Fred: I’m annoyed at Mourinho!

Manchester United star Fred has conceded that he is frustrated with life at Old Trafford – especially as it has cost him his place in the Brazil national team.

The midfielder joined Jose Mourinho’s team from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer for £52 million but has failed to get a regular spot.

Indeed, he has appeared only 10 times for United and has totalled only 645 minutes of pitch time.




This has resulted in the 25-year-old losing his place in Brazil’s squad just six months out from Copa America 2019.

“I’ve played very little at United, so it’s normal for Professor Tite not to be able to evaluate me, even though I’ve worked hard with him before,” he told reporters.

“Of course, I was annoyed, but I have to know how to deal with the sadness to be able to help me take a step forward.

“The coach has chosen not to put me in the team. That’s his choice. I still do my job and I can’t let it affect my mindset, I cannot let that shake me. I have to be patient.”




Indeed, The Brazilian has found settling down in the Premier League somewhat complicated.

“It’s been a bit of a difficult start for me at United because I have not been playing so much. I had a lot of games in Shakhtar, but it’s a little bit different here. It’s normal, of course, a process of adaptation to a different league.

“Although I’ve been to Europe before, now I am in a different country and I have to go through a new process of settling in. But today I see myself much better and I hope that my football will be 100 per cent soon.

“I think I had a great performance against Young Boys in the Champions League. We had the opportunity to score a few times before we scored the goal at the end, but I was very happy to have returned to the field and I hope to continue playing more.”




United struggled to get a 2-2 draw against Southampton on Saturday – a game in which Fred remained on the bench – and will attempt to bounce back against Arsenal on Wednesday.
