Official Stoke City account mocks Jose Mourinho’s tactics with Man Utd

Even Stoke City are joining in with the digs towards Jose Mourinho’s current predicament at Manchester United.

The Portuguese is under pressure following a run of four games without a win, while United are failing to excite fans with their drab performances.

Mourinho is also at odds with several first-team players, including Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez. Stoke, meanwhile, were relegated from the Premier League last season, but that did not stop them from having a joke at the expense of United and Mourinho on social media.

One account on Twitter posted: ‘Only Jose Mourinho could have a team consisting of Paul Pogba, Martial, Mata, Sanchez, Rashford and Lukaku and then decide to play like a 2009 version of Stoke City.’

But Stoke City’s official account responded with: ‘Not quite, we were beating Tottenham and West Ham in 2009.’ Mourinho has the chance to silence the doubters with a win over Newcastle United this Saturday.

Not quite, we were beating Tottenham and West Ham in 2009.#SCFC ????⚪️ https://t.co/HVjjvVQn3P
