Mourinho with a point to prove

People in every walk of life find motivation in different ways, and football is no exception. After perceived injustices against his side Wednesday at Old Trafford, United manager Jose Mourinho will have his squad ready to strike against Leicester this weekend.

Expect to see Mourinho utilise an extreme attacking approach, looking to take advantage of a defence that has struggled mightily over the last few weeks.

In their last six league matches, Leicester have allowed nine goals while only scoring one.

The Foxes have struggled to clear out the opposition’s scoring chances effectively, and do not transition into attack as well as they did during their championship season.

A side short on confidence and form is exactly what Jose Mourinho will be ready to exploit Sunday at the King Power Stadium.
