Manchester United will head into the 2017-2018 season with high hopes. After some key signings, United will look for Premier League and cup success.

Jose Mourinho has splashed the cash this summer and lured Victor Lindelof, Romelu Lukaku, and Nemanja Matic to Old Trafford. The trio will add to the strength of the spine of the team and hopefully will bring success for Manchester United.

After winning the Community Shield, League Cup, and Europa League, United will have high expectations this season. The Premier League was not a successful campaign for United after finishing 6th and 24 points behind the champions of Chelsea.
