Jose Mourinho: 'Stoke City draw our best performance of the season'

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho suggests that his side produced their best display of the season despite being held to a 1-1 draw with Stoke City at Old Trafford.

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has suggested that his side produced their best performance of the season despite drawing 1-1 at home to Stoke City in the Premier League this afternoon.

Mourinho's United charges found themselves 1-0 ahead when substitute Anthony Martial opened the scoring in the second half, but an unlikely error from Reds stopper David de Gea allowed Joe Allen to rescue a point for Stoke late on.

"This is the best performance all season and could have been one of these fat results in the Premier League, it could have been 5-0 or 6-0. We had big chances, with amazing saves and big misses," said Mourinho, according to BBC Sport.

"We chased the second goal and they go at the other end and score the goal and get a point. You can have sometimes have draws where what you does nothing to change the result.

"The players and I did everything. I made changes, everyone was giving more and more but today we could be here all day without winning the game. We will play worse and win games for sure."

United now have 13 points from seven games and occupy sixth spot in the league standings.
