"Manchester United" club strategist raises questions about players' motivation. According to the strategist, some players want it more than others.
There has long been a less than ideal atmosphere between the Portuguese and the club players. A poor start to the season highlighted the tension between the strategist and the players.
The weekend defeat to "West Ham" ensured the worst start for "Man United" in 29 years. Ahead of the Champions League match, the Portuguese talked about the lack of player motivation.
"I think some players fight more than others. It is everyone's responsibility, a good performance depends on many details. Luke Shaw mentioned that players need to try harder, but I don't agree, not only players need to try, the whole club needs to try - coaches, staff, and others.", explained the Portuguese.
When asked if there was a meeting between the strategist and club shareholder Edu Woodward, the strategist responded: "It's private, man. I don't ask who you talk to."
