Manchester United: Jose Mourinho Says Premier League Doesn’t Help Clubs

United play Middlesbrough on Sunday with the 12:00 GMT kick-off coming 62 hours after the end of their Europa League last-16 victory over FC Rostov.

Mourinho says United will “probably lose” and it would be “common sense” for the game to start at 17:00.

“They simply don’t care,” added the Portuguese of the Premier League, who offered no comment on the situation.

There is an agreement that clubs in Europa League action on a Thursday do not play on Saturdays. An international break stops the Premier League game at The Riverside from being played on Monday.

Premier League host broadcasters Sky and BT Sport decide which games they will televise live. Sky can show two mid-afternoon games on a Sunday – Tottenham v Southampton and Manchester City v Liverpool this week – and the game at Middlesbrough is being shown on BT Sport, who have the option of a midday slot.
