Man United's Jose Mourinho needs to play attacking football - Samuel Eto'o

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho needs to keep playing attacking football, his former Inter Milan striker Samuel Eto'o has said.

Eto'o played under Mourinho at Inter when the club won the Treble in 2010 and also worked with him at Chelsea in 2013-14.

Success in Italy was built on a solid defence -- something Mourinho has become strongly associated with -- but this week he praised the "beautiful, attacking football" he feels United are playing.

Eto'o told Telefoot: "Jose has changed a lot, because I got to know someone exceptional when I arrived at Inter.
