Jose Mourinho has named a strong Manchester United team to face Newcastle United.

Manchester United have made four changes for Saturday’s Premier League clash against Newcastle United.

Paul Pogba started the season in decent form, but has been sidelined since being injured in the Champions League against Basel in September. He returns to slot right back into the starting XI.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been out even longer, having not played for seven months after suffering a cruciate knee ligament injury. The Swedish forward will start the game from the bench alongside Marcos Rojo, who is also returning from injury.

Meanwhile, Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been dropped entirely from the matchday squad.

Here’s the team Rafa Benitez has chosen for Newcastle.
