Mourinho in no hurry regarding Mkhitaryan

Manchester United (England) manager José Mourinho spoke about not giving enough playing time to club newcomer, and Armenian national football squad captain and midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

“It’s difficult but if Mata is on the bench, you tell me I want to kick him out and want to sell him,” Sky Sports quoted the Portuguese specialist as saying. “I think the others [starting ahead of Mkhitaryan] are playing really well.

“I bought this player [i.e. Mkhitaryan], I have to show the world I was right.

“Because I know he is a super player and I know for sure he will succeed, I am not in a hurry to say he plays every game now from the beginning, to show everyone how good he is. No.

“But he is ready to play and maybe he will play [in United’s away English Premier League clash Saturday with Hull City A.F.C.].”

This match will kick off at 8:30pm, Armenia local time.
