United's beloved showman
Paul Pogba has really come into his own this season, hasn't he? To give you an idea of his importance at Manchester United, I'll throw in a stat: United's defeat against Tottenham at Wembley was the first time in 37 matches that they lost when Pogba has played. That is a ridiculously great record.

Pogba often looks the complete package with his impeccable passing and ability to pick out a teammate in space. He has been directly involved in 12 Premier League goals for his team from 16 appearances. United are a much better team with Paul Pogba on the field and it is no secret now.

#1 Alexis Sanchez (Forward) - £350,000/week
Sanchez celebrates after scoring his first goal for Manchester United against Huddersfield Town
The contract rebel from Arsenal who has been their best performer for a couple of years joined United in the most high-profile transfer of the January transfer window. A relentless runner and hard worker, Sanchez is inarguably one of the finest players plying his trade in the Premier League.

After snubbing Manchester City, Sanchez looks like he will fit in just perfectly at United. He is being paid some exorbitant wages but as we all know, Sanchez could very well be the man who ushers United to the glory days they were so accustomed to in the past. S if you got the dough, why bother after all?
