The last time that Jose Mourinho spoke to the media took place shortly after Friday’s 2-2 draw at Everton.

Mourinho said: “I think it’s not about the changes. It’s not about the system.

“It’s a system that we played before, it’s a system that many teams they play. It’s a system that you could feel that Everton, even defending in a 4-4-2 they were dealing with three and two wing-backs.

“I don’t think it’s about the system but I believe that the result is one that’s not bad and it’s not good. Were we perfect? No. Were we bad? Also no.”
