"If you look at Manchester United's statistics, until three weeks ago, we had scored the same number of goals as Manchester City had and we were the second-highest goalscoring team in the league. Many times the tags in football are needed from a journalistic standpoint but they don't reflect the truth, not in Mourinho's case. Last year, we won three titles having the majority of possession in most of the games and creating more chances than our opponents. It's impossible to win three titles in a given season being defensive, it's just impossible."
"You just have to see Mourinho's track record. Before he arrived at United, he had achieved a record of points at Real Madrid, and if I'm not mistaken the club that had scored then the most number of goals. He then went to Chelsea and won the league with a big point difference over their nearest rivals and also with a high goalscoring ratio. In football we all tend to put labels. At that time, there was and still is that duality between Real Madrid and Barcelona and we had to put a tag and he got the defensive one and the other the offensive one. People thought that but that is just not the case."
