2. Daley Blind-Morgan Schneiderlin:
One more option that Mourinho could use on a consistent basis to achieve similar results to the ones that he got at Chelsea, could be the pairing of Blind and Schneiderlin, at the center of the United midfield. The Dutchman could be back in a defensive midfield role rather than playing as a center-back, with the Frenchman playing in a holding midfield position and occasionally joining the attack at times. If this happens and the new United boss goes ahead with this plan, he might consider signing yet another center-back to add to his squad, though he has Phil Jones amongst his ranks as well.
