Then that's it for schweinsteger then.Can't see any of the current squad going after Mou said this. Also said TFM and Smalling missed because of minor knocks or they would have been given mins.

Mourinho: 'If these players weren't in my plans I wouldn't give them a single minute. They wouldn't be in my squad.
Unbalanced
He could have played him tonight he's back training. But not even been training with the first team. Think he's a gonna.
You could do with a central defender imo. I'm unsure that Smalling and Bailly would be a good fit. Could do with one with experience. Pogba would be a great addition. Also feel that United could do with someone to dictate play from the middle of the park. Pogba isn't fit for that role nor the rest of your midfielders.
Carrick can control a game no problem but we need to replace him next season imo. Someone like Wiegl would be my choice. Think we're are fine at CB tbh. Yeah Bailly will take a little time to settle, but quality is there for all to see and he has a lot of what we've been missing since Vidic left. Just a no nonsense defender, but has the bonus that he can play also.
Bailly is strong, quick and aggressive. My only worry is that he could sell himself too easily and be too undisciplined hence the Gabriel Paulista comparison. Seriously, he was bought to replace Gabriel Paulists, has similar stats to Gabriel Paulista and has the same style of play. Strong, quick and aggressive.
Joao Mario would be best imo. You were linked with him earlier in the summer.
Yeah Carrick still very good and can be key if used correctly. If Mou keeps up his record at training and turning young CBs up we could have a very good player in Bailly. I rate Paulista tbh, just needs games and a season to adapt.
See I think he's more of an attacking midfielder not a player who can dictate play ala Wiegl, Verratti, Modric, Kroos etc
Paulista has been hit and miss. I don't know what to label the success of his transfer. He can look incredible at times then make an erratic decision due to being too aggressive and can sell himself too easily. A bit like Otamendi but even more aggressive. I don't know many Arsenal fans that can judge the success of his signing.
Deep lying playmakers are among the most expensive positions on the pitch. Think of any decent ones for under 30 mill.
I personally rate Joe Allen. Think he will do well at Stoke. Wasted at Lpool.
Feel free to rubbish my reply but this Mata is different from the one he met at chelsea: He's developed the defensive side of his game. He puts in more tackles...covers more ground...he can even play that pressing football mourinho likes (i.e watch united vs arsenal last season and notice how brilliantly he pressed arsenal higher up the pitch.)
Yeah. I remember that. He was also on a yellow card if I do recall.
