  Mourinho and Ibrahimovic
Manchester United are scared Zlatan Ibrahimovic may leave the club after just one season at Old Trafford.

The Sweden football legend has been outstanding for the Red Devils since he arrived at the summer, scoring eight goals in his last eight appearances for the club – the latest coming as a late winner against Crystal Palace on Wednesday night.

However, manager Jose Mourinho is pessimistic that the former Barcelona star will stay beyond the current season.

According to the Sun, the 35-year-old is already looking at other options and has big money offers on the table from the Major League Soccer (MLS) and the money spinning Chinese Super League.

Mourinho said in a recent interview: “The Zlatan situation is simple. He has a ‘one-plus-one’ year contract. We are happy with him. We are going to execute the option of a second season. After that he can do what he wants to because he is free.

“It’s perfect for him to be here for 18 months more because he is happy, he is committed and loving his career at United. This is probably the last big challenge of his wonderful football career. Then he owns his decision on his future.”

Obviously, Mourinho wants the big Swede to stay but like we’ve seen over the years Zlatan does what “Zlatan wants.”

  The Swedish striker shows no sign of letting up despite his age but the writing is on the wall for his Old Trafford captain who is not missed in the starting XI or squad COMMENT BY LINEARSPORTS The latest signal that Wayne Rooney serves no purpose for Jose Mourinho and Manchester United came not in a game when he played badly or appeared out of his depth but one in which he was completely absent. The United squad stepped off the coach at Old Trafford for their Boxing Day fixture against Sunderland without Rooney, providing the decisive clue that he wouldn’t be involved. He had pulled up with an injury during Christmas Day training and Mourinho is already planning for Saturday's match at home to Middlesbrough without him. "Honestly I don't think so,” he said of Rooney’s chances of recovering in time. “Let's see. It's not a big deal but in four days I have my doubts." He probably wouldn’t start anyway, not the way United are p...

James Milner: From bit part at City to big shot at Liverpool

The 30-year-old filled in at Manchester City, but he is fundamental at Anfield. He may not play in his preferred position, but he does so from one of power Jurgen Klopp had barely mapped out his way to Melwood before he first commended James Milner’s cerebral comprehension of the game.  “A complete football player, the perfect professional, a machine” was the German’s assessment after a 1-1 draw at Tottenham last October; his first fixture as Liverpool’s manager. Right at the start of his tenure, it was apparent on the training pitches at the West Derby complex that there was very little Milner could not do, and even less that he did not understand. With Zeljko Buvac, Peter Krawietz and Pep Lijnders helping Klopp bank the smallest details from every session - supported by the performance analysis team - the decision to utilise Milner as a left-back for the season was logical rather than some elaborate experiment. “It was clear that if Millie was open fo...
