Every man and his dog knows Manchester United need a centre-midfielder in the summer, but whas is their next biggest priority?
United have been crying out for a midfielder that can dominate games from the middle of the park for years, yet the need has repeatedly been ignored for lavish spending in other areas instead. Often unnecessarily.
It has left them with the often maligned duo of Scott McTominay and Fred as their best option as Paul Pogba doesn't have the discipline to play in a deep role, Nemanja Matic can't start more than once a week and Donny van de Beek never settled at Old Trafford. While both members of 'McFred' have had great individual moments and performances — with the Brazilian, in particular, impressing of late — they have never made for a consistent partnership.
