JOSE MOURINHO reportedly “berated” his Manchester United players in a training session on Monday following their humiliating 2-1 defeat to Huddersfield.

The Daily Mail claims Mourinho launched a second attack on his flop stars after giving them an earful in the away changing room last Saturday.

A source claims the Special One “criticised the players’ attitude, and questioned the heart and hunger within the team.”

They said: “He lost it. He shouted at the players that it wasn’t good enough, and told them there’s an expectation to win at United. He wants a response out of them.”

The Red Devils quickly got back to winning ways with a 2-1 victory over Swansea in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.

But they host high-flying Tottenham this weekend, with the two title contenders both level on points.
