What José Mourinho Told His Friends Ahead Of Manchester United Sacking Him

José Mourinho confided with his close friends before he was sacked as Manchester United boss.
The Red Devils dismissed the Special One after his side lost 3-1 to Liverpool in December, but the 56-year-old Portuguese manager was well aware that the United uppers were ready to swing the axe on his time at Old Trafford.
According to the Daily Mail, the former Chelsea and Real Madrid manager was defiant that he would not quit the club after the loss to the Reds.
“I’m done after this,” he said, before adding: “But I’m not quitting.”
Ole Gunnar Solskjær replaced Mourinho as caretaker manager until the end of the season, but the Red Devils have not lost in the Premier League under his tenure.
United hosted Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday, with the match ending in a 0-0 draw and featured its fair share of injuries.
Despite the draw, United legend Gary Neville believes that the 45-year-old Norwegian will be appointed the club’s next permanent manager.
“I don’t think you can give it to someone else, otherwise there would be mutiny,” he told Sky Sports (via the Metro).
“The fans were singing for him. I think it’s very close now — I can’t see the club going away from it. We learnt a lot about the mood of the club in that second half.
“Three months ago they were singing ‘attack, attack, attack’ and today they were singing Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s name for all of the second half.
“The mood has completely transformed — the atmosphere was one of the best I’ve seen at Old Trafford for years and it was 0-0!
“If Manchester United had scored, it would have been incredible.”
