Except Aurier for Doherty, it was the exact starting XI I would have fielded at least. Including the formation.

That is surprising
WRT fatigue, that’s on the coaching staff, the schedule isn’t a surprise, they control the training and the selections, I don’t think Jose has done a good enough job of managing minutes around the squad.
The players have a fun summer coming because the base level of fitness needs to be greatly increased for next season imo.
Tanguy and Hojbjergs passing was terrible today, gave us no platform to build on. Hojbjerg has been poor for a few games now, he needs to be taken out for a couple of games.

I think with regards to attacking players that is about right. But he is in the last chance saloon now, so anyone thinking he is going to rotate unless the sports scientists pin him to the wall and tell him to is dreaming IMO.

This. But it will require a gamble from Mourinho to do that.

Sorry, but there is no logical reason for this.

I don't think their fitness levels will improve. Remember how his sacking at United went? Ole came in, had them pressing like tigers for ten games, and then it all went to crap as their legs gave out. Points to systematically poor fitness management by this guy. The damage will have to be fixed after he leaves, I think.

Don’t think United fitness looks any better now
They look really leggy
Like most sides TBF this season

thats madness imo, a fit player always offers more to a system than a knackered one, it’s unlike Jose to consider the singular over the whole

could it be general fatigue?
I don’t see it!
But I’m lost answers after watching us today!
We could always fall back on the tried and tested "Harry Redknapp's Poor Fitness Bgone" cure by banning ketchup at the lodge.That is surprising

If he doesn’t fix it he won’t make Christmas, fitness was in the gutter when he arrived to be fair, we’ve been bad at it for a while.

I guess Mourinho wants to alternate between Aurier + Davies and Reguilon + Doherty as full backs.
As the 2 understudies are so inferior that playing both in same team is to be avoided at all costs.

Anybody at this stage, even Sissoko. We're going to need him at his best in the latter stages of the Europa, assuming we get there and against City in the League Cup final.
We're not getting top 4 after today, so might as well give him a break and try get him back to where he was earlier in the season for the bigger games.
