Jose Mourinho’s Premier League Old Trafford bow is here. The self-proclaimed Special One is ready to walk out of that famous tunnel for the first time in a competitive game as our boss – and what an exciting match we have in prospect.
We’ve taken a look at a probable starting line-up for the game, and my it looks extremely strong. The back five will stay exactly the same, particularly after such a dominant performance. That means Chris Smalling is back available, but will probably have to settle for a bench spot.
The midfield trio is particularly exciting. Marouane Fellaini will sit at the base, we’ll have new-boy Paul Pogba playing the box-to-box role, and Juan Mata just ahead of them in a more attacking central position.
We could well see another full debut given to Henrikh Mkhitaryan out on the right-wing. Anthony Martial will start from the left, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic continuing as the sole striker.
