Manchester United supporters in the Transfer Tavern are thrilled with their start to the season, in addition to their transfer dealings.
The Red Devils have dominantly started the new season, recording three successive victories, scoring ten goals, and keeping consecutive clean sheets.
United’s transfer dealings have been equal cause for celebration, Mourinho’s side identified their targets early in the window and completed the deals swiftly.
Romelu Lukaku has started his United career in a lethal manner following his £75M transfer from Everton. Nemanja Matic has acclimatised himself with life at Manchester.
Mourinho’s treasured Zlatan has agreed to prolong his United career, while Victor Lindelof had been acquired from Benfica to provide defensive reinforcement.
The question that remains to linger on the lips of United supporters is, what is Mourinho’s best starting eleven? Here is our landlord’s attempt.
GK: David De Gea

Spain’s foremost goalkeeper, the ever-reliable David De Gea continues to show why he’s widely considered to be one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
Having kept Real Madrid at bay, the former Atletico Marid man is an absolutely huge presence for the Red Devils.
LB: Daley Blind

The Dutchman operates with confidence on the left-flank, he boasts great tackling and intercepting abilities.
Written off by many of our punters upon Mourinho’s arrival, the former Ajax man brings a vital balance.
CB: Victor Lindelof

United’s new defender is lauded for his cautious and measured approach to his defensive work.
May take a while to adapt to life on these shores, but you can bet your bottom dollar he’ll be a great addition.
CB: Eric Bailly

The Ivorian has the potential to become one of the best defenders in the league; he’s quick, strong and exceedingly physical.
Not all too much was known of him upon his initial arrival though Bailly looks to be worth every penny spent on him.
RB: Antonio Valencia

Ecuador’s right-back has served United exemplary over the years; he plays with great concentration and discipline.
The perfect wing-back and someone our United-mad punters have grown to love over the years.
CM: Paul Pogba

The Red Devils’ mega money signing of last season is beginning to demonstrate his worth, a constant menace thanks to his trickery and creativity.
Will be a club legend, despite the obvious struggles of his first year at the club.
CDM: Nemanja Matic

Serbia’s midfielder has settled well at United, providing his defence with invaluable cover while liberating Pogba.
Looks a steal at a reported £40m and could be the difference between a title or a title challenge.
Wonderful addition.
LAM: Marcus Rashford

This is one of United’s most exciting talents, a lethal finisher who possesses great speed and technique.
Getting better and better under Mourinho, the England international looks like being a big United player in the years to come.
CAM: Henrikh Mkhitaryan

The Armenian playmaker has started the season brilliantly, with five assists in three Premier League games.
While he endured a difficult time of things during his first season at the club, the former Borussia Dortmund man is getting to grips with life on these shores.
RAM: Juan Mata

United’s experienced Spaniard is one of their most influential players; he’s also their best passer of the ball.
An inverted right-winger, the World Cup winner drifts into space that appears to lay between heartbeats in order to wreak havoc.
Who’d have thought he’d become so important under Mourinho?
ST: Romelu Lukaku

Three goals in three Premier League games, the perfect start for the Belgian.
Question marks remain about his footballing intelligence, though it’s hard to be so critical of a man who puts the ball in the net more often than not.
