Manchester United started the season well with four wins in the first four league games under the management of Jose Mourinho.
However, the Red Devils have failed to win in their last five league outings, only earned two points and are now six points behind joint league leaders Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool.
The Portuguese manager is frustrated and if reports in the media are anything to go by then the former Chelsea boss is going to dump no fewer than three stars from the current Man United squad.
The players in discussion are Morgan Schneiderlin (The Sun), Wayne Rooney (ESPN) and Henrikh Mkhitaryan (The Sun).
Mourinho has an overcrowded midfield at his disposal and he has never preferred Schneiderlin. Hence, it will not come as any surprise if the French international departs.
Captain Wayne Rooney was mediocre last season and his performances have been worse this season. The England superstar deservedly finds himself on United’s bench more often than not and should be sold in the near future as well.
The most shocking news is the potential departure of Henrikh Mkhitaryan. The Armenian playmaker was one of the best stars in the Bundesliga last season and only arrived at Old Trafford last summer.
As per the provided Sun link, the former Dortmund attacker has failed to impress Jose. In all fairness, he has only started one game under Mourinho, had injury concerns and deserves a fair chance. Not to forget we are talking about a player who scored 23 goals and provided 32 assists last season.
In your opinion, should Mourinho sell the above mentioned trio?

One cannot understand why Jose is not playing Mikhytaryan , he has not had adequate time and manager comes to a conclusion or a preconceived notion that he has not impressed him. The manager should give adequate time for the new signings, like in the case of Pogba, who has still not justified himself to the price tag he has.., at the same time you cannot expect Pogba alone can steer a ship single handedly to take it safely. Others should try to be quick learners to know the tactics of Pogba then Pogba can also jell with the rest of the team. Shaw was not up to the mark too, when he came back from the injury. Jose start looking at options such as schneiderlin and Mikhytaryan. If the holding midfielder is good, the team can release Pogba up front to back up the striker and support team.
morinho should give this player a chance to play Mikhytaryan,the guy can play well by holding the midfield tit.And on the other hand of it Mikhytaryan has only be featured on two matches so you cant really judge with that,he need to be given more opportunities to play(playing terms) so pls big Boss do not sell him he is a very important player ,his very good ,he just need to be on the field on regular base then you will see his perfection on the field.pls give him more time
