Vinnie Jones has warned Jose Mourinho that Manchester Uniteds top young players may look to leave the club unless he starts putting an arm around them.Mourinho has a history of publicly criticising his players, and this season has been no different.While his bad cop approach may have worked with Luke Shaw who has been hammered by the boss throughout his Old Trafford tenure but has been perhaps Uniteds best player this term it hasnt seemed to have the desired effect with others.Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Jesse Lingard have all been far from their best in a Man United shirt this season and, publicly at least, they have had little love from their manager.It was reported last week that Mourinho had singled out Shaw, Martial, Lingard and Rashford for harsh criticism in an interview with Barcelona legend Hristo Stoichkov, saying the United starlets were spoilt kids and lacked character.
2What Mourinho said in Univision Deportes interview
“They are lacking maturity. Maturity that when you [Stoichcov] played, I think the youngsters look at your situation, at my situation.“I wasnt a player, obviously, but when I say maturity I mean on a personal level. We were more like men. We were more mature. We were more prepared for life. Lets say it like that. We were less protected.“In English they call it spoilt, spoilt kids. Our kids are more spoilt than we were by our parents. We are more mature, we are better prepared. For young people now, its a different life on a social level compared to ours.“Todays players also in their surroundings, they have a word that was used a lot in Barcelona,entorno[environment] that they use in a more global, holistic sense in relation to the club. When I use the word I use it more in relation to a personal environment. To the people who surround the players, who protect them too much, who give them in my opinion too much care, too many excuses. Theres always an excuse for everything.“People are maturing more slowly. For example, the young lad Luke Shaw, who is the left-back of the national team, who arrived there [at United] two years before me. He didnt know how to compete. He had great potential, yes, but he didnt know how to compete.“When we talk about Luke Shaw, [Anthony] Martial, [Jesse] Lingard, Marcus Rashford, were talking about young lads but who also are still missing a word that I cant use but you like to use. They are missing a bit of that. Character, personality, as they say in Spain as well, bad blood, that natural aggression that you had.”Especially Rashford, who is said to be frustrated with his bit-part role at Old Trafford this season and has been linked with a stunning move to Real Madrid.Speaking on Mondays Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, the FA Cup winner said: If I was Rashford Id say, Im off – at the first opportunity, Im out of here.
