Jose has no patience for 'poetry'

Mourinho says three trophies justify his pragmatic approach

STOCKHOLM - Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho said his side's season was a triumph of pragmatism over poetry following its Europa League success against Ajax in Stockholm on Wednesday.

In a poignant match scarred by Monday's terror attack in Manchester, which left 22 people dead, United prevailed 2-0 through goals from Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan to win the tournament for the first time.
