<p>Mourinho won the Carabao Cup and Europa League in his first season at Old Trafford before finishing second in the Premier League the following campaign.</p>
<p>But the Portuguese, who revealed he endured a difficult working relationship with former United chief executive Ed Woodward, was sacked in December 2018 after a poor run of results.</p>
<p>The fortunes of the 20-time English champions have improved little since his departure, with Dutchman Ten Hag taking over in 2022 following the tenures of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and interim coach Ralf Rangnick.</p>
<p>“My relationship with Ed Woodward was good – good as in the personal point of view,” Mourinho told the Telegraph.</p>
<p>ADVERTISEMENT<br />
“But from a professional point of view it was not the best.</p>
<p>“I am who I am. I am a football man. Ed comes from a different background and what Ten Hag has in his time at Manchester United I didn’t have. I didn’t have that level of support. I didn’t have that level of trust</p>

<p>“So I left sad, because I felt I was in the beginning of the process.</p>
<p>“In some moments, I felt if they trusted me and believed in my experience things could be different.”</p>
<p>Former Chelsea, Inter Milan and Real Madrid manager Mourinho returned to the Premier League with Tottenham in 2019 before taking charge at Roma, a role he left in January.</p>
<p>The 61-year-old “would love Manchester United to succeed” but suggested some squad members remaining from his tenure lack the professionalism to represent a club striving to compete with the world’s best.</p>
<p>“There are a couple of players still there I didn’t want five or six years ago,” he said.</p>
<p>ADVERTISEMENT<br />
“I think they represent a little bit what I consider not the best professional profile to a club of a certain dimension.</p>
<p>“But I did my job there. Time always tells the truth. I would love Manchester United to succeed.”</p>
