Waching daily Sep 30 2018

 That's the view of former Premier League midfielder Jamie Redknapp, who saw Manchester United lose 3-2 at Brighton on Sunday

 Bailly and Lindelof both struggled as United looked all at sea on the south coast, with Paul Pogba's injury time penalty putting a brighter look on proceedings

 It came after a summer of discontent for Mourinho, with the Portuguese boss determined to sign a centre-back

 Harry Maguire, Jerome Boateng and Toby Alderweireld were all linked with a move to Old Trafford, though Mourinho never got his wish

 Vice-chairman Ed Woodward helped Mourinho sign Fred, Diogo Dalot and Lee Grant but did not purchase a new centre-back

 And Redknapp believes that the performances of Bailly and Lindelof, both previously signed by Mourinho, show exactly why Woodward did not dip his hand into his pocket for a new central defender this summer

 "Mourinho may well point to his centre backs' errors and that he could not buy a defender," Redknapp wrote in his Daily Mail column

 "Eric Bailly and Victor Lindelof may have played like youth team players but they are defenders Mourinho spent £60million to bring in

 "That is why the club have been reluctant to back their manager this summer. "City and Liverpool go above and beyond whenever Guardiola or Jurgen Klopp want a player but why would United want to waste more money, especially if there could be a new manager next season? "This defeat could be written off as a blip were it not for Jose's history of calamitous third seasons

 "Already, you get the feeling the players are growing tired of not only their manager's negative football but his outbursts, too

 "Tottenham next Monday is now one of the biggest games of his United career. Spurs have started strongly but are yet to score at Old Trafford under Mauricio Pochettino

 "A morale-boosting win could be just what Mourinho needs to keep the wolf from the door

" Following the defeat at Brighton, Mourinho was asked by a Sky Sports reporter if he thought United suffered from poor individual performances

 But the question didn't go down well as the United boss refused to answer it. "When I talk about individual performances, and sometimes when I'm critical with players, you just don't accept it," he snapped back

 "The press, the pundits, are always very critical of me when I go in that direction so please don't ask me to go in this direction because it's not good for me

 "I will be very, very happy to analyse my players' performances when the performances are very good

" Manchester United's next game sees them host Tottenham next Monday (8pm).
