As Manchester United turn their attention from a disappointing Champions League exit towards the FA Cup, we asked the Soccer Saturday pundits whether the club are progressing under manager Jose Mourinho. United failed to convert their stalemate in Seville into qualification as they suffered a shock 2-1 loss in the second leg, meaning a top-four finish and the FA Cup are now their only remaining targets this season.
Mourinho brought the club back into Europe’s top-tier tournament by winning the Europa League last season, while also capturing the EFL Cup in his first campaign in charge. However, with the club breaking the then world-record fee to recruit Paul Pogba for £90m, as well as spending another £75m on Romelu Lukaku, before making Alexis Sanchez the Premier League’s best-paid player, questions remain over whether United’s success and style of play are sufficient.
