love Matic but honestly he's past it against quality sides in Europe....he's going to be a cup player for the most part or play against some of the lesser teams when we are expected to dominate the ball and he just needs to be there as a covering mid/3 CB
it's clear that Fred isn't great on the ball but he and McT have formed a brilliant partnership and the stats don't lie when those two start together. we have 5 quality midfielders right now and that doesn't include Matic so we just have to find the right balance of when to mix up the two guys in the middle playing under Bruno or Donny |

Matic shit. I think you people are £#%&!ing blind sometimes.
He’s still got the best touch, positional awareness and passing technique of any of our deeper midfielders; he just doesn’t have the legs anymore. Still an asset in what he can do in most games and what he can teach McT in particular. |

People wanting Fred out of the team are absolute
Lad goes at 100mph for 90 minutes. If he was playing against us last night the sages would have been wetting their kecks. But his passing is poor... he isn't there to create, he is there to regain possession and stop the opposition playing. He is superb at it. And him and Scotty McT are the kings of shithousery. Long may it continue. |

Slight issue is when we have struggled to create or break down its your central midfielders who have most of the ball and are expected to start the moves of which he doesnt have the ability to. Brilliant in games on the counter against the "bigger" teams but when we have to break down a team he struggles He also gets caught out easily in a 2 man midfield. Over the course of a season he will have many good games but many bad games. Like most of our players he excels in one department but absolutely shithouses another. He is ok for us now but sadly he wont be part of a 2 man central midfield that wins you the league. ( hope im proven wrong) |

Solskjaer told the club website: “The work off the ball was incredible from all four of them. That’s the basis of the team.
“If you work and work and win the ball in good situations to create chances. Fred covered every single blade of grass on that pitch. “I just hope he recovers for the next one. The squad is good and gives us options – 4-3-3, a diamond, 4-2-1-3 or whatever we want to call it.” |

Can't we just be happy that it feels like we have really solid strength in depth in the midfield for the first time in what feels like £#%&!ing decades?
Matic McTom Fred VDB Pogba Bruno Mata Whichever way you look at it that is an oustanding group of players to be able to pick from... |

i know you've had ex players coming out and questioning why Beek was signed but that list really shows why....and yes it's nice to finally see some depth and strength in midfield
It's a solid solid group but you have two ageing players in Matic and Mata so you bring in a guy like Donny who can play a couple of different roles without really any drop off in ability to perform |
