I think this is a big reason as to why were not close to City currently and have drawn quite a few games recently. When Pogba's injured (quite frequently over the past 2 or 3 season), we have no one to create. Bruno has helped us a lot over the last year but he runs a lot and is looking very burnt out. Rashford usually creates too but he's looked very poor / injured over the last month or so.We’re really missing him, especially as Bruno looks jaded and is really out of form right now.
We really need another creative option when Bruno wasn’t performing - which was Pogba before he got injured. Fred and Matic definitely aren’t helping - McTominay has been decent but it to that level - van see Beek... who knows.
By comparison City have KDB, Gundogan, Foden and Bernado that can all play AM at a high level. We really need to add some attackers in the summer, whether wide players like Sancho / St Maximin, or AMs on the style of Buendia. There are pickups to be had. Just baffling that someone actively scouted Van De Beek and thought he'd be good for £40m, the lad is worse than Lingard.
