The final match of the tour is Manchester derby against City today and Mourinho can’t wait for it to be over. "It is almost the end and we can go home and train in conditions where the players are safe," said Mourinho after a wild couple of days for his squad after they lost 4-1 to Borussia Dortmund in Shanghai on Friday.
Half of Mourinho’s players were caught on a plane on Saturday, which had to make a forced landing because of a violent storm in the capital. Striker Memphis Depay tweeted a video of himself outside the plane in Tianjin, saying they were "lost in China".
"We were supposed to fly in two planes," Mourinho said. "The second group was unlucky as they had a storm and had to land for a couple of hours. They then arrived at the hotel at 1am. The players arrived with a smile."
