Published by Bleacher Report on Wed, 23 Nov 2016


Manchester United host Dutch teamFeyenoord in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday, in a Group A battle they must win if they wish to progress to the knockout stages.The Red Devils lie third in the table, and anything less than a win would leave them with a mountain to climb in the final match.Jose Mourinho has confirmed he plans to bring summer signingHenrikh Mkhitaryanout from the cold for a rare start at Old Trafford, according to the club'sofficial website.The visitors from Rotterdam are safe in the knowledge that a draw at the Theatre of Dreams would see them retain control of their destiny heading into Matchday 6.Here is how you can watch the vital Europa League game: Date: Thursday, Nov. 24Time:8:05 p.m. GMT/3:05 p.m. ETVenue: Old Trafford, Manchester, EnglandTV Info:BTSport (UK only) Fox(U.S. only)Live Stream:BTSport App,Fox Soccer 2Go PreviewHe has been a total outcast since his big-money signing from Borussia Dortmund, butMkhitaryan is finally due to be centre stage as United attempt to survive in Europe.Mourinho confirmed to reporters the attacker would make his starting XI, per the club's official website.The United manager said:Yes. I told him today [Saturday] that he is going to be involved in the game against Feyenoord. He is trying. Obviously he is not happy but he is transforming his frustration in a good way, which is to close the mouth, work hard and try to adapt.I told him this was not the game for you [against Arsenal] because I don't think he needs 10 or 20 minutes from the bench. I said I think you need a good game and you need to either start or, if not, to come for the second half. He needs less pressure and better conditions for him to express his qualities.The Armenia captain has proved to be a top-class operator in the Bundesliga for BVB, but Mourinho has failed to trust him during his months at United.The 27-year old has played only 107 minutes in the Premier League for his new club, according toWhoScored.com. Hewill finally have the chance to impress his manager when United welcomethe Eredivisie leaders, though.Despite a good run of form, the Netherlands side recently tasted domestic defeat as they lost 1-0 at Go Ahead Eagles on Sunday.United looked solid and composed in their last outing in the Premier League, forcing Arsenal to score a late equaliser to share the points at Old Trafford.The Europa League always appears something of a distraction for United, rather than a trophy they genuinely want to win. However, the champions of the competition find their way into the UEFA Champions League, offering Mourinho and his players added incentive and purpose.Wayne Rooney could also be ready for a start after finding himself in the unfamiliar position of substitute in recent months.The club captain came on against the Gunners at home, and he was clearly ready for the battle as he played an important cameo.Feyenoord know how to beat United, having defeated them in this competition in September. The tournament's official Twitter feed reminded us of the 1-0 victory:Mourinho's opening period in charge of United has been underwhelming to say the least. The Portuguese has failed to get his world-class players in top gear, with United's squad players keeping the Red Devils barely in the hunt for trophies.The Europa League could yet offer the self-proclaimed Special One salvation as he digs for success, and it is a competition United can target with confidence if they haul themselves out of the group stage.United fans are already beginning to wonder if Mourinho can take their team to the next level after spending a fortune in the summer, and breaking the world-record transfer fee to bring Paul Pogba back to Manchester.Pogba has made incremental steps of progression in the past few matches, impressing against Arsenal as he played on the front foot, but United need a whole new level of performance value from the Frenchman if this season is to be a success for the Premier League giants.
