Jose Mourinho: Mkhitaryan ‘disappeared’ during last games

 The manager of Manchester United Jose Mourinho told why he had dropped Henrikh Mkhitaryan from Manchester United’s last two squads, the Guardian reported.

“I was not happy with his last performances. I’m not speaking about one or two, I’m speaking about three, four or five. He started the season very well and after that, step by step, he was disappearing. His performance levels in terms of goalscoring and assists, pressing, recovering the ball high up the pitch, bringing the team with him as a No10, were decreasing. That was enough [to drop him] because the others worked to have a chance. Everybody works to have a chance. It’s as simple as that,” said Mourinho.

Mkhitaryan has been omitted from United’s squads during the past two games against Newcastle United and Basel.
