“Oh! It was hard to convince him”, Mourinho said. “I think for a central midfield player in a game of that magnitude, it was one of the most ill-disciplined performances you’ll see in the first 40 minutes.”- The Sun.

Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Marcus Rashford will play from the start in Manchester United’s Europa League opener against Feyenoord on Thursday night.
Manchester United has turned out to be a first UK football club to earn £515.3m in a one financial year. “So this is the first big step”.
The Champions League gets underway in United’s absence this week, while their 100 per cent start to the Premier League season was brought crashing to earth by a 2-1 defeat against local rivals Manchester City on Saturday.
While warning against expectations reaching unrealistic levels, Mourinho admits to being already impressed with the attitude of the squad at his disposal. “That’s all I can say”. “Rome was not built in one day and a football team is probably more hard to build than Rome was!” My relationship with Paul is easy – I speak, he listens.
Many felt Pogba failed to justify his place in the starting XI alongside Marouane Fellaini, and Carragher reckons the Frenchman produced one of the “most ill-disciplined performances” in recent times. “I didn’t feel odd or under pressure”.
“And it is not to punish them, it is just to decide in relation to what I have – and what do I have? Their performances. So, of course, I am going to play other players”.
“You can imagine that being at home with that awesome support behind the team is a moment to remember as one of the nicest ones in my career”.
Executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward made no mention of Van Gaal or Schweinsteiger in his conference call to potential investors, but said that the club were expecting a revenue this year of between £530m-£545m despite not qualifying for this year’s Champions League. He certainly won’t play against Feyenoord.

“Then, we go for the results”.
