"More important than his career is his feeling, his family's feeling and also the overall situation with him.   "He's going to have a very good career independently of his international choice – if he has the choice, because maybe Scotland or England don't want to select him, which is also possible. The most important thing is for him to feel good with himself."McTominay's recent rise is a boost for the Old Trafford outfit as they head into a crucial period.  Mourinho's side can move back into second position ahead of Liverpool with a win against Chelsea, though a loss would leave the club level on points with Antonio Conte's side.  Manchester United also face both Crystal Palace and Liverpool before the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie with Sevilla on March 13.</blockquote>
