In his first season with Manchester United he placed the team 6th in the Premier League with 69 points but he did win the Europa League and an FA Community Shield. In his second full season with Manchester United, Mourinho did not win any trophies for the team as he finished runners up in the FA Cup against Chelsea and placed second in the Premier League behind Manchester City.

The 2017/2018 season saw Manchester United second with 81 points, but Manchester City finished first with a historic 100 points. Jose Mourinho had to take on the Man City Centurions in his second season with Man United. After discussing about not winning the Premier League with Man United, he took a slight dig towards Man City. Mourinho said, "I was killed for saying second place was one of the greatest achievements of my career. Maybe there is a chance that we will win that league, no? Because if Man City are found guilty in Financial Fair Play and they are breaking the rules... they lose a few points, and maybe we win that title!" Man City is yet to be punished for the 115 charges they have, and rumors are circulating that some of the previous Premier League titles City could be taken away from them. It would either be void or given to second-place teams.

The best Cristiano, the best Messi, Barcelona best team in the world, Madrid trying to change that. The world stopped for El Clásico. One season Barca win, one season Madrid wins. It was beautiful, but the intensity."
