Ibrahimovic is set to make his Premier League debut when United open their campaign at Bournemouth on Saturday.

While Mourinho’s predecessor Louis Van Gaal was criticised for his defensive style of play, the new United boss believes winning matches is more important than Manchester United’s playing style.
Mourinho has already led the Red Devils to their first piece of silverware after he guided them to Community Shield glory over Leicester City at Wembley on Sunday afternoon. They won the Serie A title all four seasons with Pogba as the team’s backbone, and then they netted well over $115 million on their investment.
Bournemouth 0-1 Man Utd: Mourinho has vowed to play a more exciting brand of football this season but I think fans may have to wait a little while for the team to gel before we see it come to fruition.
“I got help from many players”.
“You can see him driving a nice vehicle and you think this guy is not thinking about his football, but that is not the case”, Mourinho said. Everyone is ready for the new season.
“I have played with big champions, big quality, top players, this is something I have brought with me and I give to the younger players”.
“Let’s see what happens – you never know, it could be more than two [years], it could be more than three [years at United]”.
‘I didn’t know if the suspension would be in Italian football, a suspension for the same competition, or the correspondent competition in England, the FA Cup.

“I think it will work very well”. He’s suspended and I don’t speak about suspended players or injured players. “He can go forward, he can sit, he can score goals and create goals and he can defend – he’s an all-round player that would benefit any team”. And I believe in him, yes. You study all the same details and start to do the same. It’s a very hard match for us but we are in condition to win it but not at the highest intensity.
