Mourinho should give these 3 Man United stars a chance in the Europa League tonight

Henrikh Mkhitaryan

Henrikh Mkhitaryan is United’s joint-top goal-scorer in the Europa League this season alongside striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but with the Swedish star set for a prolonged spell on the sidelines, Mourinho will need the Armenia captain to lead by example in his absence.

The 27-year-old was benched against Swansea on Sunday although did come on for the final ten minutes, which indicates that Mourinho was readying him for their clash with Celta Vigo this evening as he bids to keep the squad fit and fresh going into the run in.

Mkhitaryan scored in both legs in the narrow victory over Anderlecht in the previous round, and with a prolific record in the competition this term, he’ll be the man United look to in a bid to take a lead into the return leg at Old Trafford next week.
