Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur - Premier League

Despite the wealth of international players in his squad, and a World Cup winner in Paul Pogba, none of his team have shown the will to grab and take a game by the scruff of it's neck. There are no Roy Keane's, refusing to be beat, in the 2018 version of United.

Unless Mourinho's big name players turn up for him and his team, then the 2018-19 season could be a very long one for United.
