Fenerbahce great Volkan Demirel has criticized Jose Mourinho, accusing the Portuguese manager of inciting negativity in the dressing room as the Turkish team gets ready to play Manchester United in the Europa League. As Fenerbahce suffers with bad form, Mourinho is coming under fire for his leadership and tactics as he prepares for a reunion with his old team.
Despite squandering the lead twice in their most recent 2-2 tie with Samsunspor, Fenerbahce has failed to secure a victory in October. Mourinho is under more pressure now that the team is eight points behind league leaders Galatasaray in fourth place in the Turkish Super Lig.
Demirel’s Criticism of Volkan
“Right now, this Fenerbahce team is mixed with unhappiness and hopelessness.” Fenerbahce legend Volkan Demirel said in an interview with Fanatik, expressing discontent with Mourinho’s influence on the team. Demirel questioned why the team’s expectations of Mourinho and the new additions have not been fulfilled and why the club’s climate has gotten worse.
