Mourinho explains why Manchester United may still have a disastrous season

Jose Mourinho has explained why it is still possible for Manchester United to end up outside the top-four in the Premier League. 

 Mourinho’s debut season at Old Trafford, but the Red Devils have flown out of the blocks this season and are sitting joint-top of the division with Manchester City.

 Mourinho’s men, though, are yet to face a side in the top half of the table and the Portuguese believes the strength of the league could still mean his team finish the season outside of the Champions League places. He told Portuguese outlet Record: ‘Nothing happened yet. Last year the season started much harder and ended very well, this year it started very well and we don’t know how it will end.

‘In another league it could be said that a team that starts with seven wins and a draw would almost mean the title.
