The Red Devils were a long way short of their best in the 2-1 loss against the promoted team. After the match, Mourinho tore into the United stars, saying "I don't even remember a friendly match when our attitude was so poor," per BBC Sport.

According to David McDonnell of the Daily Mirror, those scathing words have not been received well by the dressing room.

"There are simmering tensions behind the scenes, with some players feeling Mourinho went too far in his public criticism of them, followed by his subsequent brooding on the training pitch the following day," he noted. "Mourinho's demand that his players show more commitment came less than a week after he himself appeared to flirt with big-spending Paris Saint-Germain."
