Jose Mourinho: Our focus is to win the next game
Manchester United are without a defeat in their last 10 games across 10 competitions and have won their last three Premier League outings.
Merson believes Jose Mourinho’s side have ‘turned a corner’ after a run of poor form during September and October.

Jose Mourinho has guided Manchester United to three successive wins
The Red Devils face relegation-threatened Sunderland, who have lost their last three league games.
And former Arsenal player Merson only sees a home win for United after seeing David Moyes' Sunderland get thumped 3-0 to relegation candidates Swansea earlier this month.

Merson told Sky Sports: “Manchester United have well and truly turned the corner, they are absolutely flying.
“Sunderland had a big result against Leicester but followed that up with a hammering at Swansea. Swansea are not in the same class as United so I can only see one winner here.”
