Manchester United midfielder Fred has predicted that he may be used to help generate attacks this season, rather than be the player to get goals and assists.
The Brazilian has had a commendable pre-season so far, scoring a sumptuous chip in the 4-0 win over Liverpool in Bangkok before putting in notable displays in the three subsequent friendlies too.
Erik ten Hag seemingly decided to start something like his strongest XI in all matches, give or take a few changes. Fred was a part of this and began the match every single time.
