Default Re: [EPL] Manchester United 4-0 Everton



MOURINHO REACTS TO UNITED 4 EVERTON 0

Jose Mourinho was a happy man on Sunday following Manchester United’s 4-0 win over Everton in the Premier League, which was secured by goals from Antonio Valencia, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Romelu Lukaku and Anthony Martial. This is what the manager said to MUTV and the media afterwards…

What did you think during the second half about a possible Everton comeback?
I always thought it would be 1-0 or 2-0, I ever thought about 1-1. The 2-0 came and then the third and fourth goal were just consequences of a team that was sad and another team that was happy. For me, the third and fourth goals were a little bit out of the context of the game.

Does Valencia always hit them like that in training?
Sometimes he does but it’s obviously not easy to score such an amazing goal. But sometimes he does.

After scoring one and setting up another, you must be pleased with Lukaku?
I would be pleased even without that work he does for the team, the way he opens spaces for us in the first half, I was more than pleased. One more goal, fantastic, one assist. But his overall work is more than that.

Why is the team scoring so many goals late on this season?
I think the Premier League is becoming very defensive, as I've told you before. I think many teams try to play with five at the back plus two or three in the middle. Sometimes four in the middle in some matches. And two teams try to match each other and play the same system and it's 0-0 or 1-0. Sometimes, when you have a little bit more space, you try in the last part of the game and they were losing 2-0 and they tried to come [at us] more and they gave us more spaces. I think it is down to that.

David De Gea kept his 100th United clean sheet and made some great saves today…
It is more difficult when you are sleeping. You don’t touch the ball for minutes and minutes and minutes and then have an important moment in the game. So it’s even more difficult and even more important.

Three wins at home, with 12 goals scored and none conceded. Are you happy with that form?
I’m happy. There is clearly a difference in relation to last season. We played better and we score more goals. Every match is a different match and the next one, against Burton, who come on the back of an important result against a good team like Fulham. It will be another difficult match for us.
