While manager, Jose Mourinho keeps complaining about a lack of new signings, his side has finally played a balanced game in the pre-season. After the end of the match, Juan Mata told reporters,

“I think we competed well especially after the accumulation of minutes that some of us have. But  I think it was positive. A positive game. A good experience for the boys that came in the second half so [I am] happy.”

Manchester United are suffering at the moment due to lack of players on the US tour. They heavily relied on their young players throughout the pre-season friendlies.

However, Mata believes, he and the senior players are ready for the start of the campaign and thinks the kids will have benefited from the experience.

“I always feel positive. Obviously, we didn’t have a lot of our players, but I think it was a good experience for the kids to train with the manager, to train with us and to learn what Manchester United represents. We have had fantastic support from U.S. fans always, and now we come back to Manchester ready. We have another game in Munich but [we are] already thinking about Leicester.”

Jose Mourinho was left unhappy with lack of first team players on the US tour.

Juan Mata was not in Spain’s World Cup squad in Russia. He had enough rest throughout the last few months, and thus the player is all charged up and ready to start the new season on high.

“Personally, I’ve been here [in the U.S.] since the beginning. I have the memory when I played World Cups, Confederations Cups, European Championships, you want to come back and be ready, but let’s see.”
