Jose Mourinho is playing catch up at Manchester United as ‘they went back two years’ under Louis Van Gaal, says Paul Ince
Paul Ince has leapt to the defence of under pressure Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho, suggesting he has been playing catch up from Louis van Gaal’s time in charge of the club.Ince, who was a United player for six seasons between 1989 and 1995, claimed Mourinho’s men are way off title contention.United went down to a disappointing 2-1 defeat at Valencia on Wednesday night5

Given his own managerial experiences, Ince, now a television pundit, declined to add to the calls for Mourinho to leave Old Trafford.Instead he sympathised with the task he faces, even in his third season at United.“It’s tough on Mourinho, because he came in off the back of David Moyes and Van Gaal,” Ince said.“Under Van Gaal they went back big time, they went back two years.Ince believes Mourinho has been paying the price for Van Gaal’s time in charge of the club5

“While Man United were going back, Manchester City, Tottenham, Liverpool, they were going forwards.“He had to try to get them up to try just to compete with those teams and it’s been a tough time for him.”United, who won the 2016 FA Cup under Van Gaal, are sixth in the Premier League, eight points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, ahead of Sunday’s clash with leaders Liverpool at Anfield.Ince believes United’s main concern for now is Champions League qualification.

“Are we talking about a case where Man United might be struggling year after year to make the top four?” Ince added.“Only one team are going to win the league. Man United are not going to win the league.“They’ve got to try to win a cup and they’ve got to try to finish in the top four, which is going to be a tough ask for them.”Ince left Old Trafford for a two-year stint with Inter before returning to England with Liverpool.Ince won two Premier League titles in his six-year stay at Old Trafford5

The 51-year-old former England captain reckons Jurgen Klopp’s men are capable of ending their 29-year wait for the championship title this season. The Reds are top of the table, one point ahead of holders City, with 16 matches played.Ince added: “The fans hoped they could win the title, now Klopp’s got a team the fans believe can win the title. And that’s a big difference.“They’re blowing teams away. The more they keep playing this way and getting those results the more the belief will come.Ince believes another of his former club’s Liverpool could win the Premier League this season5

“The favourites are City, but Liverpool are right on their shoulders and they are competing.“They’ve got all the ingredients to be Premier League winners.”Ince is enjoying life as a pundit, but admits he yearns to return to management.Short stints with Blackburn and Blackpool, the last team he managed in the 2013/14 season, have not dented Ince’s confidence after successful spells with Macclesfield and MK Dons.Ince would like to return to management, saying it’s in his blood5

He added: “I’ve got something I enjoy doing the BBC and BT. It keeps me in the game, it gives me a bit of free time and it fits in well. Less stressful.“I have spoken to a few people and it’s just not been right.“But management’s in my blood. It will never go away and I’m still only 51. I’ve got plenty of time.”

Not only do stats back up Manchester City as title winners, they don’t even seem to think they over-performed by much

Two goals from Sadio Mane helped secure Liverpool's spot in the Champions League last eight with a 3-1 win against a flat Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena. The hosts arguably had the upper hand after the first leg finished goalless at Anfield but Mane's exquisite chip on 26 minutes put Jurgen Klopp's men in…
