Mourinho hails his 'phenomenal' Man Utd players after Real Madrid win

After their tie against Mourinho's former employers, United travel back home and take on Bayern Munich in the final pre-season fixture on the weekend.

Jose Mourinho is not expecting to get what he wants this summer, but the Manchester United manager insists only bringing in one more player is "not a drama".

"People like Herrera, Bailly, Darmian, Mata, all these guys, were phenomenal during the whole pre-season, playing nearly every minute of every game".

Martial has been linked with a move away due to the evident tension between him and Mourinho, but no serious bids have come in for the player, who will not be let go on the cheap.

"Maybe it is a step for me to know the players more than anything". "More or less, I know".

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho says he is confident that the club will sign at least one more player before the Premier League's transfer window closes on August 9.

Democrats have long opposed financing Trump's wall but lack the votes by themselves to block House approval of that amount. The Senate Appropriations Committee, she said, was making progress and working "closely" with the administration.

Mourinho has expressed his frustrations with United's business in this transfer window so far, having revealed that the club has not managed to buy any of his five main targets.

Manchester United opens the Premier League season at Old Trafford in nine days.

But unlike the rest of his team-mates, the Brazilian came out the airport dragging three large suitcases despite only being in the U.S. for just over a week.

But Mourinho, who has bemoaned the lack of established players he has on United's USA tour, says that is too soon after the World Cup and the start should be a week later.

La Liga starts a week later than the Premier League so new Real manager Julen Lopetegui was able to name the likes of Gareth Bale to start while Germany star Toni Kroos was on the bench.
