Mourinho should give these 3 Man United players a chance against Watford

Jesse Lingard

Making the pitch big can also be a good way of breaking down a stubborn defence, so Mourinho could call upon the pace of winger Jesse Lingard on Saturday.

The England international hasn’t started a Premier League game since their 2-0 win over West Ham on January 2, and hasn’t netted for the club in any competition since their 4-0 victory over Feyenoord in the Europa League back in November.

Clearly, Lingard is lacking some form, but getting the ball to his feet out wide to cross, take defenders on, or run towards the by-line may be a good way of opening up the Watford defence.

The 24-year-old is yet to net in the league this term, but utilising his pace and trickery could be key to United getting all three points this weekend.
