Central defenders Harry Maguire and Yerry Mina have both been tied to transfers to Old Trafford but Mourinho is not hoping for two additions until Aug. 9.
"I'd like to have two other players," said United manager.

"This is not our team." Reinforcements, you mean players that I would like to buy, it's something else, but it's not my team. Is not even half of my team, or 30% of it.So do not look at that.
"Today we have four or five players who have died because they care about the club and try to give everything, even by risking themselves, because they do not want to let all the kids play alone against Milan, against Liverpool. For example, Eric Bailly was not going to play and when he saw that [Chris] Smalling was injured in the warm-up, he decided by himself that he did not want to d & # 39; another child on the ground. It was not right on Alexis [Sánchez] and [Juan] Mata and [Ander] Herrera.
"We are just trying to play these matches as best as we can, and I think the boys have been very successful until the gasoline goes in. When that happened, that was 39 was goodbye, Liverpool had the majority of their players, and they turned their players. [Mo] Salah played 45, then 45. We can not do it Herrera 90 minutes, [Andreas] Pereira 90 minutes … gasoline finished … So what did this game give me? Nothing at all. "
Mourinho later revealed that Matic had undergone surgery on a non-healing wound. specified at the World Cup and will miss the start of the new campaign: "Matic came out for the start of the season.He came to the World Cup with an injury, and the time that he had had to resting was not enough to solve the problem.He went to Philadelphia to a specialist and he was operated on immediately so as not to save time.

"He has the baby and after the birth of the baby – beautiful baby, full of health, thank goodness He should be here and he is not there.We now have Real Madrid and after we have Bayern Munich and that's our beginning.
"I just hope that boys on vacation deserve to take care of themselves a bit and that someone wants to do what [Marcus] ] Rashford and [Phil] Jones, who has to come back a little earlier to try to team because for the start of the season, we are going to be in trouble. "
