said that the ‘prior knowledge’ of Juan Mata starting gave Chelsea an ‘insight’ into United’s gameplan. Good job he didn’t put Scott McTominay at centre-half again.
