"Will the real Manchester United please stand up"

I wouldn't call it the game of the weekend, but Manchester United's
trip to Bournemouth will determine how further Jose Mourinho can take
this ailing giant.

Bournemouth welcome United to town but this is the first time their
fans will get to see a real 'Manchester United' side in action.

Mourinho is going to walk out of the Vitality stadium dugout on his
opening Premier League assignment as Manchester United boss. His squad
will be buoyed by the arrivals of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Henrikh
Mkhitaryan and Eric Bailly – with the promise of the suspended Paul
Pogba to come against Southampton next week.

It will be a match that the Red Devils fight to win back their hard to
please fans who will endure this campaign without Champions League
football.

Last time they had no power, no leadership, no character, no fight,
and no hope. Now they have all of it in spades.

I reckon they now have it all. But will they impress against Bournemouth?
