- The 55-year-old was sacked by the Premier league side in December when it became clear he could not get the best out of his players

- While on Bein Sports show as an analyst, Mourinho reveals that some players are now bigger than the club

Jose Mourinho has lashed out at Manchester United barely one month after being sacked by the Premier League giants in December.

The Portuguese tactician, who reigned at Old Trafford for about two and a half seasons claims the Red Devils are not ready to play modern day football.

Making his appearances as a guest analyst on beIN Sports on Thursday for the Asian Cup games, the ex-Real Madrid handler expressed his displeasure with the club.

Mourinho and his United players won the Europa League and EFL Cup at the end of his first season at the club.

He also led the Red Devils armies to gain promotion back into the Champions League the following season but crashed out in the second round after losing to Sevilla in the round of 16.

However, the 55-year-old was unable to keep up healthy relationship with his stars as he had bust ups with Paul Pogba, and a few others in less than three years in charge.

Despite qualifying for the second round stage of this seasons UCL with one match to spare, Mourinho's men struggled in all other competitions.

The former Chelsea coach was sacked in mid-December following his side's 3-1 defeat to table toppers Liverpool at Anfield, a defeat the club chiefs consider disappointing.

However, below are the top five highlights of Mourinho's first interview after the sack:

1. Mourinho claims Man United are not ready for modern day football -

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
