da blaze casino： After a dismal season under Louis van Gaal, Manchester United fans are eagerly waiting for some exciting changes to liven things up.
da dobrowin： With Mourinho in charge, it’s a sure thing that there won’t any shortage of fireworks on and off the field, as we all saw from his first press conference.
We know LVG didn’t fulfil the potential he had at Old Trafford, but even the most fierce critics of his can’t knock his eagerness to bring in academy players. But, with Mourinho in the corner now, even the most optimistic Man United fans are skeptical about academy players’ chances, and that’s a real worry given the wonderful bunch of starlets coming through.
But here are FIVE that may convince Mourinho to go for youth over experience…
Anthony Martial
There’s no doubt he was one of the best among the outfield players last year – with 18 goals in his debut season, you might argue he was ‘the best’
With dribbling ability, ice cool temperament, fierce speed, relentless and fearless attitude and good work ethic, anyone would bet him to be one of the best around in the not too distant future. He is certainly a versatile player who can play as a centre forward or down flanks tearing apart opposition full-backs, as he has the pace to get behind the opposition’s defensive line.
So far he is definitely justified his hefty price-tag. If all goes well, Man United may have a future Ballon d’Or winner on their hands.
Jesse Lingard
After a disappointing 2014/15 season hampered by injuries, Lingard has announced his arrival in style. He has shown the ability to find the net from time to time, his usefulness in swift counter attack and his wonderful technique.
So with all these traits at his disposal we can say he is a star in the making. If he is allowed a bit more game time he could be deadly.
After all who doesn’t want a goalscoring midfielder in their team?
Marcus Rashford
The last a few months seem to have been a dream for Rashford. Scoring twice in his debut Europa League match, scoring winner in his first derby match, scoring a brace against Arsenal and scoring in his international debut, the youngster has had a wonderful breakthrough.
With his intelligence he foxed esteemed Premier League defenders many times last season, and his combination with Martial was a treat to watch. Can he fit in Mourinho’s side though? The answer is with him only.

Timothy Fosu-Mensah
Van Gaal brought him in from Ajax’s youth system, which is splendid in producing international players.
He is physically strong, good in the air, clean in tackle and boasts genuine mental toughness, so surely has all the raw materials to succeed in Premier League. He can play as centre back, full-back and in defensive midfield, which will be handy for Mourinho as he balances the quantity of games the club will face through the season.
Certainly one to watch.

Cameron Borthwick-Jackson
Another academy product and team-mate of Marcus Rashford. Borthwick-Jackson is quick, has nice defensive ability, is technically very sound and is much stronger than he looks. He has the eagerness to run down the flank, get behind opposition full-backs and make decent final crosses, too.
He has a very calm demeanor and mature head on his young shoulders, and with a bit of faith from his manager we might see some progress from him.
