Before the start of the current campaign, Manchester United acquired from Everton Romel Lukak for 75 million pounds. The Belgian reached the bottom in 31 of 32 United matches in the Premier League, scoring 15 goals and giving away seven assists.

In the course of the season, Lukaku was criticized for the no-go series, but Jose Mourinho does not intend to buy a competitor in the summer or at least a substitute Belgian.

On the question of whether Mourinho is going to buy a new forward, he replied: "No. If Lukak's competition is higher, then it will be higher for other players, and then they will be unhappy, because they do not play. Therefore, perhaps I will have to reduce the composition and release someone, "said Mourinho.

Jose was asked why there is so little talented Antoni Martial.

"If I were you, I would ask why Lukaku plays every match or why Matic plays every match. But if you want dry answers - I have dry answers. So, the dry answer is that only 11 players can enter the field, and we have 22 ".

"But this is football. You can not have only 11 players. Although it would be amazing from the economic point of view for a football club - to have only 11 players who are not injured, do not get disqualified and do not get tired. It would be better for all to have only 11 players, but this is impossible ".

After 32 rounds Manchester United took second place in the Premier League, ahead of Liverpool and Tottenham by 4 points.
