After first semi-competitive game with van de Beek and Garner in midfield, I believe this is about time we create a thread for them à la McFred. They are, after all, our second midfield pairing option for the upcoming season as things stand.
Personally I liked the look of them when they were playing close to each other, although they had some help from Eriksen (a help badly needed from Bruno when McFred plays), they had a few nice moments to play through high press.
I worry more about their defensive game, as Rayo Vallecano cut through our midfield quite easily at times, but Rome wasn't build in a day. They will get a number of chances to prove themselves and improve - after all they are stepping in to replace 3800mins shared equally between Pogba and Matic last season.
So, what are your thoughts?
Will they take Premier League by storm? Maybe you already see them as first choice midfield duo at United? Will James take this pivot position and make it his? How many goals will Donny score from free-kicks this season?
So many questions. Try to stay positive!
