5 reasons why Manchester United will destroy Manchester City at the Etihad

#4 United big boys finally seem to play well together

Mourinho could do wonders if he gets Pogba, Sanchez, and Lukaku to play well together

When Jose Mourinho bought Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal in January, everyone thought he was the missing piece in Mourinho’s attack. Even Mourinho commented that Alexis could complete his attack.

However, things went south for Manchester United ever since the arrival of the Chilean. United lost to Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United in the Premier League and was eliminated from the UEFA Champions League round of 16 by Sevilla.

Mourinho struggled to get three of his big money signings play together. He dropped Pogba on a couple of occasions and played Scott McTominay in his place. Alexis Sanchez struggled to produce his best and United kept losing games.

After experimenting quite a bit, he reverted back to his Plan A and played Pogba, Alexis, and Lukaku against Swansea City last week. It was the best game that Manchester United played in recent weeks and it yielded excellent results. Lukaku scored a goal while Alexis scored one and assisted 1 more. Pogba too had a good game in the midfield.

Looks like Mourinho has finally found a way to play all his superstars together in a 4-2-3-1 formation. If these three get going, no defence is good enough to stop Manchester United.
