REDS LEGENDS' AMERICAN FOOTBALL CHALLENGE

Manchester United's official global betting partner, Marathonbet, has been on the hunt to find the ultimate all-rounder among five former Reds stars.

To celebrate the team's trip to the US for Tour 2017, presented by Aon, Quinton Fortune, Denis Irwin, David May, Gary Pallister and Mickey Thomas took part in a series of challenges, during which their skills were put to the test in several American sports.

With Fortune leading the way in the standings after the first three events (ice hockey, basketball and baseball), the penultimate contest saw the ex-Reds battle it out in American football.

OPINION: WHY UNITED ARE PRIMED FOR 2017/18

Pre-season is not about results, it’s about fitness and team building. But let’s also get one thing straight: winning breeds confidence and it’s far better than losing.

When the final whistle blew after 90 minutes at Levi’s Stadium on Sunday afternoon, Manchester United should have departed Santa Clara with a satisfactory 1-1 draw against European champions Real Madrid. But this is America and a nation that does not appreciate 'ties', and so a penalty shootout was ordered in compliance with the International Champions Cup rules.

After a series of unfortunate misses, eye-catching saves and successful spot-kicks, increasingly-bearded goalkeeper David De Gea denied Casamiro to earn a fourth straight tour win for the Reds, after the previous successes against LA Galaxy (5-2), Real Salt Lake (2-1) and Manchester City (2-0).

As we prepare for the fifth and final outing in the USA, against the much-admired FC Barcelona in Washington DC, there is a definite feeling that Jose Mourinho’s men are gaining momentum ahead of an increasingly-fascinating 2017/18 season that promises so much for this improving team.

The manager has repeatedly stated this summer that the UEFA Super Cup on 8 August and the opportunity to lift a trophy is the club’s first priority, much like he recognised the FA Community Shield as a serious target last campaign. He knows that winning – and lifting trophies – is habitual. After claiming three pieces of silverware in 2016/17, everybody is looking towards the next prize.

With that in mind, it is no coincidence that seven friendlies have been organised in a bid to develop match sharpness ahead of the big kick-off. It is a very deliberate move from the boss, and one that could pay dividends in Macedonia next month when Real will provide the opposition once more.

Sunday’s fixture at the 'Theatre of Jeans' was Los Blancos’ first of the summer and that was apparent at times, when United’s work was slicker and more purposeful. The same could be said in Houston when Pep Guardiola’s Blues returned to action and found themselves facing a much-sharper foe. With 15 days and three more friendlies to go until the Super Cup, Zinedine Zidane has time to amplify his squad’s form and fitness. But they will still have fewer minutes in the legs than us when kick-off in Macedonia arrives.

Mourinho has not just concerned himself with matches, of course. His training sessions at the welcoming UCLA facility in sunny Los Angeles were all exceptionally intense and sharp, as he worked the players hard and often twice a day throughout the successful two-week stay in Beverly Hills.

As attendees at the open media workouts observed, each workout was planned with meticulous care and the attention to detail was genuinely impressive. Every station had a clear purpose and offered variety for the players at a time when repetition can quite easily creep in. The days of running laps around the pitch, necking pasta and waving farewell to footballs are long gone.

The City of Angels also offered a very typical distraction for the Reds in the form of celebrity meetings. The Game of Thrones cast visiting the training ground caused a stir among fans of the show, including Paul Pogba and Victor Lindelof, while the presence of Jamie Foxx at an exclusive adidas party in Hollywood prompted our very own superstars to turn into selfie-hunting fans.

The most high-profile guest was undoubtedly Julia Roberts, the genuine A-list actress whose family was twice on the touchline at UCLA and later at the game against Real Madrid. Coincidentally, several club staff stayed at the hotel where Pretty Woman was filmed in 1982, and that was where the likes of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Bruno Mars, Ringo Starr and Iggy Pop were all spotted too.

The company of such stars has added glitz and glamour to the pre-season tour, also raising the club’s profile among those who prefer entertainment content over sport, yet is not the main objective of the summer. It is merely part of the commercial factor that Mourinho understands all too well.

Make no mistake about it - Tour 2017 is all about the manager building a platform for greater success in his second season at Manchester United and the early signs are encouraging.

Yes, fitness remains the key, but the opportunity to secure five wins in the US is extremely valuable.

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho hails 'perfect' pre-season tour to America

* Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is delighted with the Stateside jaunt
* United have played four friendlies in nine days with Barcelona to come this week
* Mourinho will be pushing for the club to return to North America next year
* United have further friendlies in Norway and Ireland before UEFA Super Cup


Jose Mourinho insists Manchester United's hectic-looking pre-season schedule will help rather than hinder, going as far to say as their American tour is 'perfect'.

Complaints about the Reds' fixtures list dominated the end of last season, with the Portuguese's side not only juggling domestic exertions but their run to Europa League glory.

It was therefore a little bit surprising to see how packed their 2017-18 preparations have been, with Sunday's penalty shootout win against Real Madrid their fourth friendly in nine days.


Jose Mourinho does not fear Manchester United's schedule will negatively impact his side

Matches against the LA Galaxy, Real Salt Lake and Manchester City in Houston preceded the Santa Clara encounter, with United then heading to Washington to take on Barcelona in Wednesday's final match Stateside.

Friendlies in Norway and Ireland follow before the UEFA Super Cup in Macedonia on August 8, but Mourinho does not fear the schedule will negatively impact United.

Asked if the air miles being put into his players' legs were a concern, the United boss retorted: 'No, no, no. For us, not a lot of travelling.

