Meanwhile, the newly signed Brazilian midfielder Fred is a great inclusion in the midfield and he is expected to form a good link with Pogba. Serbian international Nemanja Matic is definitely another essential player of the United midfield who had a notable last season. The defensive midfielder lifted the Premier League title under Mourinho at Chelsea and he will be hoping to do that again at Manchester United.
