The Portuguese said his players needed to be more clinical in front of goal (Picture: Getty)Jose Mourinho singled out Alexis Sanchez and Anthony Martial for their profligacy in Manchester United’s surprise defeat to Newcastle United on Sunday. Newcastle were indebted to on-loan goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, who made a number of important saves, though United wasted several gilt-edged opportunities. And after the match, Mourinho – who had been full of praise for Newcastle’s resistance – admitted that his side had lacked cutting edge. Alexis [Sanchez] had an open goal and then the countless opportunities of the last 20-25 minutes. When you see the amount of chances we lost, starting in the first half when Anthony was facing the keeper.
