5 reasons why English teams can win the Champions League

#5 Manchester United's experience

Mourinho knows the big stage well

United are undoubtedly having the best season they have had since Sir Alex Ferguson left. The squad they currently possess, with an array of attacking options, is not far from being a title-winning team. They should comfortably secure a top-four place in the Premier League, which will allow Mourinho to turn his focus on to the Champions League.

Last season’s Europa League triumph should have given them valuable experience and stand them in good stead heading into the latter stages of the competition. Sevilla could prove a tricky test, but with the second-leg at Old Trafford, United should make it through.
