Jose Mourinho on Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Jesse Lingard performance after the derby defeat

Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Jesse Lingard to be dropped for the Feyenoord game:

"The performances are the deciding factor. Performances are the only way that I can decide. So if you are asking me if they are going to play against Feyenoord, then no. And it is not to punish them, it is just to decide in relation to what I have and what do I have? Their performances. So, of course, I am going to play other players.

You never know the way players are going to react, especially when you don?t know them so well and, after only a couple of months, it is too early to know them really well. Let?s speak for example about Mkhitaryan ? how many big matches has he played? The kid Jesse ? how many times has he played big matches? But Ander Herrera came on and he was phenomenal in his attitude.?
