Which defensive midfielder?

Thread should now be about what defensive midfielder would allow Bruno and Pogba to shine while also solidifying the defense

We really should plan on getting a Matic successor this summer. I've seen Mctominay in as the deepest midfielder with Pogba and Lingard and we were easily bypassed in midfield and couldn't control the game. Let's not even talk about Fred playing DM. After Sancho, finding a Matic successor is priority

Absolute priorities are Sancho and an out and out pure defensive midfielder with bundles of stamina and great positional sense that is happy to do the dirty work whilst letting Fernandes and Pogba do their thing further forward.
