Liverpool legend Carragher slams Mourinho: You\'re Man Utd manager. Stop moaning!

Published on: 02 May 2017

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has dismissed complaints from Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho over their heavy schedule.

United played nine games in April as they reached the latter stages of the Europa League along with their success in the Premier League, a run Mourinho described as 'inhuman'.

But Carragher told Sky Sports: "When you are at United, you have players who are used to playing that amount of games. There are seven or eight teams in Europe who have played eight or nine games in April.

"If you are Manchester United manager, I think you want to play nine games in April, because it shows you are still in competitions, still going for things.

"Whenever I started the season at Liverpool, my mentality was to play 40 to 50 games, because it meant I was playing every week and was being successful.

"I don't see anything out of the ordinary in the number of games they have played. This year they could play 63 games, last year they played 59 so not a massive difference. He is complaining, but that should be the norm going forward for United."
