Premier League table: How it would look if goals from penalties DIDN’T count, Mourinho-style!

Jose Mourinho has once again stolen the headlines after refusing to accept Manchester United’s defeat to Hull in the EFL Cup semi-final.

The second leg resulted in a 2-1 win for the Tigers, with the Red Devils winning 3-2 on aggregate, but manager Mourinho claims Thursday’s match finished 1-1, as he refused to accept a controversial penalty decision.

The Portuguese boss said: “We didn’t lose, it was 1-1. I only saw two goals. I saw a Pogba goal and their goal, a fantastic goal.

“It was 1-1, we are still unbeaten. I think 18 matches unbeaten is amazing.”

This refusal got talkSPORT thinking – if penalties did not count in the Premier League this season, how much different would the table look?
