Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho slams Manchester City's sour grapes as he explains how he got the better of Pep Guardiola in signing Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal

Jose Mourinho used a comparison with oranges to accuse Manchester City of sour grapes over Alexis Sanchez on Thursday — then insisted the Chile star’s move to Old Trafford was not driven by money.

Sanchez could make his Manchester United debut in the FA Cup fourth round at Yeovil tonight after signing from Arsenal in a swap deal with Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

United are paying Sanchez a staggering £600,000 a week, including bonuses and image rights, after City claimed to have withdrawn from negotiations due to the player’s financial demands.
