Marcos Rojo is one player who may not join up with Mourinho's squad in the US. "This is what you work towards, the start of the season, during pre-season".
"I think it was on my personal level needed to play another season regularly and it was good for me as well and I think it's good for the team and the club that I'm more prepared now than a year ago", he added.
