The likes of McTominay and Fred have been given ample time but the duo have not proved to be good enough and therefore, they should mostly be on the bench.

Casemiro formed a world-class midfield partnership with Kroos and Modric at Real Madrid. Will he be a bit a hit at Old Trafford? We shall see.

Here is how Manchester United would line up with Casemiro:
