Ibrahimovic happy United have ingredients for success

Star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic is confident that Manchester United have all the ingredients for a successful season under new boss Jose Mourinho.

With big things expected of the club after the signing of the Swedish striker and the world record purchase of midfielder Paul Pogba it has been an underwhelming start to the season at Old Trafford.

They sit sixth in the Premier League with five wins and three draws from their opening 11 games but Ibrahimovic believes United’s fortunes will transform over time.

“We have a mix of ages – experienced players, young players, the quality is there,” he said.

“I think we can achieve big things. I said after the Liverpool game and I said it before that we just need to find the ‘click’ where we find each other.

“Every day that goes by, the more you get to know each other and it becomes like a family.

“You know what you need – I know what I need to do to get the maximum out of my team-mates and the same thing on the other side, they know what they need to bring that out of me.

“The pieces are there, we just need to put the puzzle together.”
