Red Devils star picks his favourite Manchester United XI ahead of Southampton clash
Juan Mata chose a very attacking Manchester UNited XI
JUAN MATA has picked his favourite all time Manchester United XI.
 
The Spaniard travels to St Mary's Stadium tomorrow to take on Southampton (4pm) as Louis van Gaal's side look to get back to winning ways following their 2-1 defeat to PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League this week.
The former Chelsea man has played every Premier League game of United's season so far and is expected to retain his place against Ronald Koeman's side.
The Spain midfielder recently spoke of United's summer transfer signings but none of them, unsurprisingly, feature in his all time XI.
 
"It's very difficult to pick 11 players from the whole history of Manchester United," said Mata. "[But] I think it's a great team. Very offensive but a great team."
Mata opted for Peter Schmeichel between the sticks with Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra playing in front of him.
 
The midfield is an array of talent with a trio of former England internationals - David Beckham, Paul Scholes and Bobby Charlton - plus Welshman Ryan Giggs.
And the leading line for the Red Devils consists of Cristiano Ronaldo, Eric Cantona and George Best.
Goals certainly wouldn't be a problem in that team.
