3 key points of Jose Mourinho's pre-Manchester Derby press conference

Manchester United v SL Benfica - UEFA Champions League

Eric Bailly is UNAVAILABLE

Mourinho revealed that Manchester United will be without defender Eric Bailly for the fixture. The centre-back's injury seems to be worse than first anticipated.

Mourinho said bluntly, according to Mirror:

Eric Bailly is not available.

The good thing for Mourinho is that Marcos Rojo has returned to action better than ever after suffering cruciate ligament damage last season.

The Reds are also boosted by the return of English defender Phil Jones, who is available for selection.
