Defensive recruits Victor Lindelhof and Eric Bailly have veered from passable to erratic, leaving his managerial successor – or a caretaker, as the case may be – with an enormous mess to sort out.

With all that in mind, here’s your chance to have the final say on Mourinho’s transfer record at United.
