Fred lifts lid on what Mourinho is like in training

Manchester United midfielder Fred thanked manager Jose Mourinho for helping him to settle at Old Trafford after the team edged past Young Boys in the Champions League on Tuesday. “He is a great coach, a coach who has a big star", Fred told Esporte Interativo. "And always at the end of the game we win, he can switch (make substitutions) well. But he’s a great coach on a daily basis. He’s always joking with us, talking, supporting us. So I’m very happy to be here at this great team and very happy to be working with him too.” Fred, a £52million capture from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer, has struggled to make an impression in England after United beat rivals Man City to his signature.
