Ian: “Last season was all about United getting into the Champions League and re-establishing themselves after David Moyes and Louis Van Gaal. It was fundamentally important for United to get back to a level where people respected them again and Jose Mourinho was perfect for that. This season expectations are higher. They need to be seen as a significant team in the Premier League again and that’s what they are doing. They’ve played better football than people would have thought. They haven’t been great in the last couple of weeks but up to the international break they were scoring goals and beating teams easily at home, playing good football, putting teams away.
