You cant look too much into pre-season games, but what does he expect his board to do? Spend a couple hundred million by the end of the week?
This looks like the Antonio Conte strategy....bad mouth your club until you get fired.

I'm not even mad or worried about the result. Losing 1-0 to Bayern? Not a big deal. They are a European top side after all. But the "how" is alarming. Uniteds season starts on Friday, Bayerns season starts in 19 days. Judging by the game you'd think it's the other way round!
United had no possession and couldn't string together a few passes, let alone any actual chances. The Mourinho apologists will say "it's only preseason" and "we missed a few good players" - and I'd agree if I had seen positive glimpses of things to come. But they just looked lethargic and headless again, and that's probably the XI that will start on Friday. This season is going to be a ####show.
