Having spent more than £160m last summer, José Mourinho has dialled down the Red Devils spending this summer. In comparison, they’ve spent £101.75m, but alas the transfer window is still young, and United are still chasing other transfer targets.

Fans will be expecting the Red Devils to finish in a better position than 6th like last season. This pressure will force José to alter his thinking about his current squad in line with the potential replacements he has on the cards.

Here’s how the most successful club in English history could line up in a 4-3-3 next season.

The Ivorian was not able to showcase the height of his talents last season because of injuries and a period away at the AFCON. Now the 23-year old is set to become the heart of Mourinho’s defence for the 2017/18 campaign.
