[News Updates] Carra Gives view on Jose Mourinho Record




Jamie Carragher gives his view on Jose Mourinho's tactics on Monday Night Football
Jamie Carragher told Monday Night Football he didn't object to Jose Mourinho's tactics at Liverpool - but his approach against top-six sides could cost Manchester United the title.


United faced one of last season's top six for the first time on Saturday, but the result was an uneventful 0-0 draw and they had just one shot on target in the entire match.
