Former Manchester United player (winger) Lee Sharpe discusses why Manchester United could greatly benefit with a Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba partnership.
He stated that this could solve a number of problems for United.
“I think they [Fernandes-Pogba] would have a good partnership,” Sharpe told Sky Sports News.
“You would have to play them with someone who could do the defensive work. Fernandes is a natural forward-thinking midfielder.
“Going forward, I think they can cause all sorts of problems between them. It could be just what United need. It’s been really disappointing with no Pogba this season, I think they’ve really missed him.
“He’s got charisma on the pitch and the creativity he brings to the game – there’s a level of arrogance and ability that brings everyone up to Paul Pogba’s level.”
After missing out on signing a striker in the January 2020 transfer window, Manchester United are definitely suffering now.Â
They’re still on the borderline of attracting top players, but it goes to show just how unorganised the club is at the moment,” added Sharpe.
“At the start of the season, they let [Romelu] Lukaku and [Alexis] Sanchez go who are not bad players at all.
“They don’t replace them then in the January transfer window and miss out on Haaland and then bring in Ighalo.
“This is what upsets fans. You’re letting players go at a certain level and then bringing players in that are not at that level.”
Maybe United could take his advice, afterall.Â
