5 ways in which Jose Mourinho can revive Manchester United

#4 Drop Mkhitaryan and Mata from starting XI

Leicester City v Manchester United - Premier League

Regarded as one of the most creative players in Europe, Mkhitaryan is having a torrid time at Manchester United this season. He started the season well with 5 assists from 3 games but faded off completely after that.

Fair to say, Mkhitaryan never reached the top of his game at Old Trafford. We have seen glimpses of what he can do but he failed to do that on a consistent basis and did not create the impact many expected him to. He may have to do a lot more to deserve his place as United's no.10.

Another player who failed Mourinho this season was Juan Mata. Mourinho deployed him on the right of a 3-man midfield but Mata has failed to impress so far this season. His pace was down and creativity vanished.

In 11 appearances for United this season, Mata failed to conjure a single assist and all he can show was the solitary goal he scored against relegation battlers Crystal palace. With Martial and Lingard in the squad, Mata is out of contention for a place in Mourinho's XI at the moment.
