Jose Mourinho will face his former Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder who is at Galatasaray and Riekering believes the Turkish side will present a good test for United stars.

Widespread reports have claimed that the former Germany captain, who announced his retirement from worldwide football on Friday, has been told by Mourinho that he is not in his plans for the coming campaign. Borthwick-Jackson, who has been struggling with a groin strain, could now leave the club on loan, according to the Manchester Evening News who also suggest Fosu-Mensah has suffered a calf injury which rules him out of the Saturday’s game.

Asked specifically if Zlatan and Mourinho’s two other signings have provided a boost, De Gea said: “Yeah that gives us more energy when you see players like them coming to Manchester and now we have to train all together, trying to be fit as soon as possible and now we’re going to play the first game against Leicester City with the Community Shield up for grabs”.

‘We need to keep focused, to build up the physical part and the conditioning part but we will give them what they want’.

Ibra also spoke about his teammates after his first training session with them. “Positive vibes. They seem to be good guys, quality players, they train very hard and, during the training, are very focused”. The coach – he is direct, he is concrete, he says what he wants and the players are adapting.

Speaking in an interview with United’s website, Park said: “I think the club needs a big character like him”.

‘Working hard, training hard and feeling good.
