Manchester United and Liverpool go head-to-head in the pre-season friendly this week and Mourinho is already looking forward to facing his good rival, Jurgen Klopp.
Manchester United played Club America and then, San Jose Earthquakes and drew both matches 0-0 and 1-1 respectively.
Last night, Man United start their International Champions Cup tournament with another draw as Liverpool played their second match of the tournament which they won against Premier League Champions Manchester City 2-1.
Manchester United third choice goalkeeper Joel Pereira is even better than Liverpool last season first-choice goalie. Joel made splendid saves from the penalty spot against AC Milan.
Jose Mourinho could not hold back when asked about Liverpool spending spree this season and said:
"I think if you have the money, if you invest well, it is better than to have it in the bank. Because the interest rates are very low," Mourinho said.
"The problem is you have to invest well and honestly I think they did very well, because every player they bought are quality players. I'm happy for them.
"And I'm also happy to smile [about Klopp's previous comments] and to see that, you know, you can change your opinion and change as a person, it's funny.
"That's okay, but maybe this season finally you demand that they win. I think you have to be fair and now you have to demand [they win the league].
"You have to say the team, with the investments not just this season, last season, that you made in January, that you make now, because that will probably be the record for the Premier League this season, I can't see anyone else getting close to spending what they have.
"A team that was a finalist in the Champions League, you have to say you are a big candidate, you have to win."
