Jose Mourinho after yet another victorious match celebrated the points won and substitutions that had a crucial impact on the course of the game. Here are all the thoughts expressed by the Portuguese after the match against London's "West Ham". Congratulations to the football players "Congratulations to all the former players, because I understand that it is really difficult. I was a little disappointed with some mistakes and wrong decisions, but it's the result of fatigue and miracles don't happen. And with eleven players on the field it's harder, and with ten - even harder. Our task was not to concede a goal, which we did thanks to David De Gea, who saved us from Antonio's attack at a crucial moment. We also had tasks in ball movement, we had to find gaps and increase the pace of the game. We did these tasks quite well. It wasn't a phenomenal match, but the circumstances are very complex, so congratulations again to everyone." Ammunition on the bench "Nordway played the whole match against Leicester City and today he played 60 minutes against Lingard and Mkhitaryan, he had to run a lot chasing our attacking players. In the first half, he was up against me and I saw that it took a lot of effort from him. Slaven Bilic didn't have many defenders on his bench. His lineup only had offensive type players. So, I thought Marcus Rashford could be very useful, but not in the midfield, but playing on the flank." Vitally important David De Gea's game "That was a crucial moment (M. Antonio's opportunity). To be honest, we had a great opportunity in the first half, but they also had a good chance when Antonio was left alone against David. On the bench, they also had Andy Carroll and they were behind at that time, so I knew he would enter the field. At that moment, I thought it was time to send in a nominal defender and bring in Chris Smalling." Unexpected additional good news "How did Liverpool play? (Journalist: "2-2"). "I didn't know they played 2-2. So, we gained two points against Liverpool. I was more focused on the Chelsea and Tottenham game, as one or both of the teams would lose points. But now it turns out that Liverpool lost points, so in this round we collected more points than the team in second place, and in the next round we will play against them at Old Trafford. If we play together with 75,000 fans, we can win," - concluded J. Mourinho.
