Everyone will be talking about Jose Mourinho kicking a bottle but it must not mask Manchester United’s poor start to the season. We normally see this kind of behaviour from Mourinho after three years at a club — not six months. It is clearly having a negative effect. This is United’s worst start to a campaign since 1990-1991 and they have not won at home in the league since September despite splashing out £160million on players.
