'Three years of Instability': Rashford takes a jab at Mourinho?

in #socccer5 years ago


In a recent interview with the Times, Marcus Rashford took a direct jab at his former coach, Jose Mourinho calling his time at Old Trafford "three years of instability.
Oooucchhh! that is below the belt.
Recall that Jose Mourinho was sacked in December 2018 after a dismal performance during that season with the Red Devils failing to reach the finals and even make any impact despite the amounts made available to secure players.
The 21-year-old forward also took time to praise his new coach, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who took over from Mourinho on an interim basis before being confirmed on a full-time basis following a sensational start in his new role.
Also, Ole has started the season well by signing Daniel James, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire while, selling off Marouane Fellaini, Ander Herrera and Romelu Lukaku.

In his word,

‘When a manager gets a pre-season, that’s where they make changes and the whole team is 100 per cent changed, especially off the ball.'
‘He [Solskjaer] has brought stability. In the past three years, you were never sure about anything. Now we have stability.
'Everyone’s in a good mood, a good place. It’s a completely different environment to what it has been, it feels back like normal. We really want to test ourselves now against the best in the league.’- Source.

My Thoughts.

I think that statement was kinda harsh and shouldn't have been made because, during Mourinho's stint, he Rashford did get a goo playing time and also did all he could to add value.
Mourinho did start out well before things didn't look good but that doesn't mean he was a bad coach.

Do you think Mourinho was a bad coach?
Will Ole Gunnar Solskjaer do well this season?
Who is a better coach between Mourinho and Solskjaer?
