Mourinho Faces Scrutiny at Fenerbahce

Jose Mourinho, now managing Fenerbahce, is under scrutiny for creating a negative atmosphere within the team as they prepare for a Europa League match against his former club, Manchester United. Despite a strong start in the Europa League, Fenerbahce is currently winless in October and sits fourth in the Turkish Super Lig, eight points behind the leaders. Former Fenerbahce player Volkan Demirel criticized Mourinho, stating the team is plagued by 'unhappiness and hopelessness,' a sentiment echoed by the team's failure to advance in the Champions League. Mourinho's summer signings, including former Premier League players like Allan Saint-Maximin and Sofyan Amrabat, have not yet led to the anticipated success. The Turkish media have noted Mourinho's frustration with the local press and his adjustment to Turkish football culture. However, there are no indications that Mourinho's job is in jeopardy as he remains a prominent figure in Istanbul, even amid his team's struggles.
