​Mourinho reckons Man Utd are no longer 'special'

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho says that Manchester United's era of domestic domination is over.

"I knew when I took over that periods of domination belong to the past. The Premier League was going in a different direction," he said.

The Portuguese added that he did not speak to David Moyes - who filled the role between May 2013 and April 2014 - before taking on the Old Trafford job.

Moyes returns to United for the first time since his sacking with Sunderland on Boxing Day.
