Default Re: [EPL] Manchester United 4-0 West Ham United



MOURINHO'S VERDICT ON UNITED'S 4-0 VICTORY

Jose Mourinho spoke to MUTV following Manchester United's 4-0 win over West Ham in the Premier League opener at Old Trafford...

Pleased with vibrant performance?
"I am but I remember every second of the game. I don't forget the ball hitting the bar at 2-0 and Diafra Sakho coming onto the pitch. In spite of speaking about Sakho at half-time, he was free and almost scored. If the score was 2-1, the last 20 minutes, instead of enjoying trying to score more goals, it would have been about not conceding the equaliser, for not losing two points. Yes, we did very good things but the thing I'm more pleased about is the confidence levels in the team and individually. The confidence to play good football."

New boys' impact
"First of all, they [Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic] are obviously top players. Secondly, they've played for years and years in the Premier League so it's nothing new for them - only the club and the colleagues, not even the manager as they worked with me before. I think they showed that stability really that Victor Lindelof, for example, doesn't have now as he's just arrived from a completely different environment."

Attacking intent
"I want to win matches and, obviously, the best way to win matches is to score more goals. Pre-match, I was asked about being more offensive than last season but we were offensive last season. It's about scoring goals. We had similar performances last season with less quality and not the same confidence levels but we had very attacking performances, where we couldn't score the goals to win."

Morale is high
"Pre-season was very good. We managed to have good preparation and that is obviously very, very important. Injured players are also coming back so the squad is in good shape."
