Mourinho accused of 'acting like he was at Carlisle United, not Manchester United’

Former Red Devils defender Paul Parker claims the Portuguese has learned nothing from illustrious mentors, and proved as much when at Old Trafford

Jose Mourinho has been accused of “acting like he was at Carlisle United, not Manchester United” during an ill-fated stint at Old Trafford, with Paul Parker questioning his ways.

The Portuguese initially delivered on his remit upon taking the Red Devils’ reins, with three trophies secured in his debut campaign.

He then led his side to a runners-up finish in the Premier League, before history repeated itself and he failed to see out a third full season in a prominent coaching role.
