Looking to get the job done against Mauricio Pochettino's side, Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho picks Zlatan Ibrahimovic to lead the line, with support from Anthony Martial, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Paul Pogba. Veteran midfielder Michael Carrick captains the side, while Ander Herrera is alongside him. At the back, Phil Jones and Marcos Rojo are the centre-back pairing.
