Mourinho in ‘fear’ ahead of Man Utd’s new season

The Portuguese insists that he is unsure how the campaign is going to start, given the absence of a number of players Jose Mourinho admits he “fears” the start of the Premier League after a tumultuous preseason at Manchester United.
United have embarked on a tour of the United States, playing Club America, San Jose Earthquakes, AC Milan and Liverpool, but have won just the once so far, on penalties against the Serie A giants, and were thumped 4-1 by Jurgen Klopp’s men.
A clash with Real Madrid now looms.
Mourinho has been without several key players during the trip, including the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Marouane Fellaini, due to their World Cup exploits.
The Red Devils manager has subsequently had to dip into his youth team and back-up brigade, utilising such players as Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Axel Tuanzebe and Tahith Chong.
Having already criticised the make-up of his squad, Mourinho has now admitted that he is worried about the start of the campaign, with such little time to work with his firstteam stars.
