#1 Momentum with Manchester United
Jose Mourinho, with his new found stoicism, cut a wise figure at the post-match interview when he said that he neither got depressed after 3 straight losses in the previous week, nor is over the moon with 3 consecutive victories in the following one.
But it doesn’t change the fact that the mini-crisis that was feared at Manchester United has been averted with 3 wins on the bounce, meaning that both Mourinho and his team can now focus all their attention towards dealing with a floundering Stoke City in the weekend.

It was hardly a convincing performance by Manchester United, let alone vintage, but having registered on the points table in the Europa League, Jose Mourinho and his team would be looking to build on their run of victories and look to keep up the pressure on League leaders, Manchester City.
It is still early days in the season, but it wouldn’t have escaped Mourinho’s notice that hard fought and grafting performances such as these, are what successful campaigns are built on.
