Mourinho has made some big changes to this summer’s tour and it’s got nothing to do with what’s happening on the pitch.
Last year’s China tour bus had big pictures of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Luke Shaw on the side, but not this time around.
James Ducker from the Telegraph explained why:
"United have opted against doing something similar for this summer’s pre-season tour of the US because Mourinho is uncomfortable with the club singling out certain players.
In the interests of fostering a strong team spirit, and ensuring all players feel as important as one another, the Portuguese’s view is that the faces of every player should be on the team bus or none at all."

Has nobody taken over from Rio in terms of doing tour diaries? I used to enjoy watching that.
I suppose there's not as much need for it anymore with how much more busy they all are on social media.

Manchester United and Real Madrid have been involved in a heated row over their summer tour arrangements in Los Angeles. Both clubs picked the city as their pre-season base, which has led to a series of arguments over everything from hotels to training pitches as they battle for supremacy. Relations between United and Real have even soured to the point that officials at Relevent Sports, organisers of the International Champions Cup (ICC), have been forced to intervene in an effort to placate both parties. Sources have admitted the situation has been a “nightmare” to deal with and is likely to ensure a tense meeting when the teams face each other in the ICC at the Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara on July 23, in what will be United’s fourth game of their tour. They also face each other in the European Super Cup in Macedonia on August 8. United and Real’s uneasy relation-ship dates back to the Spanish club’s courtship of Cristiano Ronaldo. Sir Alex Ferguson, the former United manager, famously declared that he would “not sell that mob a virus” when asked about the possibility of Ronaldo joining Real, only later to sell the Portugal forward for a then world-record £80 million in 2009. More recently, United and Real clashed over the Spanish side’s attempt to sign goalkeeper David De Gea in 2015. A move collapsed on transfer deadline day with each club blaming the other for the farce. Relations took another turn for the worse when the Manchester club unexpectedly called off negotiations to sign Real striker Alvaro Morata after securing a deal to buy Romelu Lukaku from Everton for £90 million. United appear to be coming out on top in their latest spat. They have landed the more favourable facilities in LA after beating Real to secure the sumptuous Montage hotel in Beverly Hills as their team hotel. Other staff are staying at the Beverly Wilshere, the same accommodation that they used on their 2014 tour of the US under Louis van Gaal. Real are staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel. They have also managed to secure use of the bigger training pitches at UCLA, which are closer to the changing rooms, and equipped with an outside swimming pool. In another significant development for United manager Jose Mourinho, the pitch his squad are using at UCLA’s Drake Stadium is more private than the one Real have been forced to use a short distance away. United arrived in LA at the weekend and play their first tour game against LA Galaxy at the StubHub Centre in the early hours of Sunday. Meanwhile, United defender Luke Shaw is pushing to be fit for the Premier League opener against West Ham on August 13 after suffering ankle-ligament damage in April. Mourinho has also allowed Adnan Januzaj to join Real Sociedad in an €8.5 million deal that could rise to €11 million (£9.8 million). United have a buy-back option on the winger. www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/07/12/manchester-united-real-madrid-heated-row-summer-tour-arrangements/ |
