#5 Bring depth to the midfield

McTominay had to fill in the midfield position last term

Manchester United were at times extremely thin stretched in midfield last term. Especially when Pogba and Fellaini were out with injuries.Young Scott McTominay had to be brought in from the youth ranks to solve the lack of options.

This also meant that Matic was heavily relied upon by Mourinho throughout the season. Any injury like the one he currently has would have put United in serious jeopardy. Fred is able to fill in for for Matic, and he will have to do just that for the start of this season.

United have now got a plethora of central midfield options, and the position for some time looks to be settled.
