Central midfielders are always a vital cog in any team. Their role is to find spaces while attacking or close gaps while defending. United have a history of having good holding midfielders.

McTominay has all the qualities to play in this position and build a legacy of his own. He has broken into the first-team this term and has made 20 appearances for the Red Devils this season. Notably, he has started games against big teams this season.

The 20-year-old with Scottish roots needs to start against Spurs as his holding game lends a greater balance to the team. His ability to control the ball and not give away the ball will make United look more compact in defense.
