da brdice： Manchester United got their man and it won’t be long until we see ‘The Special One’ is back in the dugout in the Premier League.
da realsbet： But after an extremely turbulent second spell at Chelsea, Jose Mourinho will hope his time at Man United will be a little more settled. However, controversy always seems to follow the Portuguese maestro around.
On the pitch, there is plenty to do if the Red Devils want to reach the dizzy heights seen in the Sir Alex Ferguson era, and there are certain individuals in the squad have a lot of work to do before the season begins if they want to impress their new gaffer.
So whom are these players in question? Here’s FIVE individuals that need to step up in order to get the Jose’s recognition…
Luke Shaw
It’s a big season on the horizon for young Luke Shaw, who was cruelly ruled out of the majority of the 2015/16 campaign with a broken leg.
He’ll be back to full fitness in the near future, but he’s got a lot of work to do to break back into the Manchester United side. Cameron Borthwick-Jackson did extremely well when he came into the squad, yet it’s expected that when Shaw comes back to full fitness, he will slot straight back into the side. However, he will have to work hard to keep his spot.
Marcos Rojo
2016/17 will be, arguably, the biggest season of Rojo’s career.
His time at Man United has been plagued by individual errors and misdemeanours and he will have to sort this out ahead of the new season. He’s struggled to hold down a permanent first-team berth, too, and some critics still question what position he plays best in.
Marcus Rashford
Louis van Gaal gave Marcus Rashford the chance to shine as his tenure at the club came to an end, and it’s still yet to be seen whether the young prodigy will feature as heavily under Mourinho. But regardless, the youngster will want to impress his new manager and, to be honest, he really doesn’t need to change what he’s been doing. Good application, clinical finishing and blistering pace is what we’ve seen of Rashford, and it’ll be more of the same next season.

Adnan Januzaj
Mourinho once described Adnan Januzaj as a player who “has everything”, so does this imply the outcasted Belgian may be given a fresh opportunity under the former Chelsea manager? Januzaj played as a wing-back, central midfielder and a centre-forward under LVG and the challenge for Mourinho is to find the youngster somewhere to settle. It really is crunch time for Adnan.

Morgan Schneiderlin
Signed for a fee in excess of £25m, Morgan Scheiderlin hasn’t exactly set the world on fire in his debut season at Old Trafford. He’s looked a little shaky in parts and he’s come under fire from some sections of the United crowd on a number of occasions already.
If he’s to step up and impress Mourinho, he really needs to work hard and prove himself to the coaches. But with Mourinho reportedly keen to bring Nemanja Matic to Old Trafford with him, Scheniderlin could be quickly ousted from the squad.
