Juan Mata is known as a maestro in the midfield position for Manchester United. With the club getting Jose Mourinho as the new coach and manager, Juan would have to prove himself again in front of his former boss.

The pair has been familiar with each other, having worked at Chelsea together. The Spanish midfielder is definitely aware of what the manager demands out of a midfielder on the team. Jose has been offered a large sum of 37 million pounds to join and hence, the Portuguese manager has come on board the management of Manchester United. With the club having fallen out of the Premier League this season, Jose definitely has his job marked out for him.
Mata on the other hand has joined Manchester United after Chelsea and now he would have to impress his former manager to be able to secure a position in the first team. He would need to put in adequate efforts to showcase his skills along with others in the team. Mata would have to overturn the previous impression that Jose has of him which might make it slightly harder for him than others whom Jose would be observed for the first time. There are many young players taken onto the team and Jose would have to find the worthy players who can turn the fate of the team around and be able to guarantee positions in the forthcoming championship league games.

Juan Mata, on his defense, has done well since his move to United. He had been given a wide role by the former manager, Louis van Gaal. Jose on the other hand, would have a fixed opinion of what the player can do and it might take a lot of hard work to showcase his skills to Jose. However, this will definitely work well for Mata as well as for the team as well.
