Manchester United v Liverpool - Premier League
Rashford's brace gave United a 2-1 win against Liverpool at Old Trafford this season

However, the last few months tell us a different story. Manchester United defeated Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur in 2018. They were good against these teams, scored goals, defended well and played some eye-catching football in the process.

The arrival of Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku has given him enough quality in the attack, and with a couple of good additions this summer, Mourinho could bring back the real Manchester United next season.
