Jose Mourinho appears to have aimed a sly dig at Chelsea fans following Manchester United’s 1-0 win over Manchester City in the fourth round of the EFL Cup.
The Red Devils booked their spot in the quarter-finals of the competition with a 1-0 win at Old Trafford, courtesy of Juan Mata’s second-half strike.
The result was a huge boost for Mourinho’s men who had been thrashed 4-0 by Chelsea on Sunday at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League.
Speaking after the game, Mourinho praised United’s fans, insisting the strength of their support is something he has never experienced in his career thus far.
“The spirit of the supporters is phenomenal here, I never had people like these ones,” he told Sky Sports.
“The love the people have for the club is bigger than bad results and bigger than three bad seasons.”
United return to Premier League action on Saturday as they welcome Burnley to Old Trafford. The Clarets are yet to pick up a single point away home in the league this season.
