Wrighty: Mourinho committed to Man Utd; I know why he talked up PSG...

Arsenal legend Ian Wright believes Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho talked up a PSG move to deflect attention away from their disappointing draw at Liverpool.

Mourinho was criticised for taking a negative approach to United's game against Liverpool at the weekend.

And Arsenal legend Wright joked the United boss used his interview on French TV as an opportunity to divert attention away from the goalless draw at Anfield.

“The way they played the other day, he's got to do something to reflect away from that performance," Wright joked on Sky Sports' The Debate show.

“When you go into that realm you're creating column inches and people will talk about that.

“You look at PSG, they're probably the only ones left he might be able to go to with the fortunes they've got where he can go and try and win the Champions League with."
