Manchester United Manager Jose Mourinho met the media a few hours ago to preview Saturday’s match at Burnley. We have video of the media session for you here below via YouTube.
There were a whole host of topics covered in this news conference, including: the latest injury/fitness reports, up to the moment updates on the Alexis Sanchez-Henrikh Mkhitaryan transfer situation, his thoughts on what might be holding up the deal from reaching completion, his own future at the club, the resurgence of left back Luke Shaw and much much more.
Here’s the whole session, which runs about six minutes:
The biggest focus was of course on Sanchez/Mkhitaryan, but there is only so much he can really say on that right now. More than once he was asked to elaborate on it, and more than once he reiterated that there is only so much he can say as long as the Chilean remains an Arsenal player. So that conversation didn’t really go anywhere, because it can’t.
Thus the session itself wasn’t very long.
