Jose Mourinho Comments on Chris Smalling, Luke Shaw Criticised by Gordon Taylor

Gordon Taylor, chief executive of the Professional Footballers' Association, has criticised Jose Mourinho after his comments on Manchester United duo Luke Shaw and Chris Smalling on Sunday.

Per Goal's Alex Young, Taylor spoke at the VSI Sporting Directors governance dinner and said:

I was disappointed by that because, knowing the individuals, they are both highly thought of.

They've got personal problems which I don't need to relay, but sometimes a manager needs to be a psychologist as well, and also to be a counsellor because you can't treat everybody in the team [the same], every manager must know that.
