Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho believes Sam Allardyce is the best man for the England job but must be given the right support. It was never like in other stadiums.

And Mourinho says Ibrahimovic is highly motivated and in good shape ahead of the challenge that awaits him, insisting he would not have convinced him to move to Old Trafford otherwise. It is part of what makes him one of the best managers in the world.

“It’s a concern”, International Champions Cup China spokesman Ben Xiaozheng told reporters.

In fact, Beckham feels Mourinho can win the Premier League in his debut campaign in charge at United.

“That was him (Ferguson), not me”.

“I always think there’s our age in ID terms but then there’s our real age because for me the real age is not the age on your ID”. I gave them four profiles of players we need, and I gave them a few options, and they did for me 75 per cent of the job with Ibrahimovic, Mkhitaryan and Bailly. But as I went through it I knew I was coming back.

However, former United and England captain Beckham – who stars in a brand new advertisement to promote the Premier League on Sky Sports – believes Mourinho’s experience of winning titles all over Europe will help him return United to the summit of the game in England.

“We try to do suits by measure that are flawless for the person and the way I’m building the team is more important for me with the players from other positions than the one I think who is going to play as the striker”.

“I just want to push on in this pre-season and get fully fit”. “I like communication and push them to communicate. So that is what we need to get back to”.
