Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has said that although he is impressed with their start to the new Premier League season, he wants to see how his team will react to going behind.
United have won their opening two games after repeat 4-0 wins over West Ham and Swansea and currently sit top of the table. But Mourinho would like his side to fall behind in the upcoming weeks, to discover if they can handle adversity.
“The thing I want to happen is for the team to be losing,” Mourinho is quoted as saying by Sky Sports.
“So I can see the way we react emotionally.
“At this moment, everything is going in our favour, but it is not always going to be a motorway. You can always find difficult journeys and road blocks, and we have to be ready for that.
“It has not happened so far but going a goal behind will be a different challenge and I want to see how these players try to change a result
“Let’s see how we are when we are in difficulties, when we need the last minutes to win matches.”
