Man Utd news: Jose Mourinho stunned club chiefs for something he did after Chelsea final
MANCHESTER UNITED boss Jose Mourinho stunned Red Devils chiefs for something he did following their 1-0 FA Cup final defeat to Chelsea on Saturday.
Manchester United missed out on FA Cup glory at the weekend as Chelsea beat them courtesy of Eden Hazard’s first-half penalty.
Mourinho was in a sulky mood after the game, taking aim at Romelu Lukaku for failing to play through the pain in order to preserve himself for the World Cup.
And The Sun say the Manchester United boss was so sulky, he left club chiefs stunned.
Mourinho’s defeat to Chelsea was his first-ever cup final defeat in England.
The 55-year-old was previously unbeaten, having won all four preceding matches while in charge of both the Blues and United respectively.

It is claimed that United chiefs were shocked when Mourinho only briefly attended the post-match reception.
And it is already known he refused to address his players following their Wembley woes.
The Sun's report adds Mourinho has been issued specific instructions regarding both Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez.
United signed Pogba from Juventus in 2016 for a then world-record £89million.
And they also landed Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal in January in a deal that saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan move in the opposite direction.

United’s dynamic duo have so far disappointed under Mourinho’s tutelage.
As a result, the Red Devils boss has been told to ensure they shine next season.
Pogba could suffer from fatigue if France flourish at the World Cup in Russia, which starts next month.
Sanchez, however, should have no such worries with Chile failing to make the cut.
