Jose Mourinho has named an unchanged Manchester United starting eleven against Swansea, retaining all the players that started in the 4-0 thumping of West Ham United last weekend.
The Manchester United fans were expecting Anthony Martial to get the nudge ahead of Juan Mata, as evidenced by the furore upon the declaration of the United lineup on Twitter. However, Mourinho has stuck to his guns by retaining everyone, which means Victor Lindelof will have to wait before making his Premier League debut.
