Mourinho blasts referee after 2-2 draw with Chelsea

Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has aimed a dig at referee Mike Dean following his side’s 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Saturday.

Antonio Rudiger gave the Blues a first-half lead, before Anthony Martial put United ahead with a brace in the second half.

With Mourinho’s men looking to take all three points, Ross Barkley struck the equalizer in the 97th minute of play.

“We weren’t there in the first half against Newcastle, but today we were there. In the first half we weren’t aggressive enough. We controlled their triggers. I’ve never seen Jorginho play so little as he did today.

“After the 2-1 we had great positions to score the third goal and I hope every referee does the same as Mike Dean to give 6 minutes.
“Normally when I’m losing I don’t have 5 or 6 or 7 minutes,” Mourinho told Sky Sports.

He also spoke on his bust-up with Chelsea coach, Marco Ianni, after Barkley scored.

According to the Portuguese, Maurizio Sarri has promised to deal with the matter internally.

“I’m not annoyed with anything. Sarri said he would solve the problem with his assistant internally and he then came to me and apologised and I said if he really meant it then okay, I accept,” he added.
