Morgan Schneiderlin still has a lot to prove at Manchester United, says Louis van Gaal

Morgan Schneiderlin returns to Southampton on Sunday with his manager Louis van Gaal reminding him there is a difference between being a proven Premier League performer and a proper Manchester United player.

Schneiderlin started the season in excellent form following his £25million move from Southampton but has been overlooked for Michael Carrick and Bastian Schweinsteiger for their recent matches against Club Bruges and Liverpool
 
The 25-year-old is likely to return to face his former club on the south coast but Van Gaal said: ‘For a player from Southampton, it is a big step to move to Manchester United and get used to how we prepare.
 
‘Very few teams play or prepare for matches the way we do. That is a part of the procedure.
 
‘He is doing very well and I expect he shall improve every week. It is not always easy but he is coping with that because he is a thinker. When you think about the game it is easier to cope. 
 
'He has high competition and it is not easy for him, but he has played more than both Carrick and Schweinsteiger.’

Chelsea won't sign new players - Jose Mourinho

Chelsea will make no signings in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1, with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with their families'. The former Real Madrid manager's side meets Hull City in the Premier league today. Petr Cech will replace injured skipper goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois in the Hull City face-off. Cesc Fabregas is ruled out for suspension and midfielder Nemanja Matic joins the squad after ban.
