Mourinho: We Will Bounce Back In The Second Round

By Joshua Walters

Jose Mourinho has predicted a Manchester United renaissance against the Premier League's top four clubs in the second round of the 2018/19 Premier League season.

Mourinho's Red Devils slipped to a 3-1 defeat to sworn rivals Liverpool at Anfield, compounding to earlier defeats to Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspurs.

The Portuguese trainer explained, after the game, that the difficulty was because they played the clubs away from home

"I know we lost some other matches, but we played Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City away - probably the three best teams apart from Tottenham." 

"But, we play away and I think we have more possibility to get more points in the second half of the season than the first."
