Is Mikhi fine, is Mikhi going to blow your mind, is Mikhi?

    Mourinho has indicated that the Armenian attacking midfielder is fully fit. Mourinho is yet to fit the summer signing in his line-up while suggesting that Mikhitaryan still has some work to do before he can be called upon after recovering from a thigh problem.

    "The situation is that we played with (Jesse) Lingard, with (Juan) Mata and (Anthony) Martial," Mourinho told reporters.

    Following the game on Thursday, "I am not an Einstein, I don't know a tactical system to play with four wingers at the same time. He has to work more to get the intensity and the real fitness to play at the high level.

    "To have him here tonight on the bench and to give him 15 to 20 minutes, like I did with Memphis (Depay), I thought it would be better for him to work the way he did yesterday and much harder, obviously.

    "I thought it would be much better for him to work today, like he did in the specific session, than to wait for his chance. But he is ready. He is ready very soon."

    Should he at least be playing ahead of Ashley Young? I can understand the wisdom in bringing him in gradually but as a fan I'm keen to see him play.

    Mikhi the forgotten man.

    JM got what he wanted: a very strong bench. An ability to change things even we are facing a stubborn defence. We have serious competition in midfield and with Mikhi getting back to fitness, JM should have an abundance of choice. Let's hope he makes the right one.

    I think BTW that JM has not forgiven Mikhi for his dreadful performance against City.

    I agree with that. He seem to be quietly punishing him for that game which should not be the case. Heck, even Memphis has played more minutes than Mikhi. I was really excited when he signed for us and I'm desperate to see him get a good run in the team.

    So you don't think he could play on the right of a midfield?

    Does he have a silent Sch at the start of his name that we don't know about?

    Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin are getting their names changed by deed poll before they're allowed to play. Schweppes the drink have also had their sponsorship at United cancelled. It's simply not tennis!

    Pep? That's a bit harsh mate. Everyone knows Kompany is a ****.

    I was thinking Jose, but keep on feeding his ego mate <ok>

    It's people like you that feed this media circus that he's still a good manager, when in reality he's past it and rapidly in decline.

    Good luck in the Championship!

    The even funnier thing is I have never hated Jose, I have been very consistent with my admiration of him ever since his Porto knocked us out of the CL :emoticon-0100-smile

    I remember you played quite well against us in one game and were pretty good against Dortmund. I also remember the final though :emoticon-0100-smile
