The United party arrived back at Manchester airport on Friday morning at 3:30am with just over 48 hours to prepare for a vital Premier League game at Swansea on Sunday.

The Reds are desperate for a win in South Wales to stay in touch with the top four.

Mourinho's men are currently seven points off the Champions League places and searching for their first league win since beating Leicester City at Old Trafford at the end of September.

The Special One let rip on his Europa League flops, he accused his players of treating the group game in Istanbul like a "summer friendly" after going behind to Fenerbahce after 65 seconds to Moussa Sow's wonder goal.

Jeremain Lens on loan in Turkey from Sunderland added the second with a stunning second half free kick.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan came under fire again from the United boss. The Armenian made his first appearance in a United shirt since his Derby day shocker at Old Trafford in early September.

Mkhitaryan has made little impact since his big money move from Borussia Dortmund in the summer and his Old Trafford boss has demanded more.

Mourinho will serve his one match ban at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday, after being hit by the FA with a misconduct charge and admitting using abusive/and or insulting words during a tunnel bust-up with Mark Clattenburg on at Old Trafford on Saturday.
