#2 Jose Mourinho is a shadow of his former self
The message was crystal clear for Manchester United as the referee blew the final whistle and put them out of their misery. Jose Mourinho and his team must forget about the title and focus on their way for a Champions League spot. This defeat leaves them 12 points behind their local rivals and they are as close to the relegation zone as they are to Manchester City.
This was Jose Mourinho's 4th league defeat of the season and they are the only team in the top 10 with a negative goal difference. Jose Mourinho's teams are usually rock solid but United are leaking more goals than they have scored this season. It seems Jose Mourinho's famous '3rd season blues' are back and kicking.
Jose Mourinho always complained about City's massive finance regarding transfers but despite spending themselves, United are still miles behind. He asked whether his team can match City next time around after United delivered City their only home loss last season but the truth is they are far behind than ever.
Jose Mourinho hailed City's games before the derby as 'friendly fixtures' but the truth is unless he and his team does something magnificent in the rest of the season, Jose will find himself without a club.
