“He’s not soft, he goes on the pitch, knows the camera’s on him.
“He’s high-fiving all the players, he wants to show a united front. He wants to see the camera on him, with the crowd there.
“You never see Mourinho sort of, when his team aren’t doing well, with his head in his hands, you never get that shot of him.

Man Utd news: Jose Mourinho consoled Luke Shaw after the defeat to Tottenham (Image: GETTY)
“He’s always stood there, I think even his eyes coming out onto the pitch, he looks really ready for the game.
“But it’s almost like an act really, he wanted to show a front. Whatever the media narrative is, he’s complaining about it, there’s lies getting spoken.
“But he knows the camera’s on him there, ‘I’m high-fiving the players, I’m with the supporters, there’s a united front’. You can’t deny that."
Neville agreed with some aspects of what his colleague Carragher said, but also believes Mourinho was genuinely proud of Shaw for his showing.
“I get what you’re saying, but also if he trudges off really miserable, we’d read into it,” Neville said in response.
