#3 Ability to comeback from behind

Manchester City v Manchester United - Premier League
Manchester United came back from 0-2 down to beat City 3-2 at Old Trafford this season

The Red Devils made a habit of astonishing comebacks under Sir Alex Ferguson, but those days disappeared after his retirement. We rarely witnessed those magical comebacks, in the last few years, but 2017/18 has brought glimpses of what we missed.

Though Mourinho’s Manchester United was inconsistent this season, they achieved quite a few comebacks wins. A 2-2 draw against Burnley, 2-1 win against Chelsea, 3-2 win against Manchester City, and recent 2-1 win against Tottenham Hotspur are some of the games where United came back to salvage something after conceding early goals.

United's 3-2 derby win will remain in the minds of United fans for a long time.
