What did he say mate
Said that Rooney isn't a midfielder and will be the 9 or 10. It's obvious that Zlatan will be the 9 though which means their captain will be 10.

He won't play Mata on the wing in a million years and said "I like specialists in their positions" which is why Martial and Mkhitaryan will be their wingers.

Mata is off. Question is, where?

Totally correct reportage of what Mourinho said and spot on interpretation of Mata's position IMO.

I think that we should be in pole position to sign him.

somewhere over the rainbow?
 
After hearing what Mourinho said about Rooney, and the fact they've just signed Ibrahimovic and Mkhitaryan, I think we can be 99.9% sure Mata will be leaving. No way will he spend a season sat on the bench. Time to start believing. He's ours.
 

But where would we play him?

Depends.

Koeman sets up in either a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 more often than not, so probably on one of the wings or as the No.10 depending on the opposition.

However, people are getting too tied down with 'where would he play'.

If he signs, he will be our primary playmaker. Everything will go through him.

To that extent, it won't really matter where he plays as he'll be given a free role to pick up the ball and pull the strings.
