Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho says that his team would need to keep performing on a consistent basis following the international break.
United, who are yet to concede a league goal this season, are scheduled to play seven fixtures in a 22-day period following the break.
"If I have one week to prepare a match, my team is always very good because you have time to organise a week of work, going through every item of the game," Mourinho said.
"When you start playing every two, three days, it's more based on what you build during pre-season. From now, (there are) no more clean weeks, from now every week has a midweek match until the moment we are out of one of the cups.
"Now my team is also the mirror of the work we are doing in clean weeks where we can train five days and close to every item of the game-plan."
