Man United beats Champions League winner 2-1

The atmosphere around the biggest club in the Premier League has been negative for a while now. Manager Jose Mourinho made some very harsh statements about the board and his team. Even their most loyal fans fear for the upcoming season. The 2-1 victory against Champions League winner Real Madrid might turn this negative vibe around. One thing we do have to appoint is the fact that Man United played with an almost complete first team, while Real Madrid played with 9 youngsters plus Bale and Benzema. So it wasn’t the strongest team, but that can’t spoil the joy for Manchester United. Man United was miles behind their neighbours in the previous Premier League campaign. Teams like Liverpool and Arsenal are very active in the current transfer window, while Man United only bought Fred and Diogo Dalot until now. The manager and their fans fear that this is not enough to win the title this year, let alone compete for the title. They played almost every preseason match with a bunch of youngsters and this isn’t the team Mourinho wants to start the new season with. The Premier League starts in ten days, which means the transfer window closes in 8 days from now. If Man United really wants to buy some extra players, they need to act fast. Good players will get more expensive each day, since those players’ clubs won’t have the time to buy replacements. Manchester United fans will be looking on football news related sites and Twitter for about a week to see if there is any news about their squad. If they won’t buy any new players, Mourinho should find a way to get the best out of his current squad and might need to give some youngsters the potential to grow.
