OK, he's not jumping for joy there, but are we starting to see a different Mourinho, starting to enjoy life at United?
Of course, wins always help.
And the other criticism of him earlier in the season was he perhaps didn't know his best side.
Does he now?
Parts of it, yeah.
I mean, the spine of it, I mentioned earlier.
He's got one of the world's best keepers in David De Gea.
I showed that again tonight.
You know, that centre-half partnership has come together by accident almost, hasn't it?
Which, that happens so often in football, you know.
Injuries elsewhere, a couple of players thrown in.
Marcus Rocco was so far on the outside, he must have had frostbite at one time.
LAUGHTER
And now all of a sudden his first choice, whether that will continue is a different matter, but I mentioned Carrick, Herrera and Pogba, that's his first choice, three in the middle of the park, and they're getting to know each other's games and it's clicking.
And up top, Ibrahimovic is the dominant figure, of course he is, he's such a marvellous personality, suits Manchester United down to the ground.
Is he almost the captain head of everything but name?
Yeah, I mean, he's one of those players.
I mean, the forward lads in particular look up to him for what he's achieved and what he's achieving now.
At the age of 35, the drive, the hunger he's still got.
Obviously, this is his first stint in England.
