On Liverpool Game “We didn’t get the result we wanted. We wanted to win and we only got a point so we were not 100% successful and I think you are very fair with Liverpool because Liverpool had a fantastic defensive performance.

“For the first time they played with two defensive midfielders and took a striker off to play another midfielder. The 0-0 result was because two teams were very good defensively.”

On Mkhitaryan “Mkhitaryan was injured, he is not injured any more and is training without any limitations.

“I cannot confirm if he will play tomorrow but he is fit and it is time for him to go back to the levels we know he can achieve.”

Players Confidence "We are on a run of five games unbeaten now,... The players are fine, I think because of the atmosphere & the belief we have."

On Zlatan ”I am really happy. He is giving us exactly what we need from him, what we expect from him.

“He is fit and always ready to play. The young guys look up to him and that’s great because he can only influence them positively.”

Tomorrows Squad “Tomorrow we will play with a team that has a chance to win and if we do not play with a team that is not good or strong we don’t have a chance.

“We have to play with a good team knowing that two days’ later we have to play in the Premier League.”

Luke Shaw will start tomorrow, that’s the only bit confirmed

Mourinho on Rashford playing in the England u21s next summer “The reports didn’t arrive at my office! So we don’t know.

“We are in mid-October. The Championships would be in the summer and we will wait and see what happens. if the player becomes a regular in the senior national team, development in the u21s makes no sense.

“If he is an u21 player then he is an u21 player and there is no discussion. if he becomes a regular choice for Southgate then we have to speak.”

No players are untouchable / cant be dropped On the idea he had “untouchable” players during his time at Chelsea:

“That was 11 years ago, a different Premier League and situation. The best team by far.

“Untouchable in our team has to be the spirit, the commitment, the pride, the commitment to the club, respect to the fans, that has to be untouchable, not players.”

What Shaw had to say on criticism from Watford game “I have said before, I’m a grown man and take what the manager said.

“I’m still young and need to take on board what he says and improve.

“I was disappointed with the result but not what the manager said.”

Shaw on Zatlan “When I came in there was a few big leaders that left.

“But if you look at the squad we have some experienced ones as well as younger players like myself. Ibra brings a lot to the dressing room. He tells so many jokes and everyone wants to listen.

“It’s good for squad morale. I think it’s starting to show on the pitch that we are more together now as a team.”

Shaw on Attacking “Our main priority is to defend. Like against Watford, I can push forward and we get exposed on the counter attack.

“I love to attack but our job is to prevent goals, the attackers have to score them.”

Shaw on RVP “He is definitely a threat. We know what his qualities are but with quality like that even if you know what they might do it is very hard to stop.

“I was able to see how good he was in training and games." “We are focusing on their whole team not one player. We are wary of him but the whole team as well.”
