Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's options this season after a very disappointing summer transfer

#2 McTominay has to step up

With the departure of Ander Herrera and Marouane Fellaini, and poor transfer business leading to no summer signings in the department, we'll likely see a midfield of Pogba, McTominay, and Fred/Matic. Consequences of a poor midfield already surfaced last season, with an ageing Mata and a sluggish Matic being only shadows of their past selves.

This season would certainly depend a lot on the performance of Scott McTominay, who has already planted his feet alongside Pogba. Former manager Jose Mourinho always spoke highly of "the kid", who particularly shone at the end of last season with some brilliant performances, especially in Europe.

Solskjaer also has options to include Angel Gomes, who is one of the most exciting prospects from United's academy. United could be a Pogba injury away from collateral damage in midfield, and United fans hope that McTominay and Gomes can live up to their expectations.
