Following Manchester United’s 2-0 victory over Watford today, Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho (a coach famous for his defensive tactics) said it would be difficult for Manchester United to catch Chelsea due to Chelsea’s defensive tactics.

Mourinho said: “I am so happy with the game between Liverpool and Tottenham later because I know someone will lose points.

“Chelsea are very good defensive team.

“They defend very well and with lots of players and I think in this situation, a very defensive team wins the title with counterattack goals and set pieces goals. So I don’t think they will let it slip but football is football.”