'We managed to organise the pre-season in a way where we were based in LA for 15 days, which is fantastic to be always in the same hotel, always in the same training ground.


The United players have travelled a fair bit but jet lag has not proved to be a proble. Mourinho has been impressed with the logistics of the club's tour of the US this summer. Mourinho pushed through plans to spend pre-season in America over the Far East this time

'The flights were quiet, short flights to go to Real Salt Lake, Houston was not a problem, and now we are on our way back home.

'We come here and now we go to DC and DC is halfway home, almost.

'In terms of jet lag, it is halfway home, so these next three days in DC is not a problem, it is just a good thing for us on our way back.

'And after that we have two more matches to play in Norway and Ireland, travelling in the same day, short flights, so I am really happy with our pre-season.

'And if (Juan) Mata and Ander (Herrera) are not a real problem in terms of injuries, I would say perfect pre-season for us.'

United's American tour has certainly gone far smoother than last year's farcical trip to China.

Bureaucracy, disorganisation and bad luck meant their money-spinning International Champions Cup involvement ended shambolically, with the friendly against City in Beijing called off to the quagmire Bird's Nest surface.

Mourinho has long preferred pre-season taking place in the USA, in particular Los Angeles, and will be pushing to come back across the Atlantic next year.

'It is the best,' the United boss said earlier in the week.

'It is the best and I will try everything with my club to be back because, with all the respect, Asia is beautiful, commercially it's fantastic for the clubs, but the conditions to work are completely different.

'Here it is about the facilities, about the organisation and everything is perfect, so we are going to try to persuade the club and Relevent (ICC organisers) to bring us back again.'

JOSE: BARCELONA'S THE BEST END TO US TRIP

Jose Mourinho says matches against Real Madrid and Barcelona are "the best way to finish" the United States leg of Tour 2017, presented by Aon.

The Reds have so far claimed four wins from four during the pre-season visit across the pond and Barcelona are United’s final opponents on American soil, in Washington DC on Wednesday night.

After overcoming Real Madrid on penalties, Mourinho is looking forward to another strong test against a side from La Liga and says he will ensure his squad clock up more valuable minutes ahead of the start of the new campaign.

"It is the best way to finish [this trip to the US]," he declared. "We started by playing against MLS teams which was a very good experience for us because they are in the middle of their competition. Then we got a good English team [Manchester City] and then Real Madrid and Barcelona.

"Real Madrid in the first half almost played their best team. Only Ramos and Ronaldo didn't play. Now with Barcelona, it looks to me that everybody is here with a new manager and new players. So I think it is the best way to finish the pre-season, to play against the best players, the best teams, and it is an experience we want to live.

"Against Real Madrid I had players that played 90 minutes and the same against City. I also had players that played 75 or 60 or 45 and it will be more of the same. [Marouane] Fellaini and [Anthony] Martial played 90 minutes against Madrid so they won’t play 90 against Barcelona. I will do this kind of rotation with everyone again and I am going to play every player.

"I am not obsessed with the result. It's more important to train well and give minutes to everybody. But we want to play and it is good for us. I know that we cannot play Barcelona in the Champions League group phase because we are in the same level for the draw so it is even better to play now."

Mourinho reflected on a highly successful stay in the States and praised the club’s planning and execution of the tour.

"The facilities, organisation, the people in the club work hard, the players work hard... everything was good. The two injuries [Mata and Herrera] were small so if we manage to go home tomorrow with no injuries and everything so well organised like we've had then I'm really happy with the pre-season. It's magnificent."

The United boss was also asked whether he is already starting to formulate his starting XI for the opening match of the Premier League, but he insisted there are many variables involved in picking his team.

"It depends on opponents, it depends on matches, depends on moments," he explained. "The squad is okay and if you manage to have one or two players more then it will be perfect with great balance and lots of options.

"I can't say now that I know the team that is going play the first match against West Ham because honestly I know nothing about West Ham. I just know who they have bought but I haven’t analysed them and I don’t know what to say now. What I can say is we have almost a very good and balanced squad that gives me options and that's good."

RUI PLEASED WITH PRE-SEASON PROGRESS

Manchester United assistant manager Rui Faria says the players are making excellent progress with their fitness regime ahead of the season, following another impressive pre-season victory.

The Reds ran out 3-0 winners over Norwegian side Valerenga on Sunday evening after four wins from five in the United States as part of Tour 2017, presented by Aon.

Rui spoke exclusively to MUTV after the victory in Oslo and explained how the squad has been improving game by game, and in exactly the way Jose Mourinho and the coaching staff had hoped.

“We never look to these matches and just worry about the results,” explained Faria. “Other aspects are more important than the results. Of course, if we can add the result to the performance, it’s always better. The players are doing well, they are doing what we want them to do. Every minute is important for them.

“They know that the matches are big tests for their preparations. They are doing well and we are very happy with all the players and the way they are committed to getting the best performances. In the end, it works for them and we’ll try to have them the best we can for the first important match of the season.

“It’s good to see some players’ improvement in their performance and this match was after coming from the States with people trying to adapt their sleeping to a big time difference,” he added. “So, this game went well. We could give 45 minutes to most of the players and, to some, a little bit more and everything went the way we wanted.”

The Reds claimed the win in Norway thanks to goals from Marouane Fellaini, Romelu Lukaku and Scott McTominay, who netted his first-ever senior goal for United.

“Scott is a good professional and a talented kid, so he knows what he needs to do to have a career and a proper future,” continued Rui.

“We can see that playing football is something that he loves. The tour was very important for the kid because it helps his motivation and belief.”
