During the press conference before tomorrow's UEFA Europa League match against Luhansk's "Zorya," waiting for Jose Mourinho, he spoke about the poor quality of the opponents' pitch.
He mentioned that the "Manchester United" players will need to at least achieve a draw, otherwise they may lose out to Rotterdam's "Feyenoord" in the next stage.
"The flight was good, thank you. Good and calm. The hotel is good, the stadium is good, the pitch is bad, but it is very cold, and I know that having a good pitch is difficult," said Mourinho.
"The ground is hard, it is frozen. UEFA knows the conditions and everyone knows that the conditions in Ukraine and Eastern Europe are tougher in the middle of December, so if UEFA cares, they should change the match time so that the last ones are not played in the middle of December."
"The stadium is beautiful, it is new, it is taken care of perfectly. The pitch is new, they are trying, but it is very difficult and people cannot perform miracles."
In a video shared by the English club, players can be seen training wearing as warm as possible in Odessa ahead of Thursday's game v Zorya Luhansk. #MUFC
