The midfield has certainly been solid, fluid and consistent under Solskjaer than it had been before. The consistency has certainly been brought by the new manager picking out specific roles for each of his midfield players and that has worked a treat for him.

There will certainly be no need for the manager to change the midfield, maybe he may do in part, but not entirely. Fred hasn’t started many games for Manchester United since his arrival and the manager will want to give him some game time so that he may try to get in rhythm with the other midfielders. That will mean that either Nemanja Matic or Ander Herrera may have to be rested in this scenario.

The manager may also opt to start that same partnership that has worked well for him so far and rest one of them in their next Premier League game. There’s absolutely no doubt that the third man in that midfield will be Paul Pogba. He has been in sensational form and the manager will hope that he continues that trend against Arsenal.

Pogba has certainly been the one that has been knitting the midfield and attack since Ole Gunnar’s arrival and the manager will see no reason to rest the flamboyant French star.

Should start a midfield of Matic, Herrera and Pogba.
