With Manchester United thought to be close to signing another Brazilians, here is how Jose Mourinho’s men could line up with the two in the team next term.
quick reinforcement at Old Trafford
After losing the Emirates FA Cup final 1-0 to rivals Chelsea at Wembley in May, the Red Devils campaign went from an average season one to a bad campaign.
Despite ending the season second-placed, supporters voiced their annoyance at the pragmatic football Manchester United played during the campaign, while their Champions League campaign ended abruptly with a defeat to La Liga side Sevilla in the round-of-16.
The Portuguese tactician has already secured the signature of Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Fred and he is currently eyeing Anderson Talisca.
If the Red Devils are to eventually bring in the second on loan Besiktas stars, it is likely that the tactician would use him and Fred as part of his strongest starting eleven almost straight away, but how could Manchester United line up?
Spain international goalkeeper David de Gea would, without doubt, retain his place in goal for the team, with a back four of Antonio Valencia, Phil Jones, Eric Bailly and Ashely Young in front of the Spaniard.
The manager might be tempted to play Fred alongside Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic in the middle of the park, with the Frenchman being handed free role.
Jose Mourinho may then decide to play former Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez on the left, Brazilian Talisca, should he join the club, on the right and forward Romelu Lukaku in Centre-forward.
