    According to the papers nine players have been told they can leave on loan or permanently -

    Tim Fosu-Mensah, Paddy McNair, Tyler Blackett, Cameron Borthwick-Jackson.
    Bastian Schweinsteiger, Andreas Pereira, Adnan Januzaj
    Will Keane, James Wilson

    Shame, I thought Fosu-Mensah and Borthwick-Jackson were developing nicely. Perhaps Jose just doesn't like hyphens.

    Why the fk would Fosu-Mensah be on that list? This is why they say Mourinho hates young players. WTF???

    "The Daily Mail says nine players have been told they can leave Old Trafford, on what the paper is describing as “clear-out Thursday”, with World Cup winner Schweinsteiger instructed to train with the youth team"

    In a video featuring Zlatan Ibrahimovic's work-out with his teammates, Schweinsteiger, Andreas Pereira, Adnan Januzaj, Paddy McNair, Axel Tuanzebe and Will Keane were not accounted for.
    Defenders Timothy Fosu-Mensah and Chris Smalling were also conspicuous by their absence, although Fosu-Mensah tweeted he is 'recovering', which suggests he has suffered an injury. Cameron Borthwick-Jackson is currently sidelined with a groin strain.

    Seriously, the DM have just watched a video of us training, picked the players who weren't there, removed Smalling and Tuanzebe to make their claim less obviously BS, and made the claim the missing players are leaving. And you've fallen it <doh>

    At least read the source before feeding the troll...

    He wouldn't be

    he doesn't like Mata though. Can't see what he'd see in Herrera. And where would Young and Valencia fit into a Mourinho team if he gets the players he wants?

    Nope, this is because they say Mourinho hates young players, lazy journalism and only to be expected when a headline is required on a quiet news day.

    Was very good as a youngster but has stalled over the last couple of years through injury. If he gets a run of games and steers clear of injury he will get a decent number of goals for you, don't see him as first choice though unless you play 2 up top.
