After beating West Ham comfortably in the Premier League opener with £70m signing Lukaku scoring a double, Mourinho has a wealth of firepower at his disposal this season, according to former Arsenal man Thierry Henry.
'He was close to a hat-trick, he scored goals we expected him to score, and there are bits he can work on', Henry said about Lukaku, who scored twice and lost possession 18 times. 'But what a start to his Manchester United career'.
Lukaku still has room for improvement, according to Henry: 'The possession, this is the thing for me he needs to work on. He lost it 18 times and that is a tiny bit too much. Other than that he had an amazing start. He could have had a hat-trick but he did what he is supposed to do'.
He praised Rashford who, despite not managing to score, was very lively especially in the second half. 'I thought Marcus Rashford had an amazing game. Gary [Neville] said it, the pace they have, the size they have, and today they put the ball in the back of the net', Henry said.
'That was something they were not doing last season. Lukaku was outstanding, Nemanja Matic too, and Rashford was a threat all afternoon'. Henry believes Mourinho now has the firepower up front to succeed.
'Then Martial came on and he had desire. I saw him take that first ball on the left side and he went straight at Pablo Zabaleta. That was something I didn't see at times last season', the former French international continued.
'Pogba scored too and when you have Martial off the bench, the firepower they have and the size, with Matic commanding the midfield, they are going to be amazing', he concluded.
