Jose Mourinho: 'Manchester United are not happy with current situation'

Jose Mourinho says that Manchester United are unhappy with their current situation prior to their trip to Chelsea on Sunday.

Jose Mourinho has revealed that "inside information" tells him that Manchester United are far from happy with their current plight ahead of their trip to Chelsea this weekend.

The Premier League champions have struggled to adapt to life under David Moyes, after Sir Alex Ferguson retired at the end of last season. United were dumped out of the FA Cup earlier this month and trail in the two-legged League Cup semi-final to Sunderland as well as sitting seventh in the league table.

"My feeling, which is based on years of communicating with Sir Alex and some inside information, is Man United are not happy, but they are calm," Mourinho told the Daily Mail. "They trust David. David trusts them. I don't think David is under pressure.

"The pressure is something virtual. It is something that comes from the media as a consequence of not having the best results. The most important thing in all of this is not the pressure that comes from the outside, it's the reality of the inside. The manager is calm and they are thinking this is our manager for the next two, three, four, five years.

"So they're all together and are going to rebuild again a big team. The bad results will finish. They will get back on track, although it is probably too late to win the league because they're too many points behind the leader."

Chelsea host Manchester United at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
