Mourinho fumes as United are held by WBA
Apr 1, 2017 - 5:13 PM Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho was left to rue poor finishing as his side were held to a dour 0-0 home draw by West Bromwich Albion to miss a chance to close in on the Premier League's top four.The result left United in fifth on 53 points from 28 games, four behind fourth-placed Manchester City who visit Arsenal on Sunday. West Brom stayed eighth on 44 points from 30 matches.
"We have a lot of draws this season," Mourinho told the BBC after his side produced a toothless performance despite enjoying the lion's share of the possession.
"Teams come here just to defend. Goalkeepers come here to be man of the match. We cannot score a goal even when we are one-on-one," he added.
"We beat everyone on quality of play and direction of the game, possession, creation and ambition but we drew too many matches."
United, who were missing six regular starters through injury or suspension, stretched their unbeaten league run to 19 games but it will be scant consolation after they failed to carve out any clear-cut chances.
