Champions League – More true the stars: – Stay at home

• Manchester United – Young boys, at. 9:00 p.m.

José Mourinho and Manchester United face the Young Boys in the Champions League tonight. In the first two home games of the group, United has not scored a single goal.

First, the team played 0-0 against Valencia, then 0-1 for Juventus. In the Premier League, United has won only three out of six home games. Do not players put pressure on Old Trafford?

At a press conference yesterday, Mourinho sent a clear message to the players:

– If you feel pressure at home, you can stay at home. And when I say at home, I do not talk about the stadium, but in front of the television.

In asking if it is easier for players outside the home than at home, he responds:

– I do not want to participate. The supporters and the stadium will have no respect to say: "We prefer to play outside." I do not have the right to say it. Do I prefer playing Young Boys here (at Old Trafford) or Bern? I will immediately answer the house. Always.

Mourinho's statements are quoted in English newspapers on Tuesday:

"Go home. Mourinho tells the stars to watch TV if they can not cope with Old Trafford, "it rings in the back of Express.

United can make sure his team will be out of the race if they beat Young Boys and Valencia do not win against Juventus. Juventus leads and has nine points. Next are United (7 points), Valencia (5 points) and Young Boys (1 point).

United comes from a 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace on Saturday. The team has to fend off without the Swedish midfielder Victor Lindelöf, who is suffering from a muscle injury.

"If we find him at Christmas time – we need all players in a difficult time – it will be good," said Mourinho. Marcos Rojo is also in trouble. The manager must choose between Eric Bailly and Phil Jones on the starting point.

Mourinho has been criticized for his tactic against Palace, but dismissed critics of the press conference yesterday. On the contrary, he thinks that the players did not follow his instructions.

"I wanted the team to be strong and attack the attacker, do not wait, Mourinho answered questions from a reporter.

"Maybe you or the fans thought that" José told them to be careful. "But the opposite was the case – I wanted the team to attack early on, so it was frustrating to see.

Although United has a chance to advance in the final battle against Valencia, Mourinho thinks the team should attack as if the match of the last race was the last chance.
